Lahore Kebab House
For authentic, vivid flavors in a no-nonsense setting, curry lovers head to Old Lahore Kebab House. Famous for its Pakistani cuisine, queues are out the door on weekends for a taste of their rich, powerfully spiced dals and meat curries, piles of sweet onion bhajis, fiery grilled tandoori lamb chops and seekh kebabs, and fresh breads dripping with ghee. A peek in the open kitchen shows an army of cooks kneading dough for the tandoor and flipping meats on the grill. The grilled lamb chops are of the highest quality meat. One bite into the hefty chop reveals a proper dark crust, liberal spice rub and fiery flavors, with a citrus burst at the end. The chops are a marriage of flavor and protein made in culinary heaven. Bonus points for Lahore’s BYOB policy. They’ll even lend you a bottle opener or corkscrew.
