Finally! Fanoos finds a Serious Competitor!

                      Siddiqus Kabab Shop
If I ever mentioned that Fanoos was Shady, I am going to have to reconsider that! Recently, while we were on our way to Fanoos, one of my good friends Nidish suggested that we try out another place close by which served Bigger, Better and Juicier rolls than Fanoos! We laughed at the mere thought that such a place even existed and we thought he was trying to pull a fast one on us! But after many unsuccessful attempts at trying to convince us that he was speaking the truth, we finally gave in and decided to experiment! We asked some helpful locals for directions. They immediately seemed to know what we were looking for and after a couple of twisted turns and a deserted Gully and wondering if we would make it out Alive, We finally reached a straight road and could see a Huge Crowd around a dimly lit shop and guessed that it was the "One"! And Lo and Behold, there it was, Dark, Over Crowded and The Shadiest of the Shady! Siddiqu's Kabab Shop! The Board was not even lit properly but you could see by the size of their Customers that They meant Business! The menu lacked the variety of Fanoos and had a few dishes i had never heard of Before but Suddenly, There came a Shocker that brought a Wide Smile to my face! Sheekh Sambo Roll for 67 Rs! That was Unbelievable! At 86 Rs, I thought Fanoos was Value for Money but i was Mistaken! Sheekh Sambo at 67 Rs! That was Fantastic! The Crowd was Crazy and it took us around Ten minutes to get our Rolls! Wow! I would say that Their Sambo is just as Big as Fanoos and Juicy too but the Meat is more Granular and tastes slightly different! The main crowd puller is their reasonable prices and if you are willing to take a few twisted turns to Find the Place, It is definitely worth a Shot :)
