2011-12-27 Quick Visit @ Al Basha

Al Basha on Urbanspoon
We helped out CW by dropping her off at an appointment.  Suddenly, a plan of heading to The Patty Shop popped in my head.  Unfortunately, the Jamaican patty shop was closed.  Buddha Girl was hungry...and when my wife's hungry, she's cranky.  Luckily, I remember that Al Basha was near by.
Since we still had to go for dinner later with CW, Buddha Girl and I settled to share a Chicken Plate.
Buddha Girl just loved this...was it because she was hungry?  Buddha Girl thought the rice was different from other donair shops that I have taken her to.  The chicken was well seasoned, but it was a bit dry.  The hummus had a light drizzle of olive oil on top, which added a nice lift to the taste.  The hummus was creamy and garlicky yet refreshing (perhaps from the lemon juice?), even my wife, who's never a fan of hummus, enjoyed it.  The salad was simple, with a simple vinaigrette.
Generous amount of meat with reasonable price points.  Other than Abdul's BBQ at Crystal Mall, Al Basha has made Buddha Girl's list for donair plates.  This was a good snack for us, now we must head back to pick up CW.  So, where are we going for dinner?
