Hadramout menu are mainly
Mandi kambing/ayam (chicken or mutton cooked in oven using special firewood) and
Madhbi kambing/ayam (chicken or mutton cooked on special grill). So here is what we ordered
1/4 ekor Mandi kambing for 4-6 people (served with delicious Mandi rice, 2 bowl of mutton soup, 1 Hadramout’s salad, and coconut with yogurt salad) 88K,
1/2 ekor Mandi ayam 1-2 people (served with delicious mandi rice) 44K, meat sambosa 16.5K, cheese sambosa, musakkaa (eggplant based dish) 22K, roti maryam 11K, roti arab 4.4K, Hummus (chick pea paste) 16.5K, daun anggur (grape leaf
dolma)16.5K mutabbal (eggplant/aubergine paste) 16.5K with mint tea (pot) 27.5K and
kopi Arab (pot) 38K for all of us. The chicken and mutton mandi were served in large trays for us to share. It is easier to eat with our bare hands than with spoon/fork. Overall, I like the mutton mandi very much. The meat was tender (not smelly at all) and the rice was very aromatic. We also enjoyed the roti maryam that is drenched with honey before serving and roti arab to be dipped into hummus. The mint tea was also very satifying. I have never had Arabian coffee before, but it tasted just like a spice drink with a very little hint of coffee. It was a very heartwarming dinner 🙂
This is definitely one of my favorite places to eat in the city. You all have to try it. Haven’t found anything like this up to now.
Hey, I passed this place all the time I never had a chance to visit, although my mind was yanking all the time. So, that’s it, this is the ultimate sign. I really have to pay a visit.
Wuah…pgn nyobain deh… Jenz, mandi kambingnya 88k itu bs bnr2 buat 4-6 org? Gede ga porsinya? Harganya tmsk murah jg ya kl porsinya besar en beneran bs buat rame2. Prnah nyoba Beirut yg di sabang ga jenz? Enak jg tuh!
iya.. cukup untuk 4-6 orang. Beirut di Sabang? udah pernah taon lalu… coba aja cek disini : http://www.jenzcorner.com/weblog/archives/2007/12/beirut_lebanon.php
ooohhh, thanks for the recommendation, i have got to try this place
Maybe tonight is the perfect time 🙂 gotta pay a visit!
sayang, ternyata lebaran berpengaruh ke menu. hanya ada mandi kambing dan tidak ada minuman sama sekali (hanya softdrink)….bad timing indeed. tapi jenz, daging kambingnya seharusnya tender? soalnya pas gw makan, alot tuh….
wah.. sayang skali.. pas waktu gw makan empuk bgt tuh dagingnya.. mungkin waktunya kurang tepat kali.. give it a second try, or call first before you come 🙂
Aduuuuhh aku jd pengen coba,soalnya itu makanan kesukaan ku,bnr enakkan?
oh my. I have to try this one day!
