"Trying Ariana for the first time was a revelation: the bowlawni kaddo — fried pastry shells stuffed with pan-fried baby pumpkin, onions, garlic, and seasoned with mint yogurt — was excellent, the mantu (beef dumplings) delivered the expected flavors even if the pyramid shape got a bit flattened in transit, and the surprise hit was the deeply flavorful challow (Afghan rice) that made a terrific next-morning breakfast; I’m excited to explore more Afghan dishes and can’t wait to dine in when possible." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
