Superb afghan food!
For anybody who hasnt tried afghani food, Samarkhand is a must.
The restaurant is located on Infantry Road, and to reach. As such its a popular eatry, and hence reservatoin is a must. The decor is very nice, but appears a bit crowded. samarkhand sports an open kitchen, ie. its walls are glass and provides one with a clear view of eveything that goes on in there...
Coming to the food and the service. the service is very good, and the waiters are dressed in the traditional garb, and very attentive to your needs.
The unique menu card, is in the form of a local newspaper. One can read snippets of afghani lifestyle, their beliefs, traditions etc, interspaces with the menu. Makes for pleasant reading. The food is really devine. being a vegetarian, i will vouch for a really delicious and scumptous meal there. I ve heard from fellow diners that the non-veg is uncomparable!
The wallet factor: its a little heavy on the the purse, a meal for 4 will be around 2000/- ( including drinks)
