Pakistani food is known for rich traditional, full of marvelous and diverse dishes. Being a Pakistani, I feel that it can be difficult to find many dining options with the same unique taste in Dubai or abroad. With that being said, Barbecue Delights is one of the very few options in Dubai that offer lively and stylish yet being family oriented casual dining. There is a hint of Pakistani truck designs and funny phases written on the walls.
I was very excited to review Barbecue Delights for various reasons,
- it is a Pakistani Restaurant
- the first pakistan Restaurant review on my blog
- first Pakistani restaurant tasting
- who doesnt love BBQ goods?
We were greeted and seated by the staff and they already had a menu prepared which I appreciate very much as they were so organised and services were top notch. Our server (I am really bad with names so I can’t remember) suggested, we ate and it all made us happy. What an impressive team!
We had,
Starters
We began with Juices, Salad, Bread and Baba Ghanoush. Salad was acceptable but nothing extraordinary. Baba Ghanoush and bread were great! Also, go for soft drinks, instead of soft drinks.
Grills
- BBQ Mutton Ribs
These delicious mutton ribs were perfectly cooked and not at all dry or rubbery! The marination wasn’t too spicy nor too plain. We did a mistake by asking them to cut it in pieces as that is not how you eat ribs!
- Gola kebab
Our most favourite dish as it disappeared so quickly! The gola kebab were a heavenly combination of textures and taste. The coriander chutney is a perfect accompaniment.
- Malai boti
A tasty, juicy, tender, and delightful treat!
- Chicken briyani– The quality of the rice were fine but it failed to impress my taste buds at all.
- Chicken Karahi -it is truly a comfort food with aromatic spices and cream. It tastes best with tandoori roti.
Desserts
We were highly impressed by the huge fruit platter! Believe me or not, our long mango cravings were satisfied. (My mom wanted to take it home with her) The other two desserts were pleasant as well.
- Fruit platter
- Ras malai And Kulfi
Overall, it was a successful discovery! The delicious discovery reminded us of food back home in Pakistan. Simple interiors but definitely a gem for all the food lovers and very affordable as well. The team, food and ambiance made us and our tummies happy.
