| - I picked up takeout here for a group at work. Only 1 person had been here before, so he did the ordering and the rest of us had no idea what we were getting ourselves into.
We got Chicken Kabab, Beef Chapli Kabab, Sardari Kabab and Kabul Kabab. I'd only had Afghani food once before and it was not in kabab form, so I didn't know what to expect. The chicken had a yellow colouring, making it look like curry, but it wasn't. It was tender, juicy with great seasoning. This was a crowd favourite.
The beef chapli was INTENSE. It's a beef patty at first glance, get closer and you can see it's jam packed with spices. I had to drink some water and eat some rice to cleanse the palette before diving in again. Be ready! Only a couple people could handle it....I was not one of them. :(
The other kababs looked the same, but were not. They both came with sliced chicken under the kabab. Sardari kabab was spiced lamb. I love lamb! Kabul kabab was made with beef. The seasoning was similar, just need to choose which meat you prefer.
The portions were huge! All came with on giant bed of plain basmati rice plus salad. we ordered 5 meals for 6 people and 2 people had the leftovers for lunch the next day. The rice was plain, was hoping it would've had a little something to it.
They've got a decent sized menu and it's all halal. If you're not sure about something, just ask. They know their stuff! It's a beautiful place, I wouldn't mind going there for a meal now that I know what to order!
