Mindanos

I think I've been to this place just way too many times now xD And I try to test different things every time i go there and this time i ordered Creamy Potato Wedges as an appetizer I believe everyone should at least try them once they are just amazing with all their creamy sauce and I also believe that they use the same sauce in Fajita Nachos and Crispy Chicken too and its pretty tasty and enough for two people.Then for the main course i ordered a  Salsa Rosa Pizza i heard just way too much about it and just had to try it. With  the perfect amount of cheese, chicken, olives and amazingly well cooked Italian crust it hands down is the best pizza I've ever had!!!!! A very cooperative staff and the decor is also amazing. they have outdoor seating on the terrace as well, they've made it look like a small garden it's very pretty and i always Always outside on the terrace , a calm place to enjoy a meal!

Creamy Potato Wedges : around RS.400/-

Salsa Rosa Pizza: Rs. 650/-

If you have not tried this place yet , you should you would not be disappointed at all !! (highly recommended) 

For me it's a 10/10 rating  ^_^

Burning Brownie

This place is an absolute treat <3 It actually is the best place to satisfy your dessert cravings ;) As they have wide range of variety of desserts for you to choose from. Moreover this is a very relaxing  place to sit and enjoy.We tried their cheesecake, caramel coffee crunch and chocolate fudge cake with latte ! I personally am not a fan of the cheese cake but it does have a good taste and is soft and has a silky texture, presented with the strawberry sauce which gives an extra nice flavor to the cheesecake.I personally find it very heavy but according to the rest of the world it's very light and flavor full. Next, the Caramel coffee crunch,it was nice with a thin chocolate sponge layer, coffee flavor with little caramel balls on top and on the inside. The flavor was a bit too strong for me as I don’t enjoy strong coffee flavors in desserts, but over all it was nice.And now, the Chocolate fudge cake (my absolute favorite), which is a cake layered and topped with chocolate fudge.This cake is super  rich and deliciously moist, served warm with vanilla ice cream (a lot of ice-cream ;)) The coffee was absolutely amazing too just as we liked it!

It's a little pricey but truly worth the money !!!

Burning brownie is a must visit place, if you're in Islamabad.

Cannoli by Cafe Soul

Guys have you tried the spicy grilled chicken Panini by Cannoli by café soul? If you haven’t then you should try it out once. The taste of the freshly grilled chicken with herbs is amazing. I love this Panini because it is served with melted mozzarella and jalapenos which makes the taste even more delicious. The price of this Panini is rps 550. It is served with crispy jumpo fries and the fizzy drink of your own choice. Apart from food, the café is located at Beverley center in Islamabad. The café itself is small and has a French décor which makes the ambiance dreamy and it looks like you are in Paris. I’m not exaggerating, give it a try guys you’ll get the feels haha! Their menu covers variety of spicy dishes and desserts. If you are looking for a cute place to dine out with your loved ones, I would highly recommend all of you to visit this place. I’m sure you’ll leave with a lot of cheerful memories.

Secret Sky

Secret Sky a place for those people who look for a calm and a pocket friendly place to go to. It's an open air cafe with more than just chai and fries to it ;) We ordered jalapeno cheese balls as a starter which were really crunchy and yummy and for the main course we ordered the Alfredo pasta and since we're a big pasta fan and are very particular about it and for us they absolutely nailed it!! We also tried their secret star burger which was really saucy with  double patty chicken served with fries , really really tasty! We even tried their Korean fried wings but they had a very sweet sauce with it so didn't really like it but the overall experience was absolutely amazing!! It's even more amazing in the winters as their is a big fire pot in the middle and a place around it for people to sit and usually have an open mic going on about every other day. I highly highly recommend this place!!

the food, the service, the ambiance everything was a 10/10 for me :)

p.s. this place gives out such amazing vibes with all those lighting and decor!

Kabul Restaurant

Kabul Restaurant is one of the oldest family restaurants in Islamabad, for as long as I can remember it has been the go  to spot for beef tikkas for many families of Islamabad. Their kebabs and tikkas are some what part of a meat heaven we all want to be a part of, Their Kabuli pulao is also not to be underestimated for all the rice lovers out there, with a huge chunk of tender beef, raisins and caramelized carrots, it is nothing short of mouth watering. Their Garam Garam Naans with their signature kofta daal and Afghani chutni are just alone worth the visit. They have the most tender, juicy and tasty tikka's in town!!!! 

Taste : 9/10

Price : 580 per dozen

Service :  7.5/10

Ambiance : 6.5/10 (the food does compensate for the lack of ambiance ;)

Cafe Rustic

Cafe Rustic is a very cosy place with an open kitchen. As per them, their food is 100% organic and healthiest of all, probably the reason of the high prices?!We tried their Classic Beef Burger, Chicken burger and Tomahawk Steak! Coming to the tastes , remember when we heard about pineapples in a pizza we were shocked and nobody really liked it this time it's pineapple in a burger .WHAT?! i know rightt at first we thought of not even considering it but try tou karna banta ha? (what worse could it get?) too curious.....haha ! We don't know what made them thought of making something like this but the mix of spices in the marination on the chicken and the sauces somehow went so well together and it did complement the burger. (THEY'RE OPTIONAL GUYS) you can ask them to not add pineapples if you don't like them okay?! xD The patty was really juicy and had a mouthwatering taste.

Their fries were made from sweet potatoes another shocker? yess!! it was a very veryy different experience for us and they were really good!! The Tomahawk Steak we tried was cooked very differently and was served with prawns. Amazing presentation though!In the end we were served with the Hunza Green tea which felt like the cherry on top as it was needed after all that food xD The staff there was very well trained and surely knew how to make and keep customers ;) 

Burger- Rs. 1050/-

Tomahawk Steak - Rs.1900/- ( a bit too pricey )

Our over all experience was really very good but the place is jut very over priced !

Ginyaki

A Chinese lover and still haven't tried Ginyaki ? You are definitely missing out on something really really good my friend! A place that serves your cravings just right. I have almost tried their entire menu and their BEEF CHILLI DRY is my favorite because its just amazingly delicious and as nowadays you can't eat more chicken for obvious reasons....so dear friends this is the THING!! it's sweet and sour taste makes it just amazingg!! The best part here at Ginyaki is  that you get to choose/ make your bowl for your self according to your preferences like if you want to have rice alone or chowmein with chicken or maybe beef it's all up to you to decide, you can even have rice and chowmein together(combo) ! isn't it amazing ?? Additional to their mouthwatering taste and economical prices they have indoor  and outdoor sitting with classy interior with a very aesthetic decor.

There's just one thing to it that it's always crowded like ALWAYS, they should try to expand the sitting area to make more room for more people.

economy bowl - Rs.580/- 

mint Margarita - Rs.199/-

I highly recommend this place to everyone!
