I had the raw meat dish as well the last time I was there. If you close your mind to it, it's not so bad :o)

If you say they serve you a raw meat they must have forgotten to cook it because they are busy serving us! kidding!

Mark says there is a dish there, that is serve raw he can't remember the name.

We definitely enjoy the food and quite stuffed when we left.

Just keep dancing, it will do you good!

It was not kebab or kofta. They serve a wide selection of dishes made of raw lamb meat, and I tried one of them.

he he, you think so?

dude, as i know.. kebab and kofta are only made of lamb NOT beef. i enjoyed the food.

Cheers!

At least you can attest now that the raw meat I was eating was lamb and not indian :)

It's just my baby (Kiara) is not in a good mood, she wants to order a soup but they don't have soup there! so I have to pay attention with her. In the end, she did enjoy the food! she's not a fussy girl she's always willing to try different foods unlike my son he only knows to eat junk food. only food he appreciate in Middle East is "Shwarma" and that's his favorite.

Nice seeing you anyway, although we didn't really talk to each other. next time!

Just keep dancing, it will do you good!

Yes, Kiarajane, my wife told me you waved to her when we were there! The restaurant has a very nice ambience.

Glad you enjoyed it guys. It truly was lovely meeting you all.

By the way, a big THANKS to the manager of Sarai who helped pull this together.

Members who won and couldn't make it, qatari and I'll discuss the situation and see if we can still do something.

I told my husband, it's you behind me and he ask me how do I know? I said we have the same time of booking so I already knew your there, ask your wife I did wave to her!

Isn't that a lovely restaurant?

Just keep dancing, it will do you good!

First of all thank you, Ahmed one more time! The place is excellent, my wife and me really enjoyed the food, the ambience and it was nice to meet Ahmed and his junior.

The place is very good, the prices (although we didn't have to pay anything) are very reasonable, service is marvellous and we definitely will be back once the place is open.

They serve a mixture of iranian, marroquine and turkish food.

Kiarajane and her family were sitting just next to us, although she preferred not to identify herself :)

Thanks a lot Ahmd! and nice meeting you and your wife!

your son is very cute!

Me and my husband and Kiara really enjoys the food in Sarai! We always enjoy Lebanese food especially Baba ganoosh and kebabs.

Surprisingly, the prices are reasonable too!

We both like the music, it's too cool and very calm sort of music, although it makes me sleepy we really enjoy it!

The look and atmosphere of the restaurant is brilliant! love all the design and antique stuff.

We haven't explore that part of Villaggio, now we know, there are restaurant and food court that side of the mall and more shops, it really expanded and became a real a big Mall like Dhahran Mall in Saudi.

Thanks once again!

Just keep dancing, it will do you good!

Hey Terramax, I have seen the restaurant it's right in the Villagio food court, by the pizza express and all the other chains. it's at the end of the little indoor river. okay I realize these directions are horrible; however, there is only one food court. It's right beside Thai chi.

By Terramax• 22 Mar 2007 20:25

First of all thank you Ahmad! And also hope to see the rest of the gang there, just in case you have booked for the same time (8pm).

Can you indicate where the restaurant is? What stores are nearby?

Terramax

PS Is this restaurant somehow related to "Valentino"?
