Ulog# 148 Qilla Restaurant Baguio City, Philippines
Let me take you to a place that I truly enjoyed eating. I remember when I read this restaurant while browsing through facebook, it made me very curios because of all the good reviews, so me and my girlfriend decided to give it a try. This Restaurant is located at Sajj Building, Rimando Rd, Baguio Benguet.
As soon as we got it in, Nadeem the owner welcomed us. He was very accommodating and he made us feel very comfortable in this restaurant. While we were looking through the menu he was telling us what to order and taste. He's a very kind and entertaining person. I already got why the Q in Qilla had a mustache it was because he had one just exactly like that.
The ambiance of this place was very relaxing, the chairs that we sat was very comfortable. They even have a TV and a couch inside this restaurant.
This was their menu, as soon as I got it they said that he dishes that they served were 100% Halal. When I opened it, it showed the different kinds of herbs and spices that they used while preparing their meals. They enumerated each and gave their health benefits in our body system.
They have a variety of dishes with the main ingredients of beef, chicken and vegetables. They also servce paratha, puri , samosa, noddles and dessert. You can also order extras if you want.
For appetizer we ordered Panni Puri. It's a round, hollow puri which is fried crisp and served with flavoured water. We were so curious about this because this was what people were posting about. When they brought it out it, I loved the way how it was presented. Mr Nadeem even taught us how to correctly eat it by mixing the the flavored water first before adding it to the Puri. When I took my first bite of this there was a burst of flavors which I couldn't understand but it really was delicious. I couldn't stop eating it after.
For a drink we ordered Lassi, it's a yogurt drink. It was velvety wherein I said to myselft that I could just drink this all day.
I ordered Chicken Masala with rice . This was marinated chicken in a spiced curry sauce. The chicken was really tender and the sauce was very tasty with all the flavors coming from the herbs.
My girlfriend ordered Chicken Biryani. I kinda forgot to take a photo of the chicken that was hiding under the rice but it was a quarter leg. I was able to taste it and it tasted delicious too. I loved the taste of the garlic, it would have been nice if they added more haha.
When we were ordering dessert Sooji Halwa, but Nadeem said order the Gajar Halwa so we took his advice and didn't have any regrets because it had a rich and creamy taste. I didn't know that carrots could taste this good. This pudding was good that my girlfriend took one out.
I really loved my experience in this restaurant because everything just tasted unique and they were all delicious! Their motto of redefining taste really suited them. They had free wifi. The service there was fast and they were really accommodating, even after dining sir Nadeem sat with us asking how was did we like the food and if there were any improvements that they can make and I said parking because there were only 4 spaces where a car could park and with this food so good I have a feeling that it would always be filled and I though to myself the it would be better to commute go there. I really think this is one hidden gem in Baguio and all the food here was authentic.
