kababiya
this place in kolhapur was one that i had a heard a lot about. so while in kolhapur i decided to visit this place for lunch. the place has a small open seating and an indoor seating. a small but well arranged place with a very cozy seating arrangement. the staff too was prompt enough to welcome and take us to a table.
since hunger was taking a toll over us, we did not waste any time to place the order. we started off with soups - manchow and lemon coriander. both were good in taste. later we went with paneer chettinad, chicken pepper and veg seekh kebab. the paneer chettinad was good. it tasted something similar to paneer chilli with some changes. it was less on the spice factor though. the chicken pepper was a black coloured dish which probably had the colour from soya sauce. it was good in taste. the veg seekh kebab was a very dry dish. the taste was good but could not have more than a couple as the dryness took over the taste.
we than asked for paneer lahori gravy and butter roti. the gravy was mild on spice but went along well with the rotis. we than ordered for amuttonbiryani. this too had a good combination of masala and the texture of rice was well cooked too. to end our meal we opted for caramel custard. this was one amazing dish they had. the caramel custard was very creamy with perfect amount of sweetness. the dish was so delicious that we repeated the order.
over all, the restaurant has to work upon its dishes and the taste to survive in the competition where the others are continuously putting forward new, unique and mouth watering dishes to the food lovers. a little more effort will surely help this place to attract more foodies and also repeat visits.
