Nice Goto King Cafeteria on Al Falah Street, Abu Dhabi

Cheap and Cheerful Bukno and I chance upon this small eatery along Al Falah Street. The name “Goto King” was familiar as we thought it’s the same Goto King in Dubai. Afterwards, we realized that the name of the eatery is “Nice Goto King Cafeteria” and is not the same management as Goto King in Dubai. Parking space was quite difficult as there were roads closed due to constructions. Once we arrived in the eatery, we were greeted by a staff. Later on, we came to know that he is one of the owners. His name is Mr. Usman and his co-owner is Mr. Mohammed. Both of them from Bangladesh.

Good Value for Money  My husband, Bukno, highly recommended Al Ritaj Restaurant for affordable but tasty chicken biryani and chicken 65.  The Electra St. Branch is a bit difficult to find but I think the easiest landmark is behind Etisalat Bldg. on Airport Road beside Alam Supermarket. The restaurant is like a hole-in-the-wall. Once you park in front, a staff will approach you immediately ask for your order. We decided to dine inside the restaurant. I would commend the staffs as they are very attentive and ready to assist. Restaurant Chicken 65 Chicken Biryani "Peanut Sauce" as Bukno called it. It's tasty but really spicy. Food = 4   😋 Price = 4  😋 Service = 4  😋 Location = 3  😋 Ambience = 3  😋

Budget-Friendly Comfort Food Bukno and I loved that Pinoy Lomi Restaurant and Bakehouse offers affordable and tasty comfort foods like "lomi" and "lugaw". The Tourist Club branch is not that spacious but it will give you a feel of typical carinderia (diner) in Philippines. Unlimited Lugaw = 10 Dhs + 5% Vat Lomi = 10 Dhs + 5% Vat Food = 4   😋 Price = 4  😋 Service = 3  😋 Location = 3  😋 Ambience = 3  😋
