Medina Food Store is one of several convenience stores competing for the local business in the…read moreimmediate area. It stocks all of the usual staples like milk, bread, confection and soft drinks, as well as a good selection of inexpensive spices alongside the pulses and grains. And of course, there are the usual jars and cans, as well as an unfeasibly large selection of dates! More quirky items, not often seen in this kind of store, include large bags of BBQ charcoal stacked by the door, and a row of glittering shisha pipes racked up on the top shelf closest to the counter. They used to sell Halal meat from the chilled counter at the back of the shop. Sadly, these days this is filled with Arabian-style cakes and confection, as it wasn't feasible to continue stocking it. With the main serving counter at the front of the store, and the chilled counter at the rear, it meant that two people had to be consistently present, which just wasn't economically viable. There was insufficient trade to make this option workable. They tried operating both counters with only one member of staff, but shop-lifting became such a big issue they have been forced to suspend meat sales until they can find a Halal butcher to take the counter over as a separate concession. Somewhat unsurprisingly, the theft of meat is pretty common. It's a high-cost item that people have found increasingly difficult to afford as the recession grinds on. All meat retailers are suffering the same problem across they board; supermarkets and independent stores alike. Peshwan, who was serving when I called in recently, told me that things are looking up. The owner is talking to a butcher at the moment, and so the issue looks like it maybe resolved quite soon.

I saw the glowing reviews and figured it must be good. The restaurant was crazy busy. We were…read moreseated very near our reservation time. I could tell it was a family establishment, and I enjoyed watching the family dynamics as we waited to order. There were several Middle Eastern families in the restaurant, so I knew the food must be good. It was nice watching families come together and eat. Some would go upstairs to the prayer room which I found to be a nice touch to the restaurant. We ordered Baba Ghanoush, Hummus with shawarma, and falafel as starters. They were all excellently made. For mains, we ordered the mixed grill for three and the chicken biryani. For dessert, we had coffee and baklava. I have eaten middle eastern food in many places: LA, New York, Dublin, London, and Dubai. This was the best I have ever had. Period. Bar none. Even though the wait to order may have initially caused me to rate the restaurant five stars, the food and the subsequent service made me rethink that. I did something I rarely do...I pulled the owner and head chef out of the back to give them my compliments. We will return every time we are in Cardiff. P.S. Cash only! But there is an ATM outside the door.

A place of sheer opulence in comparison to the other businesses along this stretch of city road…read more This Middle eastern dining experience has to be one of my favorites, the complete atmosphere of the place transports you to the middle east with the lavish décor and traditional cooking. Stylish sophisticated design has gone into this renovated building with all the care and attention spent in transforming it into a masterful piece of interior design. The private seating gives your table a secluded feel and the service is pleasant and well worth the experience, additionally they are generous with the serving and extras. There is no service charge added, which makes the whole dining that more worth the trip. Food served in what I would imagine is Moroccan style tangine dishes makes the authenticity that more delightfully exciting, especially if you have never experienced this style of cuisine. I would recommend Burj Al Arab to anyone; I look forward to many repeat visits in the future.

Burj Al Arab, when literally translated from Arabic, reads 'Tower of the Arabs', and, somewhat…read moreunsurprisingly, has become a favoured name for businesses around the globe, (particularly hotels... with perhaps the most impressive of these being the Burj Al Arab in Dubai). It is fitting that there is a business of the same name on City Road. This area of Cardiff has a large Middle Eastern community, with Kurdish traders on the street outnumbering any other nationality. The Burj Al Arab on City Road is not a hotel however. It is a very elegant restaurant and coffee lounge that occupies a large property that looks like it used to be a pub. Unlike so many of the pubs in Cardiff today, this building is beautifully decorated in cream and brick red, with individual black canopies fanning out over the doors and windows. National flags of many of the Arab nations line a lintel that spans the width of the building beneath the upstairs windows. Pride of place is nevertheless reserved for the Welsh national flag that sits alongside a green ensign with an Arabic inscription. The food served here is clearly of Arabic origin, with tagines and couscous being the most dominantly featured items on the menu. Delicious!

Our experience here was bizarre. We were seated and waited a little while. A waitress came by for…read moreour drink order but couldn't answer even the simplest of questions about the menu (like: "What's the soup of the day?"). This wasn't a language problem, but a knowledge problem. After several failed attempts, a better waiter came by. We gave our order. A little while later, he came back and said the chef would not accept our order because it was "too confusing" for the cooks. We had asked for two chicken quesadillas and a shrimp quesadilla without the veggies. THAT was too confusing? The excuse was the restaurant was so busy -- yet not even 1/3 the tables were in use. The waiter was nice enough and said he'd understand if we left (which we did) but this has to be the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

There's a great menu and the food is really good. You can make your own milkshake and they are much better than others I've tried from the many shake bars that have become trendy in the last few years. These are more than just a chocolate bar blended into a glass of milk; these are actually full of flavour and great value for money. If milkshakes aren't your thing, they do normal drinks and some lovely smoothies and mocktails. The food is good and there's so much of it! Really big portions and tonnes of chips - it's fantastic value. Because it was lunch time and it wasn't too busy, we sat out the front on some wonderfully funky seats. On further exploration of the restaurant, there's a much more intimate section towards the back. The whole restaurant is beautifully decorated and even the toilets are fancy! It's definitely going to become a regular part of our trips to the cinema. Highly recommended.

If that doesn't bother you, however, the food is really pretty good. Mirchi is a family-run independent restaurant serving traditional Indian and Pakistani cuisine, and they now do home delivery. Some of their best selling dishes include the simple but tasty Tandoori Grills, and their Karahis and Biryanis, but they also do some more traditional dishes such as Nehari, Paya, Haleem and Falouda, as well as glasses of refreshing Mango Lassi. For vegetarians, this is also a good option because there are plenty of veggie dishes to choose from. They have some price busting promotions, too - such as chana biryani for just £3.99, or their special student meal deal of a plate of boiled rice with Chicken or Chana Curry for just £3.50 (until 7pm) - they may not be the most exotic meals on the menu but they are such good value, for cash strapped students it's got to be worth a try!

Nevertheless, Mirchi does deserve recognition. It is a large eatery that serves good food accompanied by decent service. Prices are reasonable for main meals, and they do a selection of really affordable fast food options that are well worth trying, like the Mirchi Special Roll made with Tandooried Chicken Tikka rolled in a nan bread with salad and sauce for £3.50. They also do a good range of really reasonably priced Byriani's, a favourite of mine, starting at £4.90 for the vegetarian option and ending with £8.00 for the prawn Byriani. And, best of all, they do Chai for £1.00 a cup! There's all the usual student discounts, and they have just started doing home deliveries.
