I ordered the pakora, which was ok (on the heavy side) and the chicken biryani. The heat level was perfect. However the rice seemed overcooked (perhaps reheated), the chicken was tender and tasty. Unfortunately, seems there might have been an issue with the rice because I've been a frequent visitor to the bathroom since this meal, and it's now been 24 hours. My meal prior to the restaurant was 9 hours before at home (oats and milk). I should have known better than order the biryani, because it does take time to cook and there was a likelihood it had been cooked well in advance. Sigh.

Once seated we were provided with the drinks menu and appetizers. Decided to splurge and get a sampler of the grilled meats. Oh my god so delicious! The naans are heavenly and the service is extraordinary. Slightly on the pricier side but hey you are eating Pakistani food in Oslo!
