Today, my friend came and picked me up to take me to the gluten-free bakery in Hawally called Firin's. Let me tell you now, this place is fantastic. The food is amazing, the people are super kind, and they deliver. I got a few things to try and I ordered some food that will be ready tomorrow. A word of knowledge, they run out of bread loaves, pita, saj, focaccia, and other breads early. Order ahead for pick up or delivery, especially if it is later in the day that you will want the fresh stuff.
What I taste-tested today.
Carrot Cake Muffin- freaking amazing with delicious cream cheese frosting. Complete with frosting carrots, because .... come on.
Chocolate Brownie - Chocolatey goodness that is moist and not overly sweet.
Coffee Cake - I can't even describe. I'll have to wait until I try it again, tomorrow, I might have bought a piece or two for home.
Tomorrow I will get vegan pita bread (white and brown, they have to non-vegan choice as well, but they were the same price so I'm trying these) saj, and focaccia (minimum order to six small pieces so I am getting two plain, two zataar, and two rosemary). Be still by growing stomach. I haven't had bread or cake like things since I got here and I was really sick this morning with a head cold, so I might have done some therapy shopping at the bakery. Such is life.
WAIT!!!
Can't find the prices online you say?!?!?!?! Relax, I couldn't find them either. If you call the store, Nelson, the guy I talked with on the phone and then met at the store will totally WhatsApp you a picture of the price pages. Hopefully it will be up on their weebsite soon, that will make delivery easier for new people, but then people would also probably want to go to the store first anyway.
So glad that you went to the Bakery...:)
