It's such a great restaurant. I need to kidnap their chef and transport her/him over to the UK. My in-laws are coming for a visit next month - I wonder if I could talk them into taking care of things at the American end...?!!!

You should definitely try the potatoes recipe on the website, or find another. We have an Afghani restaurant here that shows up at the outdoor fairs and their potatoes are absolutely delicious!!
