De Afghanan

We came on a Thursday night and there were 3 other tables. The food took a while to come out, so just be prepared. We each got a chicken pea and potato appetizer for free, but I didn't eat much because it was super sour. We got: *Potato Bolani ($9.99, 3.5 stars) - I've discovered that all Bolani comes with large portions :) however, this was definitely the biggest I've seen (see picture). We've had it for 3 meals already, and there is still 1/3 left. The Bolani is pretty blend, so it's a good food to eat with dips or meat. *Chaplee combo (4.5 stars) - Chaplee is ground meat (usually beef) formed in thin patties and seasoned with chili flakes and other spices. The version here was delicious because of the crispy browned edges. I would stuff a small piece inside the Bolani and dipped it in yogurt sauce. *Kabuli pallow (3.5 stars) - This is one of my favorite Afghan dishes, a traditional dish with tender shank of lamb buries under a mountain of seasoned basmati rice with raisins and carrots. This dish lacks some deep flavors, but the lamb shank was very tender, and there was a little bone marrow in the bone. Yum!
