Kebab Indian Cuisine

Kebab Indian Cuisine, (978) 454-7777
1270 Westford St. (Drum Hill RD.), Lowell MA 01851

Nice place, new. Daily buffet, including weekends. Buffet generally has 4 non veg entrees and a similar veg variety. Nice dessert (kheer or gulab jamun).

Update Sep 2008
Goat curry - 7/10. Tasty, with rich gravy. However, the pieces were a bit dry, and the aroma of "goat" :) was missing from the overall entree.

Update 3/26/08
Butter chicken - 6/10
Chicken Aachari - 6/10
Chicken curry - 5.5/10
Chicken seekh kabab - 6.5/10

They also had a nice 'vaghare baigan' (eggplant in rich curry sauce). They seem to be always out of lamb seekh kabab, so call ahead.

3/2/08
Buffet - 6.5/10

Tandoori combo platter was some nice and some average. It has
Tandoori chicken - 6/10
chicken tikka - 6/10
boti kebab - 5/10

They also had a shoe-lace-fluorescent-green dry paneer dish - I forget the name - Paneer hariyali/kofta (paneer with spinach covering) maybe - which was useless and tasteless (despite asking for spicy) - 4/10.

Shalimar Restaurant, San Francisco, CA
532 Jones St, San Francisco, CA
(415) 928-0333

I had heard about this restaurant being good. I asked the chef for his recommendations (below):
Murgh Boti Tandoori - 5/10. Nothing great. The chicken was not well marinated and suffered from the same 1/2 mm of flavor problem (the surface has some marinate, but inside is unmarinated "white" meat). This dish is marinated chicken cubes "kabob", not minced.

Seekh Kabab Mughlai (beef) - 6/10.

Bhuna Gosht (lamb pieces) - 6/10. This was nice, but just about that.

Below is what I should have had according to some local sources:
Chicken Kofta
Chicken Leg
Aloo Parantha
