Zafran introduced their new menu items to invited bloggers and I've found a really great Indian restaurant to frequent. As it is a Landmark company restaurant it's located in Salmiya in the Centerpoint shopping center on the 3rd floor. I've been to Centerpoint to shop without realizing there was a restaurant and sheesha upstairs. The restaurant is nicely decorated with a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere.
We started off with their new pomegranate infused drink, loved it but the seeds kept getting stuck in my straw.
Our "aaloo tikki" combo starter arrived hot and fresh.
These are potato with pureed peas inside.
These are filled with mushrooms and cheese.
Finley minced lamb patties, no chewing required, they just melt in your mouth.
Sizzling spicy lamb kebob, chicken malai tikka and tandoori prawns. The chicken was the best, tender marinated and cooked with cream cheese.
Coconut prawns, a good dish for those who like sweet and spice but not my favorite.
Chicken beriyani, I've never seen it served like this, but really good.
Last but not least, Indian saffron and milk ice cream made from pure milk with spices.
Our gracious hosts, Chef Gaurav Singh, Khalid Khader Op Manager and Stacy, thank you so much for our wonderful experience!
Went here for a great corporate events and they held nothing back. I was starving and am one of those voracious "sampling" type eaters who has to try everything in a buffet, and I couldn't make it!
