When I see "Persian" in any signboard, I automatically associate it with kababs. It’s one of my comfort food in times of stress and kababs taste sooo good esp when it’s from Majid’s! So I was really excited to see this restaurant (tucked into the side of a prominent hotel here in Dumaguete) in one of my afternoon strolls in Silliman. Of course, I had my dinner there.. I ordered Budget Chicken Curry (budget coz the usual order is HUGE) and I was astonished to be served with a RED curry! I mean, I grew up eating yellow or orangey-colored curry, and now this. I tasted it.. Man, it was FRESH! The sauce was pureed fresh tomato (thus the color) with the usual curry flavor. But with the tangy tomato paste, the chicken curry’s taste was a whole new world for my tongue to savor. It was a bit sour, a bit sweet, a bit magic.. Hehe! The over-all flavor was perfectly blended! Yummy! Still, I wasn’t able to finish the meal coz, even if it was budget size, the serving was still big for me. I have a huge appetite but with a small stomach, I just simply cannot eat beyond its capacity. LOL!

As for the food prices, it’s a bit high than in Davao. Cheapest meals (with rice & viand) start at P70. But considering the huge servings (almost good enough for 2!), the prices are just right. The resto also serves desserts and drinks, the usual kababs and shawarmas (only P25!). The ambiance is great! When you’re inside the resto, you’d feel like you’re transported in a cafe somewhere in Europe. There’s just enough space, pretty homey decors, amazing Indian murals! I really wanted to take pictures of everything but the place was packed with foreigners. I was the only Pinoy there (I was alone) among Koreans, Americans and Indians. So, you see, I had a great "international" dinner! ;p Maybe I’ll do the photos next time.. Coz I will surely come back there!
