Kirkland's Afghan Restaurant






Our little downtown is very global in its eateries. Recently we tried Ariana, an Afghan restaurant. We had some very interesting and delicious food. 



BOLANEECATCHA-LU, turnover pastry stuffed with mashed potato, onion, and herbs, served with a side of homemade garlic yogurt sauce









QABULI PALAU, seasoned rice with tender chunks of lamb under a heaping sweet carrot strips, raisins, almonds, served with a side of qorma sabzi (spinach stew)


RAS MALAI, delicate curd cheese patties served in an almond sweetened milk and cardamom sauce


This building used to be occupied by a high end steak house. Each of the booths had a brass plaque naming a major city. Our booth said - "London!"
We shared a mango lassi in memory of Michael Todd. 
This was one of his favorite drinks.
