Mandi Resturant in Karachi The Maskan Mandi at Badar


Maskan Mandi a new Mandi Restaurant at Badar Commercial gets going this season presenting numerous Mandi verities to facilitate Mandi craving of Karachi, Team Karachi Food Dairy visited the place, wasn’t expected the ambience and the place itself to be Arabic interesting, I mean tried to keep it close to Arabic setup so it can give the feel of more authentic, although it’s a small place but quite unique and different with small compartments like rooms with floor sitting arrangement.




Lets come to the Food, Here I need to say Maskan mandi is presenting Good tasty Mandi compare to other Mandi restaurants in Karachi, We were a group of seven persons and ordered two Chicken Mandi (2 person serving), and 1 Mutton Mandi (2 person serving), and two single servings of Sheesh Toukm the quantity was quite enough to cater two people easily, paying Rs.1200 for 2 people serving with a free refill of rice upon need is a good deal.



Talk about taste Maskan Mandi was spot on, although its early days to be check out with masses everyone has its own way of tasting food, the Matton in Mandi was really marinated well and cocked to keep it nice soft and juicy as we can get every flavor of spice in whole chicken, Rice had a very gentle taste too was perfectly cooked, moist with deliciously aromatic flavor and not too simple like boiled rice, apart from their specialty, I really liked the Sheesh touk too and also advise to try it, soft Chicken pieces just like Malai Boti served on pita bread and hummus, in the end in dessert tried heavenly tasty Kunafa, a must order Metha was great to taste buds with some extra cream on the top.






Service at Maskan Mandi was on top, a good customer service management they have with staff carefully providing table services with custom needs swiftly, I wish they keep the same service level even after they hit rush of customers a worth of a visit.

Tiramisu a new place to eat at dolmen Mall Karachi

After spending hours at tough shopping at Dolmen city the eating horse in me was roaring to have some good food, So wanted to check out this new Place “TIRAMISU” at Dolmen City Karachi, a leftest addition of food joint at Dolmen city Karachi, entering in the Restaurant my first Question to the Receptionist was what kind of food you guys offer, and He; Replied “Italian and French” so my thought box decided to give it a try 



Ambiance : The resturant’s setting gave the feel of mix casual and fine dinning look or in between somewhere, Stylish interior had a elegant look for eyes, and lighting was also delightful to watch their Farniture included the comfotable Velvet Sofas, providing perfect comfort, The atterctivly designed Service counter was also well decorated with greenery over it, giving it a noteable look, overall the appearance of the whole place was spot on ambiance did have a Tirmisu touch, but if they add the glass wall to keep the noise out, it will be more good  on scale of ten I would give 9/10


Menu: similer looking menu was on offer no different French or Italian speciality, the Manu was much to a normal resturant offers in Karachi, same varities of Burgers, Pizzas, Steaks, and Sandwiches was on menu, pretty much same what you see in any other restaurants in Karachi.


Food : it was disapointing to see the qauntity and qaulity of the food they offered what is reasonably good in other resturants in Karachi, I odered “Vegetable sandwich” which I though would be a safe choice to start with to a new joint, Quality of taste wise, the freshness was not their. As picture gives an idea that there are barely two sandwiches with those to slim slices of fries. Hardly Lettuce was added, or cucumber or anything that could make a sandwich perfect to the taste buds, the patato cutlet also lacking flavors. The sandwiches were not only dull in sight but also not liking taste, Tomato ketchup also tasted bad not thick enough, the other item on the manue we we tried Beef steak and this and their special fries for starters, not a worthful to against what they are charging for the food. They get 2/10  






Drinks : based on waiter’s suggestion I ordered Tequila sunrise, the taste was not different then a normal regular juice made in every other home, also the quantity was some less to normal, they didn’t had any fine touch of their own, that costed Rs, 235 without tax, with the small quantity.  They get 4/10



Verdict : Tiramisu need to improve food Qaulity,taste, and quantity,  there is no point only charging for good lavish interior which has no significance in a mall, main thing is to provide best tasty food and improve on quantity too

Piccolo Uccello a new Pizza Place in Karachi



Went to this newly opened restaurant called "Piccolo Uccello" and straight away had a feeling that I was abroad.The ambiance and the furniture is very unique and the background music does it's best to give you a French fine dining cuisine feel. We ordered the Cranberry Salad for starters and then the Red Snapper in aluminium foil and the Chicken spinach and feta cheese pizza, everything was cooked to perfection and the texture and taste was truly exquisite and worth the money. Had a chocolate tart for desert which was a perfect conclusion to the meal. This high end restaurant is a must try. Keep it up Piccolo Uccello! Location Main khayabane nishat phase 6
