I had to come make a review, my husband and I didn't have an opportunity to figure out dinner until…read moreit was already fairly late, we are staying in Port Aransas, and when we looked on DD to order delivery, nothing in the area was even open, we had a busy day, we are out of town, and hoped to order something healthy vs hitting a drive thru. Hubs tried U.E. And found Sufi Kabob. We are relative newbies when it comes to Indian, Middle Eastern cuisine, he's only had tandoori chicken and I've made my way around butter chicken and tikka masala lol, I know we are very limited in our experience for sure. He found tandoori chicken and order his "usual" and i studied the menu and finally settled on Chicken Shawarma. All I can say is I hurt myself eating wayyyy past the point of full
My meal was outstanding! Let me start with your fragrant, beautifully prepared rice! The flavor is 10/10, and so stunning to look at, the vegetables and fluffy white rice were perfectly seasoned and honestly I could have eaten just that, but then there is a very flavorful small side salad in my box too, I'm telling you, the salad was so good it did not need dressing, lettuce, small diced cucumber, tomato, and onion. The chicken shawarma was absolutely delightful. Here's what's funny, I was worried that wed be lucky to even get a hot meal due to the time we ordered being closing, I was WRONG. My chicken was moist and the fragrant spices made it so good, if you have ever seen the movie "What About Bob" the scene when
he's eating dinner at his doctors lake house...
All the "MMMMMM's" and groaning due to deep appreciation for how delightful the food tasted... yeah, that was me! I do not know how I am going to survive going back home 7 hours from here and not having access to your delectable dishes!
Now my husband dug into his tandoori chicken like a cave man, I'm still giggling, he's a rather reserved man, very polite and has good table manners, but he did not bother with a fork and knife to eat the leg quarters. I was over there saying "oh my gosh this is good" and sort of focused on my out of body experience when I noticed him holding the entire leg quarter and chewing with his eyes closed, he was almost done with his first piece of chicken when I asked if he'd tried the rice or any of the sauces yet, he just shook his head "no" and continued to eat the chicken off the bone, and I decided to mind my business. Oh my, we also got Hummus and naan, so good, I didn't have enough room to eat much so that will be lunch tomorrow, but it was wonderful. So thank you to the kitchen staff that prepared our food, thank you to the staff that packed it up so nicely, even writing the contents of each container on top, and thank you to the owners for being open late enough for us to have a much needed dinner, you are definitely on our must visit from now on when we are in beautiful Corpus Christi!
