Reached here for lunch. Waited for order to be taken while looking around to view and get some quick fresh air from hills behind the restaurant. Ordered simple dishes so that we can get a quick lunch and head back to karak. Unfortunately, the order too more than 45 mins. But i was even more fedup when the people came after us got their dishes already. So i called a lady (takes order) and ask her could you check on my order.
