The flavor I can only describe as musky, unusual and almost unpleasant. It's not to my taste, but if the Afghans like it, good for them. The restaurant also has a list of lunch specials. Desserts and beverages complement the menu. Coconut cake is a dense, moist cake, rather bland but appropriate if you've had one of the spicier entrees.
Beverages are as interesting as the entrees.
If you want something cold, the Himalayan spiced tea with cream is worth a try. At lunch, when even H.H. doesn't drink wine, he had a spicy Jamaican ginger beer and liked it. For dinner, it's BYOB, and of course we did. H.H. brought a bottle of Alsatian gew rztraminer from his stash at home and it stood up well to Road to Karakash foods. Never mind that old wine lover's rule that the wine should never cost more than the food.
