Shomal Kebabs and Curries by Hossein, Trinoma
Saturday, January 23, 2010 1:55Shomal Kebabs and Curries is the new name of Hossein’s restaurant, a restaurant that serves Halal Middle Eastern cuisine. We fancied to try this restaurant after getting used to the taste of Mister Kebab and Grilled Tomato. A little on the expensive side but upon tasting the saffron rice, I then knew the difference between eating at Shomal and the latter two. Mister Kebab and Grilled Tomato serve their kebabs with just plain rice and a small dollop of butter. At Shomal, we’re in for a treat.

Beef Chelo Kebab Solo, Php 295
Beef Chelo Kebab consists of one beef kebab and grilled tomato served with saffron rice. “Chelo” means cooked rice and “kebab” means cooked meat. What sets this dish apart is the saffron rice, fluffy and tender with just the right amount of butter and aroma. In other restaurants, I don’t usually order kebabs and prefers Beef Kheema (ground beef) because I hate tough meat sticking between my teeth. I was surprised with Shomal’s Beef Kebab because it’s so tender and flavorful.
Garlic sauce and chili sauce are also served but because the meat is really flavorful, I didn’t drown my kebab in garlic sauce, and the chili sauce is very veeerrry spicy!

Iced Tea, Php 80
I love the classy interiors of the restaurant, full of character and very relaxing. Especially when you can grab a spot with the hanging curtains with chandelier hanging above, romantic and serene.

I think there are 5 tables with this kind of setting, you can check if you can reserve for them beforehand.
