We'd been to Majid's Kabab twice during our stay, which is just a walking distance to Las Casitas Inn. When hb brought me here, I was skeptical at first because of the uninviting facade of this tiny sidewalk eatery. I don't know why but I could be a fastidious person concerning the small eateries here in the Philippines.


Honestly, it wasn't something I'm really looking forward to. Anyways, I tried first the Biryani Chicken and Rice (Php 75.00) which was just okay. This set meal is a spicy dish made of chicken, which is cooked tender to the bone and served with aromatic saffron-colored rice and a small serving of Persian salad. The salad is an appetizing cold dish of chopped vegetables topped with lemon vinaigrette. I couldn't finish the set meal so I gave my left-over to hb. :)



Then came the Beef Kabab (Php 30.00) and the presentation wasn't really pretty enticing. I started to nibble the pita bread with grilled beef dish, tomato and white sauce. I gasped instantly in genuine surprise. The juicy ground beef marinated with just the right blend of spices was flavorful and tender. Oh my goodness, the Kabab was divine!


We couldn't help but started to order again the rest of their kababs from Chicken (Php30.00) - a tender lean chicken breast chunks sprinkled with the right amount of seasoning, to Tenderloin (Php 40.00) - slices of tender lean beef grilled to perfection, and Goat (Php 40.00) - a tasty serving of grilled ground meat which is satisfying.


Majid's Kabab is truly a hidden gem with a simple delicious menu of traditional Persian Kebabs and other Mediterranean dishes. Don't let the appearance put you off. Aside from the delicious kababs, the eatery has fast service and affordable menus. If you're seeking a change in cuisine types and the best no-frills eatery in Davao, do visit Majid's Kabab.
