For the mildly adventurous. Non-zero chance of the 💩s.
Great food, but the kitchen's had some "notes" from the inspector. Worth it? Probably. Pack Imodium just in case.
So, the Original Khyber is basically a food marathon. You’ll be queuing with families, but don't sweat it; the staff are champs at seating you. The Peshwari Chapli Kebab? An absolute joy. It’s like a flavor explosion on your plate, especially when paired with their gigantic roti. If you’re into the authentic vibes, the Charsi Lamb Karahi is another standout that had my taste buds doing the cha-cha. Just remember, don’t expect a Michelin-starred experience; this place is all about the food hustle.
The toilets? A bit of a war zone, and if you don’t mind sticky floors, you’re golden. It’s a bit chaotic, but hey, if everyone’s there, the food’s gotta be fresh, right? Just know you might leave smelling like a tandoor, but it’ll be worth it for that Chapli Kebab. Just don’t wear your best clothes. Trust me on that one.
