Al Nakhal - Allure Your Taste Buds With Arabic Cuisine

Whenever we talk about eatery options in Lahore, mostly you will not find Al-Nahal in the list or you can say most discussed list. Mostly due to miss conception of its rate probably. But after couple of visits first with my family and now with my friends ,I believe this is the best indoor cabin environment with nitty curtains, Arabic food restaurant which serves best for your money.
We ,G7’s, after less discussion that is not tradition of our group decided to go for Al-Nakhal to celebrate the “Hushee” of our friend ,ZJ the man who initiated this blog. We reached there around 9pm. My friends were already occupied a cabin that was right in front of the main entrance of Al-Nakhal. This gave good idea of customers of eatery later on J.Our host gave order as he was honorable host for this beautiful night. He ordered following items.

1.       Al Nakhal special soup..it was 93-b soup mostly present in menus @ 430
2.       Grilled Lamb Legg (Served with rice)….it was good for two persons @ 1495Rs
3.       Mutton Kabhul Handi (Served with white sauce)@ 570
4.       Lebanese Tikka @ 495
5.       White wine (Pine Apple with white grapes) @ 170
6.       Blue Logon (Blue berries with Pine Apple) @ 170

Order was served in good spirit and we were impressed with the service. Soup was fantastic. At first look I was on doubt about the quality but it was great .I can’t write a lot about the quality and taste about roasted Lamb Legg. Simply outstanding. Taste of Handi’s were great too. Lubnani Tikka’s, ZJ liked that very much but others including me were looking merely satisfied with them. May be we were new to this Arabic taste. The way everyone got share of lamb Legg reminded me the marriages in my village. It forced to order once more J.
In last I can’t forget to mention the great taste of drinks. White wine and Blue Logon were awesome Especially blue Logon.

Problems / Issue
One thing that I can mention in first try the video display of nice Arabic songs was missing. May it is not worth to mention but one of our friend was crying for video of “Belly Dance” J
It is little congested, I mean I am not very fond of  small cabin sitting especially with my friends. We were laughing and chatting. People in other cabin may feel uncomfortable.

In short it is good option especially if you are looking for change. Prices are not on very high side especially if we talk other than roasted Legg.
