Tinu Menachery: Food

Food is an integral part of every culture and is what often unites people. It'a amazing to see how food cultures are defined by geographical locations. UAE offers a wide array of delectable cuisines owing to its multicultural environment. However, authentic Arab food is easy to find, and I must add it's something that will tingle your palate. It's neither spicy nor bland, neither oily nor dry. It's a perfect mix. I love Arab food, and I must say what I found back in India was not even close to authentic Arab food (not surprised at all).

Applebee’s caters to ‘casual dining’. My first experience was that of beaming staff blinding you with their brightest smile and hospitality, serving food in unimaginable large portions. It was pretty surprising to see the portions, as similar themed dining places do not offer such large portions. My husband and me were positively thrilled at the same.

We ordered for the Caesar trio salad and mango banana smoothie. The salad was described on the menu as a course that would be filling for two; hence we decided to not order more, and that was a very wise decision.

We were told with an addition of AED 3, the smoothie would be served as large, and we took that up as well.

My husband being a foodie was the happiest person on the planet. The meal was scrumptious, flavorsome and filling. The salad consisted of prawns, beef, chicken and mushrooms along with garlic bread and an appetizing salad.

The smoothie was filled with goodness of mango and banana and was served with pineapples and apples.
