Reluctantly decided to take my friends advice and give this place a try after hearing about it every time we happen to be in Burwood. Sahara looks a lot classier then most kebab joints with outdoor dining available as well as seating indoors. It offers an open window into the kitchen where you can watch the chefs preparing the kebabs. We decided to order Lamb Kebabs that they cooked there and then as opposed to straight off the rotating chunk of meat. The kebab was served on delicious light wrap and jam packed with fresh veg like red cabbage, onions, tomato and some nice spicy sauce. The kebab had plenty of lamb meat and for $10 I was extremely happy with it. I definitely will order from these guys again.

The Saturday night belly dancing draws a decent sized influx of patrons so get in early if you want a good position. The mixed dip and mixed grill platters are delicious, and generous enough to share with a group. While Sahara's food can easily compete with that of its competitors, the service needs improvement. No matter how good the food is, if it takes over an hour to arrive, customers will not be impressed. The best piece of advice I could give anyone thinking about dining at Sahara is to make sure you order a few drinks straight away. It's easier to milk a cat than it is to grab the attention of a waiter in Sahara. The service isn't rude, it's just not frequent enough. The oversized chairs are comfortable and lend a certain warmth to the place, but their size makes the restaurant feel a little cramped, especially if you're dining with a large group of friends. Overall, a fairly decent restaurant let down by the service.

A large group stumbled out the door singing to some Portuguese song as we tried to enter the restaurant. Happy customers usually means good service and food - tick! Our expectations were pretty high when we waited for our table to be set up. We looked over at the other tables and noticed the serving sizes are pretty generous, with lots of chips on the side. We settled on the whole grilled chicken and pork belly, with a side of polenta. The grilled chicken didn't let us down. It was juicy and full of flavour! The pork belly was a little disappointing, it came out over cooked and tough. All in all, I'd recommend going for the grilled chicken, and pretty much anything that's chargrilled. The other tables seem to enjoy the meat skewers too. I'll check that out next time.

Silvas Portugese Chicken and Petersham are all but synonymous terms, interchangeable with one another in every day conversation. And with good reason - Silvas is said to be the most authentic Portuguese food in Sydney, it's delicious and it's going cheap. Whilst I once laughed at friends who went out for a nice dinner and came back admitting that they'd ended up at Silvas again, I can now understand Silvas magnet affect. Silva's gives you their self-proclaimed 'healthiest chicken burger' with chips and a soft drink for $10.50, or the burger only for $5 (takeaway). Whilst the burger and chips is a little pricier to eat in ($12.50) you're more than welcome to buy your take away burger and eat in on the roadside tables outside the shop. The atmosphere might not be much, but if you've listened to anything I've said, then you'll know you won't be thinking about the atmosphere after your first bite. Silvas also sells a range of salads and rolls, and is particularly famous for its Portuguese BBQ chicken as well (whole chicken $13.50). And to Isty's, my previous Chicken Burger love, I still love you but you should know that there's someone else in the picture now. I know that you're not the same, so I'm trying not to make comparisons between the two of you, but Silvas Portuguese Chicken burgers have opened my eyes to the possibility that perhaps you're not the only one for me.

We opted for the Chilli Cheese Chicken ($34) instead to avoid burning tongue sensations. It was still pretty spicy but tolerable. http://www.yelp.com.au/biz_photos/Axb54IwxKGw1dt5pNWqKbw?select=pXi0XpFPbbbKbHuR_4aktg Ginseng Chicken ($32) was just like normal fried chicken with bits of ginseng on top. This left me a bit disappointed as it was nothing special.

They provide you with gloves, scissors and a bowl full of rice and seaweed. Chop the chicken, mix the rice and roll into balls. They even gave us an extra bowl for free.
