          Going there later today.

    • Indians don't eat Pakistani rice anyway

      • Apologies, I wasn't aware this deal post was only for Indians…

        • I doubt there is any Woolworths store in India.

    Out of stock at all my local Woolies.

  • Daawat is like plastic

    My experience of Dawaat is very positive.

    Although JV jokes, the grades of Basmati exported to Australia are better from India rather than Pakistan. I haven't tasted a good Pakistani grown Basmati, in Australia. The Indian grown brands are generally good.

  • Cant find any decent rice or even bread in my local woolies these days!

  • If you like this Daawat variety, then check out Indian grocery stores. They are regularly on sale there at similar price.

  • Before anybody goes crazy, Hinata is basically sushi rice. You need to add the sugar, vinegar etc but it's by default a lot more sticky than other varieties. I quite enjoyed it by the end!

    • Yes, it is a bit too sticky for everyday use. I think we made a mistake by buying it.

      • Sushi, Onigiri etc will be perfect with this rice.

        • +1

          Yeah, that was the problem. I assumed it would be something like Jasmine rice. Not so much. I don't make a lot of sushi, let alone 5 Kgs of rice worth.

      • Shift your perspective - it's what I did. I realised that it was not what I was looking for, but just changed my expectations and made meals accordingly. I actually learnt how to make sushi by hand from this mistake!

        If you eat a lot of rice (you have to now), you'll get through 5kg in no time.
