"Sam's Bohri Zaika" a home delivery kitchen located in Chandivali which is well known for serving authentic and traditional Bohri food. This place is purely home delivery kitchen which has option of seating but need to make advance booking for the same.
We were invited to try out their traditional Bohri Thaal which included Mazedaar Chicken Samosa, Masti Mutton Kheema Samosa, Lajawab Shami Kebabs, Shaandaar Mutton Haleem (Khichda), Bohri Kaari Chawal, Nawabi Kheer (Phirni) and Meetha Pan.
Our experience with the Bohri cuisine started with tradition of tasting pinch of salt before the meal, which is considered to enhances our taste buds as well as cleanse it.
We started off with crispy and appetizing Mazedaar Chicken Samosa and Masti Mutton Kheema Samosa from the thaal. In addition to that mutton samosa had bit smoky flavour.
Lajawab Shami Kebabs, basically mutton kebabs which are well marinated and coated with egg further fried to perfection. One of my favourite from the thaal.
Shaandaar Mutton Haleem (Khichda), a delicious combination of meat, wheat, dal, caramelised onions and ghee. It is served with imli chutney on the side. This traditional Bohri dish is must try one from this place.
Bohri Kaari Chawal, it's coconut and cashew based curry served with basmati rice garnished with caramelised onions. It is available in both chicken and mutton option.
Nawabi Kheer (Phirni), a perfect combination of rice, milk, dry fruits and rose water essence. It was less sweet and not at all heavy on stomach.
Recommendations:- Thaal
Service:- Full marks for the service. You will feel as if you are eating at your own house.
