Whenever we go to places, I am always on the hunt of hole in the wall restaurants. I seldom like fancy places to dine to. When going to places, we try to "live" the way people live and eat what's along the sidewalk or make sure that we try what the place is famous for.
I get to be the go to person here in the office asking how to survive in a certain place with a certain budget. Of course, you wouldn't be eating burger and fries when you go to the province and expect to survive in a few days with eating just that right? I think we all differ in terms of travelling. For some, they will book 4 days and 3 nights and go to attractions, attractions and landmarks and some more attractions. While for us, we book a week long vacation to really feel what a local does. We get to go to landmarks and feed ourselves with much history and eat and yet have more time to relax. I think that's why it is called vacation right? You get that much needed break from the monotonous life that you have and break that "hurry" cycle that you are used to. I think you'll appreciate life and what's around you more.
Now moving forward, we took the afternoon flight and arrived around 7pm in Malaysia. What's funny is that there was still the sun, shining, shimmering, splendid! So much for the bat effect. For dinner which was technically our first meal of the day, we had Arab food. We headed to Al-Sofra which is in Damansara Perdana.

Sandwiches ranges from RM 5-12
I had Falafel Sandwhich to go which is one of my favorites! (forgot to take a picture)
The place is relatively spacious and air conditioned. There They do set up a couple of tables and chairs outside during the night if you want to dine al-fresco.
Fattoush RM6
Salad (mixed greens and veggies) with croutons (not in picture)
Complimentary Lentil Soup
Hummus with Lamb RM10
I miss this already. The lamb was perfectly cooked and topped on hummus.
Banana Masoob
Mashed ripe banana and grinded flat bread (rotti canai or pita) mixed with milk and topped cream and honey
It's like eating banana oatmeal but waaayy better!
Lamb Biryani
Oh the lamb... melts in your mouth and seasoned very well.
Pita Bread
Beef Biryani
Chicken Biryani
One of the BEST chicken biryani I have tasted. The chicken is well seasoned and all I can say is yum yum yum nomnomnomnom!
Over all, the price range is a bit pricey but worth it (because they are the only Arab Restaurant in the block)
I'm craving for middle eastern food must-get-one-tonight!
Happy eating!
