Was a bit tired to cook and we opt to eat out. Thought of this Turkish restaurant by the name of Aspawa Restaurant which is about seven minutes' drive from our home.At 8.14pm, the external temperature was still at 31 degree celcius. But cool wind has started to blow and winter is setting in.
They have ceiling fans and air-conds (more of air blower) but you won't feel the cold effect. The owners are from Turkey and you could the son's (in 40s) sitting at the cashier counter (more of stucked at the seat). He'll be taking down the orders so that he could record the amount for each table. Not that it was packed but that's the boss.His father would be chatting away with his friend at another table, enjoying life. We were baffled as to how this Turkish family has landed in Sudan, which is quite far. They have managed to settle down here and opened up a eatery.
Their menu showing the the kind of food that a Turkish restaurant may serve.Prost Chicken??? What's that? BTW, it's roast chicken and the price for one whole chicken is 30 Sudanese Pound. Yeah, that's a solid US$15 for one chicken. Out of stock anyway.
We ordered two Grill Chicken Half - 15 Sudanese Pound.
Simple setting in the restaurant ..... just like a restaurant in a small town back home. Over four years of travelling to Sudan, this restaurant has not changed at all.
Our meals came about fifteen minutes later and we ordered a mixed salad too, Sudanese style of course. This salad is to eaten by dipping your bread into it.
Solid grill ................ right into the bone ........ became Charcoal Chicken now. This is Sudan, just thank God that there is reasonable food here.Total cost for the dinner for two guys - 36 Sudanese Pound (US$18).
