Great selection of weekend Desi nashta for their breakfast menu.
Tried the Desi murghi shorba with kulcha. Very impressive and tasty.
Halwa puri was alright.
Tandoori chai was really nice as well.
Service was decent and the ambience was pleasant seated outside on their balcony.

Texas Chicken DHA Phase 6
2024 Jan 21
Honest review here. Tried this place out after feeling like having Church's Chicken in the west which is known as Texas Chicken in Pakistan.
Firstly, going on an off-peak time and day, there was zero parking in their entire lot even though there were only a couple of customers inside when I walked in.
I was also approached by a beggar at their front entrance steps as I was about to go in and they were shooed away by their attendant.
Was told my order would take 20 minutes even though there were hardly any customers. My order was brought after 25 minutes.
The fried chicken was decent and just like the one from western countries. It was piping hot, fresh, juicy, flavourful and succulent. Full 5/5 on that.
The mashed potatoes and gravy were tasty, though cold. Which considering they were not busy and had a whole bunch of staff behind the counter and at the kitchen idling around chatting, is rather inattentive.
The honey biscuit, again was flavourful; though was burnt in quite a few places, which was quite off-putting.
Again, like most eateries in this city have a tendency to give you packets of ketchup and chili garlic sauce for everything.
I had asked the server since this was a Texas Chicken establishment I was at that if they had the standard Texas Chicken packets of hot sauce and they sounded confused and said they have hot sauce in a cup which can be purchased separately.
I explained that's not the one I meant, which is standardly available at Texas Chicken among other countries which is a vinegar-based, more runny sauce like a Tabasco kind of sauce.
This was as another employee came over to inquire. Was told by them they don't carry such sauce I was asking for.
I also had to let them know I hadn't received my drink which I had purchased in my order and they had to bring that out after almost half an hour wait inside a mostly empty establishment. Again, inattentiveness on the part of their staff which is due to poor management practices with all the aforementioned issues I noted.
Was quite a let-down overall considering its quite more pricey than other competitors and they failed to deliver the same experience I get and expect from Texas Chicken in its main outlet of countries. Rather disappointing and underwhelming, to say the least.
Considering the competition with better menu options, quality, prices and service, I wouldn't be eager to come back to this one til they start making such corrections to the points mentioned above.
Texas Chicken in Lahore and rest of Pakistan really needs to fix these things and up their game in the vast mix of competition for fried chicken places.

Calgary International Airport (YYC)

Very beautifully laid out airport with the beautiful traditional, local Indigenous artwork throughout its interior inside the terminal.
The terminal is enormous, though equipped with adequate signage for easy navigating through each gate zone in the terminal.
Lots of shops and places to eat. Many seating areas to rest and charge your devices, get a nice panoramic view surrounding the airport to the city.
One of the best international airports I had the pleasure of spending my long layover to connect to my next flight during my recent trip and look forward to passing through here again on my next trip in western Canada.
