| - Edit - best meat samosas in town...yes I said that!
When it comes to Pakistani/Indian food, i'm often pretty disappointed when eating out cause let's face it...not much can compare to mom's home cookin'. That said, if you're craving some great Pakistani take-out...this spot does it right!
I first heard of this place at the halal food fest in Mississauga. I tried their vege pakoras and chicken samosas - on a first bite, my pupils dilated and I was transported back to a happy spot from my childhood. The samosas were fresh out the fryer, overly stuffed with meat and made with the right amount of love and spice to make me want more...
Since then, I hunted down the actual restaurant in Mississauga and have not been disappointed. While they offer a wide array of fresh sweets, appes and dinner items, my go to dishes are the chicken biryani, butter chicken, shahi paneer and a personal favorate - the chicken karhai. The biryani is on par with any other good place, the butter chicken is arguably the best in the city and the karhai chicken is dare i say it...better than mom's! For a guy that doesn't really do much veggies, the paneer dishes were right on point as well...
Recently I catered a tray of chicken biryani. I was told a $75 tray would be good for 30 people (we made 3 other dishes at home). As expected, the biryani was a big hit. The big surprise to me was the serving size for this price - we had nearly half of this huge tray still left over.
While Silver Spoon has good food at good prices, these folks stepped it up another notch and provide great food at even better prices. Check em out...
