After trying out a bunch of new restaurants downtown through
Summerlicious 2013, it’s time to go back to finding hidden gems in Mississauga.
Much easier of a commute to eat, that’s for sure.
I’m pretty certain I can count the number of times I’ve
tried Afghan food on one hand. I definitely enjoy it but it isn’t usually the
first type of cuisine I think of when I want to go out for dinner. My friend
suggested Bamiyan Kabob near Dixie and Eglinton.
Unless you know exactly where to go, you’ll probably mix this
restaurant because it’s inside of a plaza that has a lot of other shops.
It’s a self- serve restaurant so you go up to order your
food, sit down and when they call your order number you can go and pick it up
from the counter. If you’re in a rush, I
would definitely prefer eating this way than waiting for a server!
We ordered the Tandoori Kabob dinner which comes with rice,
salad and naan and one skewer of the tandoori chicken. The chicken was very flavourful but the
chicken wasn’t as soft and juicy as I would have liked. It was a good pairing
with the naan. The texture of Afghan naan is much thicker than the usual naan
that I’m accustomed to. It was warm and tasted very fresh.
The green salad was okay, nothing particularly outstanding
about it but it’s a good side to have if you find the meat too spicy. The rice
was well seasoned as well and cooked to a perfect texture.
We also got Sultan Kabob on the side which includes 1 skewer
of Barg Kabob and 1 skewer of Kofta Kabob. This was probably my favourite part
of the meal. The meal was so soft and it tasted like steak .I would definitely
recommend the Sultani Kabob dinner or go back for more!
The prices and portions were good, the dinners range from $9 - $13 dollars and the portions are very generous. You will definitely be full if not have leftovers to take home!

If you’re looking to eat other than the usual Jack Astors or
Milestones in Missisauga, definitely give Bamiyan Kabob a try!
