Are you one of those who would go for an everyday chai chill? Well, if you are one and if you are running out of spots to chill; Koukh Al Shay it is! #ChaiSpots
Koukh Al Shay is an emerging brand having its presence in Dubai and Ajman. The 2 outlets in Dubai are in Satwa and Hor Al Anz respectively. I visited the branch in Satwa which is located right opposite the Hudaiba Awards Building. It sits along with other well-known diners. But what keeps them unique and special is the friendly staff and the hot paratha sandwich they offer. Seating wise they have none, be it outdoor or indoor; thereby making it a quick takeaway option. As there is ample parking available near the outlet, it makes it a good hangout spot. Is it a true #HiddenGem? DEFINITELY would be my immediate answer. They offer a wide range of sandwiches and quick bites. The Drinks section is also strong as they offers a range of both hot and cold beverages. The Hot Drinks section mainly covers the different options of tea and coffee. And the cold section consists of thick smoothies and fresh juices. My personal favorite is the Koukh Special Chicken Chilli Paratha which is priced at Aed 5. If you are an Oman chips fan, they would even do a mix sandwich for an additional dirham. The flavoring of the chicken cubes is hot as they use tobasco and green chilli. There is a bit of thick paste like gravy to keep the sandwich moist and thereby makes the sandwich filling. Another favourite pick is the Nakka Nak mix, which is simply a Hot Dog sandwich with Oman chips and cheese. You could either choose from finger roll or parata as the bread for the sandwich. This again is a super economical pick which is priced at AED 5. Chai is a must with these sandwiches #ChaiFTW. The outlet runs from 5 in the morning to 2 in the night which makes the brand more unique and convenient pick for customers |
