Nirala Sweets and Restaurant
Hey everyone. I came here only for the nihari as I heard a lot about it. It was GOOD. Worth the 45-minute drive to get there.
HOWEVER... the nihari was too thick (like a korma instead of being more liquid). And the meat wasnt as tender and soft as nihari meat should be. We didnt eat the meat and had the gravy only. Thats the reason for the 3-stars... gravy too thick and meat not as soft and tender as nihari meat should be. But the taste was good although the spice level was a tad bit high.
About the service... when i have to remind the staff to bring the stuff I've already ordered, then thats BAD service. They forgot about the lassi I asked for. To make it worse, they also forgot to give the garnish (lemon and ginger) for the nihari. The garnish is part and parcel of nihari and I shouldnt have had to ask for it.
The sweet lassi wasnt lassi at all. It was a cold bowl of yoghurt with some sugar and mixed with a fork. Come on guys.... you cant go wrong with lassi!!!
There were no tissues in the washroom to dry hands after washing them. So you wash your hands clean, then use your clean hands to open the disgusting door handle 🤢 🤮 which some people use without washing their hands after relieving themselves. And whats with the single hand wash sink? At a desi restaurant where most people use their hands to eat? Like come on!
The decor was good. The restaurant was well appointed.

Al Ameen Masjid
Awesome mosque. I loved the gorgeous interiors of the main prayer hall (see photo attached). The basement prayer area is also very large. There is a separate prayer area for sisters.
The masjid has its own parking which is always good.
The masjid may be closed outside of prayer times even during the daytime, so please be aware of that.
