"Afghan food is nearly impossible to find on the Eastside outside of home kitchens, but thankfully Afghan Cuisine is here to fill that void. The concise menu is a collection of greatest hits: start with an order of the tender mantoo (Afghan dumplings), add one or two stewy vegetable dishes (the borani bademjan is eggplant slowly cooked to a sultry, almost dip-like tenderness), and round out the meal with a subtly brined and gently cooked lamb shank on top of long-grain rice with raisin and carrots in the qabili pallow (a famed Afghan rice and meat dish)." - Brett Bankson
