#Aria kabab windows

Have you had food that was so good but the pictures look so bad? Here is an example. I was such a fine lady eating meat using my fingers and wearing my pretty short skirt in a moving vehicle! Here comes my very best eating, with fingers. I dug in immediately without any utensils.

He went to the kitchen and started yelling something in a language I could not make out.įinally! I could not wait to take my food and get out of there. I waited over 30 mins for the two dishes of takeout food! They are kababs: grilled meat, with rice, salad and a piece of bread! Did they have to butcher the cow in the back and wash every leaf of the lettuce? I started sighing right in front of the guy. Would definitely try different flavors next time. It’s not sweet and it is very heavy in milk. Does not taste like the ice cream that we know. While waiting, we tried this Shahi Kulfi “ice cream.” It’s pretty unique. Proceeded onto ordering the Beef Tikka and Kabab. It really defeated the purpose of being there.

Regardless, I went up and tried to order Lamb Tikka and Kabab and was told that the lamb would not be ready until tomorrow. Not necessarily crazy about the eyes that were on my bare skin. As I walked in in a black A-lined short skirt, a black tank top and my three-inch heels, I was suddenly very self-conscious and stuck out like a sore thumb. It was not that bad but the place was filled with only men, some dressed in the traditional thobe.

Walking in this place, it reminded me the Chinese takeout place in dicey neighborhoods where there are bullet proof windows in front of the counter. Yes, I was in the mood for kabab and lamb. So a search on Google Map took me to a random Afghan place called Aria Kabab. Just finished a hospital visit and did not have time to research for a good restaurant nearby. It was 7:30pm on Saturday night and I was incredibly hungry in Jamaica NY. Wait! This story has a wonderful ending if you stick with me.

Have you ever been to a restaurant or a place and instantly felt that you made a mistake in going? But it was too late to back out and you are stuck there, waiting for the experience to end? That was my experience on Saturday night at the Aria Kabab restaurant/takeout hole in the wall in Flushing NY.
