NAAN KABOB

Lamb Kabob

Ground or cubed lamb grilled over open flame until charred outside and deeply juicy within, served with rice and fresh naan

Chicken Tikka Kabob

Marinated chicken pieces grilled until golden and slightly smoky, a reliable crowd-pleaser that consistently earns praise

Mantu

Steamed beef dumplings draped in a tangy yogurt and tomato-meat sauce, a benchmark Afghan dish done traditionally here

Qabuli Palaw

Afghanistan's national dish — slow-braised lamb buried under fragrant long-grain rice with caramelized carrots and raisins

Bolani

Thin flatbread stuffed with spiced potato or leek, pan-fried until crispy and served with yogurt dip — an ideal starter

Tandoor Naan

Fresh-baked bread from the clay oven — pillowy, slightly charred, and the ideal vehicle for any sauce or stew on the table

Shorwa

Hearty Afghan lamb or chicken soup with vegetables and chickpeas — warming and deeply savory, especially in colder months

Beef Kabob

Ground seasoned beef formed onto skewers and grilled, served with rice and salad — a solid alternative to the lamb
