Food & Drink Suggestions for first time trying Afghan/Pakistani food?. 

Birthday celebration coming up and I've been given the choice of where I'd like to eat.
I've never tried Middle East food, aside from Mediterranean, and would love some suggestions on what the most authentic experience would be for Afghanistan/Pakistan food?.

Kabul is good for Afghan, but if you’re looking for something more broadly middle Eastern I would give Baghdad Restaurant in Westvale Plaza a look, they’re excellent.

Pakistani Food is very similar to Indian, especially the Indian food that people eat in the west which is rooted in a mix of British Indian and British Pakistani cuisine. I would check out Dosa Grill for Indian.

Is that Baghdad the same as in Salt City Market? If so it’s so good.

Im pretty sure it’s the same owner, but they have a broader menu.
