My food journey at Al Farooj Fresh wasn't short of a rich history lesson as I learned about their commendable legacy. The restaurant was born from the vision of two brothers, Sultan and Ahmed Al Mulla, in 1987 after they found inspiration from a trip to the USA. Their tastebuds were tantalized at a KFC branch, and they decided to bring the similar fast-food charm to the Middle East.
Their first restaurant sprouted in Sharjah and now Al Farooj Fresh has created a strong foothold in UAE and surrounding regions. They've gone beyond borders in serving their flame-grilled chicken, which, believe it or not, is marinated for a whopping 24 hours before being cooked. Talk about attention to detail!
Al Farooj Fresh isn't just another restaurant in my book; it's an institution that has received a number of prestigious awards, including the Dubai Quality Award. In 2018, they also ranked among the top 100 F&B brands in the Middle East by Brand Finance - an accolade truly deserved!

Will Al Farooj’s chicken set my mouth on fire?
Ah, the Al Farooj chicken! It's fresh, it's flavorsome, and it's definitely got some spice. Not too spicy to handle, though. The chicken itself has a balanced taste, but it's cooked in a rather hot sauce. So if the spice ain’t your thing, order without the sauce. What really sets this chicken apart is the unique overnight marinade that lets the chicken absorb all the flavor, creating a dish that's melt-in-the-mouth good! Don't shy away from trying the chicken here, the tingling taste is absolutely worth it.
