Dinner at Saba', Cyberjaya

Had dinner at Saba' Restaurant, Cyberjaya - located at Cyberjaya International College precisely.









It was a happening rendezvous. The crowd were huge. Mostly Arabian. Nevertheless, ramai gak Malaysian - that marks that the taste is tolerable to Malaysian taste buds.













It has a wide range of menu - i didn't know what to order...


We had Lamb Hanith (steamed) - RM 15.00











And Chicken Kabsah - RM 8.00

The price - really reasonable.

The Rice
The rice was so banyak - knowing Arab nyer portion. I barely finish half plate.

Just have a close look at the type of rice they used - it is Basmathi. Dah la banyak, sedap lak 2.

It not something like eating our normal briyani Johor nor Briyani Mamak (such as nasi Bukhara n such), it's really different. Comparing it will be like comparing apple & orange - a different type. The briyani doesn't come with gravy or any kind of dalcha. It comes with a sauce (something like sambal - really hot) & some kind of acar. Eventhough it's a bit dry compared to our local briyani, it has a moist texture. So u hardly feel the dryness.

The Lauk
Tender & moist. The taste was mild and not to spicy... Normally it's difficult to find soft meat when it comes to red meat (beef or lamb), but the lamb that we had was really soft & tender.


The Beverage
We tried Barbican - it's a non alcohol, Carbonated Malt drink.. A popular demand in Saba'. Probably it's signature drink...
Lemon & Raspberry Barbican (RM3.00) but we preferred the Raspberry


The Ambience

Normal scenery of Saba' - always so packed. Have to fight for seats... LOL. Nice place to hang out, especially for Shisha's lovers...

One good thing that i liked about this area is it OKU (Orang Kurang Upaya / disable) friendly.

note :
An incident happened here. We foolishly left something really valuable at the seat and realized it only an hour later. Almost lost our breath. Drove back there and syukur Alhamdulillah, it was being kept by the Restaurant Manager, En. Rahman. Thank to the Myanmar waiter who found it and passed over to the Manager. He is really honest. A very good worker... Pray for his well-being...

Btw, wouldn't want 'the incident' to happened again... Choi!!!
