Rooster's - Lahore

The best friend chicken so far. Your taste, quality, quantity, recipe everything just great. The only problem was the smaller seating area where they worked. But this place is a must if you love food, and if you are here to visit Lahore.

This place was too long on my radar, but could not get a chance to visit it earlier. Finally, this wonderful place visited and they are simply amazing. Their speciality is the Arabic spicy broast served with frits, garlic dip and rolls. There is another similar place in Lahore that goes under the name Dujaj, but I find Roosters much better.

Some people say it's the local Al-Bik when I heard the hype, I wanted to try. You have a small seat like 3 tables and some tables outside. I ordered a deal of 560 RS it had 4 chicken pieces, pommes, 2 buns and coke. And yes a garlic Mayo Arta sauce that was delicious. Serving time was on the higher side. About 30 minutes because I think they roast fresh. The taste was good, it is near Al Baik and very unique compared to local fried chicken.

Okay. So I tried Rooster's chicken broth after some waiting for more and more positive feedback from people I trust. It was good. It can be compared with the ingenious chicken broths in Saudi Arabia, perhaps not comparable to Albaik, but it was good, thoroughly boiled to depth, not to eat too oily, not very dry, just the way it should be. The crust of broast was separated and somewhat crispy, with deep maritions of spices inside, not only in the crunchy, but deep in the chicken. The accompanying frits were also good, thick and not crispy, but still not as tender as they should be. Also the garlic sauce (dom) was simply perfect in taste, although it was a little casual/liquid compared to Albaik or other local breasts in Saudi Arabia. Overall a little smaller chicken in size, not a wing piece, but several legs and there is no Pita bread, but a burger-back with it. The price is also correct. Less than 400 for quarters, less than 600 for half and less than 1200 for full chickens. Oh, yes, and they also have the spicy broast. The place was clean, airy, it was almost full at 10:30, but not yet clogged to sit with the family. It is not a beautiful place but an OK and convenient to eat.

One of the best Saudi style broast that you can have in Lahore. Nice and comfortable seating area. The taste was great, i have tried this many times and it never disappoints at least up-till now. This broast has a wonderful blend of flavours injected into their meat which is well cooked. Though the prices are a bit high. They should work on making it more economical. Thumbs up.
