Baraka eat house

I was in town running errands and had to catch up with some friends before leaving Port Harcourt the next day, so we planned to meet up and chill at Yogo Berry.

On getting there, I realized Baraka Eat House (Grill) was just across the road. 

I excused myself and walked across into Baraka to place a quick order of Ribs and Chips which totally amounted to 3800 Naira. Before walking out, the well mannered and polite waiter asked if I wanted it  as take away. I nodded and he said that it would cost an extra 300 Naira. I was stunned but I paid regardless and went back to join my friends at the Froyo Shop.

Just before we were all done, I went back into Baraka to pick up my food and to my greatest surprise, both chips and ribs were wrapped in foil paper. I mean, where is that even done?

I was really upset by the packaging and then I asked the waiter if this is how their meals for takeaway are usually packed and he responded "yes"

I was absolutely disappointed that such a classy place would have really low and appalling packaging of food. I was in a hurry and didn't want to rant and make a scene so I took my food and left.

On getting home the chips was really soggy and I had only just tweeted a few days ago about soggy chips😒

The ribs on the other hand was well seasoned and really juicy and I enjoyed every bit of it. 

Rest assured, I wouldn't be ordering take out from there. I'd rather wait and eat my food there.

Baraka is located at:33 Apara Road Off Evo Road GRA  

PORT HACOURT and just across from it is the amazing Yogoberry.

Eastern Garden Chinese Restaurant and Bakery

 

 I've been in and out of Port Harcourt all my life and I never knew Eastern Garden was not just a pastry shop, but also a Chinese restaurant.

I happened to be around Aba road with my dad and we stopped to get custard bread (which is absolutely lovely) and then I realized they also had a Chinese restaurant on the side. So we stopped by to give it a try.

Eastern Garden is located at No 1 Ogbunabali West Layout, Aba Road Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

They had polite waiters and attendants, the environment was neat and the furniture was properly arranged as well. 

I had the Shrimp Fried Rice and Pork Sauce which took over 45 minutes to be served *gasp*. I was properly hungry by the time the food arrived. 

Thankfully, the meal was really tasty and generously served although I picked out all the shrimp from my rice.

I had my tummy full and even had enough as take away.

Their meals were reasonably priced for a Chinese Restaurant but I must say that I really did not fancy waiting that long for my food.

I recommend Eastern Garden for birthday and family dinners.
