Agra


After a long time trying Agra restaurant again This time I visited them for the Ifthar offer for 4🌟LKR 3300 per person.
They had 2 varieties of Mutton / Chicken we went ahead with mutton  
                                
The setting of Agra depicts a maharaja concept of the center of the corridor you got a stage during the weekend classic music will be played while you dine on Indian cuisines. most of the décor depicts brass/copper, in a dim lit environment.   
                      
                                                     Chicken Ifthar menu included 
                                            6 pc of dates 
                                                         M chicken biryani 
                                       1 Naan 
                                                          2 vegetable samosas 
                                              1 faluda 
                                            1 chicken kanji for 1 person which is quite a lot!

Let's begin with dates and kanji. The kanji traditionally had coconut cream, but there was also some parsley added for color and a hint of flavor.
samosa with potatoes inside


 

While the taste and appearance of the biryani were excellent with chunks of meat. There was chicken gravy for the naan as well, which appeared to be hot but actually far from it. It had a very distinct flavor. 
quite a lot of raitha was provided to give that cooling effect of a long fast which had hits of cucumber and other cooling spices.



4🌟The peshwari chicken was cooked and had a light spice rub when we ordered extra parata. It was filled with melted cheese. This was so filling that I was unable to eat more than one piece

FUN FACT 
Which food is famous in Peshawar?


Although these kebabs can be of any kind of meat, locals traditionally use lamb meat. Other main ingredients include different herbs and spices such as chili powder, coriander leaves, ginger, coriander or cumin seeds, green chilies, corn starch, salt, and pepper.

4⭐️The soup prawn 

A white creamy broth, with aromatized seafood is a cross between kanji and a soup 

5⭐️Assorted naan basket LKR 2000
The cheese naan in that basket it a must try 

3⭐️Plain paratha LKR 500 
Not the typical Paratha what I expected, it was more of a healthy twist and not at all fluffy, 
3⭐️Choora paratha LKR 500
The same with jeers added for that extra healthy look 👀 

5⭐️Tandoori chicken (half) LKR 2750
Was perfectly grilled and well seasoned 

5⭐️Kandahari dhal LKR 1500 
Slow cooked creamy black beans, with aromatized gravy 

5⭐️Goan fish curry LKR 2750
This curry had a taste of tamarind/amchur with coconut milk with the taste of sweet onions. 

4⭐️Chicken tikka masala LKR 2750
Not my favorite, but others said it was very good. This dish had diced chicken with orange creamy spiced sauce, which is sweeter than my liking 

4⭐️Masala chai 
Just a good cuppa chai with aromatics 

3⭐️Gulab jamun 
It tasted more out of a tin than freshly made, just like the rasagulla

5🤩 Crystal Prawn Dumpling LKR1500  MUST TRY  🤤 Simple but i loved it! Glistening in a pearl-like sheet, these dumplings are a visual feast. Delicately wrapped, each bite reveals a succulent prawn, offering a taste as light as the ocean breeze. 5🌟 Chicken Scallops and Chives Dumpling LKR1500 Shaped like an ear, with a slight roast enhancing the hidden, lightly flavored meatball. A vibrant presentation adds to the overall experience. 🤩 Sweet and Sour Garupa LKR7000  MUST TRY  The star of the table, initially intimidating with its head and eyes. Despite the initial scare, guests devoured it like a salad. Fried in a light batter with a golden syrup bath, the fish body surprises with a bone-free, crunchy delight. The hint of pineapple, sweet corn, and the crunch of bell pepper leave you yearning for more. 🤩 XO Fried Rice with Scallops and Prawns LKR2900  MUST TRY  A loaded delight with prawns and egg, making additional side dishes nearly obsolete. 5 ⭐️ Sich...

Kaikos - No tax

Brightly lit and featuring a play area for kids with various toys and activities, this space aims to evoke nostalgia with its old Sinhala songs reminiscent of an old Kade. Staff Are nice and welcoming  3.5 ⭐️  Salmon Cheese Sandwich (700/-)  A basic sandwich served hot, with the perfect amount of spice. Although the cheese was hardly noticeable, I'll definitely order this again. 4.5 ⭐️  Latte (650/-)  A perfectly crafted, regular latte without sugar. It’s just right. 4 ⭐️  Coconut Latte (750/-)  I initially thought this would be made with coconut milk, but it’s a regular latte topped with desiccated coconut flakes. Slightly sweeter than the regular latte, it's pleasant but not something I’d order again. 3⭐️Club Sandwich – 1000/- The fries accompanying the sandwich had an unpleasant aftertaste, suggesting that the oil used for frying was subpar. The sandwich itself fell short of a true club sandwich. While it featured multiple layers, the meat—possibly ...

Central all day dining- Shangrila buffet

New year dinner for 4 pax without taxes - 50,000/- (12,500 per person)  It was undoubtedly a crowded evening at the Central Cafe in Shangila. We had booked appointments to eat there during the celebrations for the new year. As in usual days they have a variety of menu, but they yet again made it extravagant.  There were several meat carvings, including hog, turkey, and fish, along with a wide selection of sauces, veggies, pickles, and condiments and not mention the ice carvings that one can admire inclusive a cheese fountain.      In 1971, Malaysian entrepreneur Robert Kuok introduced the Shangri-La chain of hotels. The first Shangri-La hotel debuted in Singapore in 1971, and since then the company has grown to include hotels all over the world under its renowned luxury hotel brand. Consequently, you will find some foreign chefs and management maintaining the international standards and it also  adds a Singaporean and Hong Kong touch in their menu. Even tho...
