Located in downtown Skokie, this Afghan cuisine restaurant is sure to be a hit.
recently reopened in downtown Skokie after being off the scene for almost two and a half years. A 'Check Please' alum, regional foodies were well aware of its absence. The restaurant was missed: this thread at the LTHForum tracked the restaurant when it was open, then about to reopen in another location, even reporting to one another on the state of construction.
Now in its new home at 4949 Oakton St., the bright and attractive modern space adds another light to Skokie's ever brighter assortment of downtown.
If you decided to check this place out, make sure to try the Mantoo ($6). It features steamed dumplings with ground beef, peas under a tomato meat sauce with a creamy, fresh yogurt finish. And if you're looking for appetizers, then you may want to try the Kadu ($6). This dish features sweet baby pumpkin cooked in light honey and onions.
