It was late, we were all really hungry so we decided to go to a nearby place, Gazebo in Citicenter Ajman. We thought that we were making the right choice. We wanted to have seafood and that's what we ordered. For starters, the Menu was tooo lonnng, I don't understand what they were trying to achieve through that looonng menu, personally I don't like going through an endless menu. Anyways after reading the dizzying menu, we ordered Prawn Biryani, fried Pomfret, fried Hamoor and Sarson saag. We were told 25-30 mins which seemed like a long wait but we had no choice. Soon it was 45 mins and we had nothing on our table! We kept asking and reminding the waiters about our order, they seemed lost. After a long wait the food was served... we were famished so we started instantly. Suddenly my younger son shows me a hair from the fried Pomfret, I told him maybe it's yours and didn't pay much attention to it. After about 30 seconds, he pulls out another one, now that freaked me out and we all started checking the fish... to our extreme disgust, we found a third hair and that was it for us... we called the waiter, he seemed in a daze and didn't know what to say or do! He went and called his Manager who was equally bad if not worse... he also went into some kinda shock and seemed speechless. He took the fish away and disappeared. Ideally we should have got up and left but as I mentioned earlier, we were hungry, so we moved on to the Prawn Biryani, the prawn was undercooked and the rice didn't taste like biryani, Wow! I decided to try the Sarson saag,... it was full of cream, who puts cream in Saag??? Again, Disappointed! Left that as well! So, now we had nothing left on the table except the fried Hamoor, reluctantly started eating that, no surprises there, it seemed like the chef coated it with the all the masala he could find, the fish was lost somewhere in it! Now it was out turn to be shocked, we really couldn't understand what we experienced and what we ate. It was the worst dining experience, and that too when we were really hungry. As it was late night and most restaurants were closing by that time, we just returned home in disgust. Gazebo isn't a restaurant I'd recommend to anyone and I'm not going anywhere near it! You are of course free to try at your own risk, also leave your taste...
