Firozian Checkmates Your Hunger

Haven't you noticed? Indian restaurants have been growing out of nowhere.
If you missed the first two episodes, links are here: Episode #1 and Episode #2.

Setting: 
At Don Jose Avila Street in Capitol Site in the city of Cebu lies this little tea house which houses five low tables with little divans and a bunch of pillows, and two chess tables that double as a dining table.

Soundtrack: 
Indian music

Cast of characters:
Ms. Chinni Chicken
Don't let her fool you. She can catch you off guard: she is both sweet and racy.

Mr. Durum 
A hefty, meaty man but is really chicken inside.

Ms. Lassi 
You can call her Rose. She is the best lassi in Cebu.

The Frugurts
Ms Strawberry Frugurt and Mr Mango Frugurt are a smooth couple
who are cold and sweet at the same time.

Little Gulab Jamun
Don't let his size fool you. He can overpower the Frugurts...in the sweetness category.

Capt. Baklava 
A tough man who smells a bit like cinnamon and is a little nutty. Not my most favorite character.

Chips
The extras made an appearance for free.


More characters I have yet to get to know:
 
Especially the Teas. It is their house after all.


Did you know?
The Firozian staff knows how to play chess.

  2. I've been there too and didn't like my lassi and gulab jamon. Maybe I should try the food sometime. Looks good. :D

    1. Really? I actually liked the lassi! Not so much on the desserts (and to think I love sweets). I've seen Taste of India but it hasn't lured me into it yet. How's the value for money?

  3. I have wanted to try out Middle Eastern Cuisine. All this lassi talk got me excited. Added to my list. :)

  5. love the way you wrote this post! :) The cast of characters is funny! Firozian could possibly be the best Indian restaurant here in Cebu, not that we have many choices around.

  7. This is one of my most favourite Indian places. I almost always order the butter chicken when I go there. Their tea is really good too!
