Shurpa Soup | JoinMe - Food Review Malaysia

This restaurant is definitely worth a visit with it delish spread of Pakistani cuisines that are set to warm you from the bottom of the heart. The fact is that not many local eatery that actually serves good Middle Eastern fare, let alone those that could actually prepare the dishes deliciously in the authentic way. The setting of its interior is spacious and comfortable, with al fresco section available at your preference. The specialty of Shurpa Soup lies in the fresh ingredients used like lamb, carrots, potatoes and some light touches of herbs. It is very rich in herb taste and fragrant, accompanied by the tender lamb meat which is very soft and delish in stimulating your palate. Besides, the carrots also lend a hand in some natural sweetness with the soft boiled potatoes. Worry not as I barely detect any goatish smell in the soup :D No wonder it is one of the chef recommended dish. Caesar Salad Guess it’s time to give out little tummy some time-out. And so, we have this refreshing Caesar Salad that comes with lettuce, homemade croutons, Parmesan cheese with egg and garlic naan stick (Yeah, you heard me right, rather than the conventional cheese stick :P ). The greens are very fresh and crisp, that are nice to go along with its light dressing as well. Don’t forget to pair it with the accompanied Naan stick for some kick! Guess this is a pretty cool and creative fusion of salad then. Our taste buds are surely non-stop being wetted with scrumptious food such as this Lamb Mandi. I must really compliment the Mandi rice, which is especially double thumbs up, apart from its succulent lamb meat. The elongated rice is slightly longer than the usual rice grain, but having a better texture that offers diners a plethora of herb fragrance, even when eaten just like that. This Arabic Mandi is so awesome that you won’t feel oily at all. Oh, not forgetting the next hero which is the Lamb Mandi, where the meat is baked in Yemeni traditional way with Arabic spices till soft and tender, then served with Mandi rice and garlic mint sauce. The meat has no goatish smell at all. Later do I know that the meat is actually baked on top of rice, using special stove with the inhouse spices, that in a way, allow each grain of rice to be thoroughly infused with the fragrance of herbs as well as the juices of the lamb meat too. Wonderful!
