Lal Qila, Carrolton, TX

We went here searching for pakistani food. I liked the mango lassi although it reminded me of the mango milk shakes/smoothies i used to make. The chicken kadhai and rumali roti was really good. The chicken biryani was mediocre, mild and oily.

The falooda was quite nice although different from what we get in India.

The video here shows you how to make falooda similar to what we had:

The samosas here tasted stale whereas the lal aloo and mixed chaat was good. Definitely worth visiting.

Type : I wasn't going for Neapolitan-style, very high-heat Pizza. The t...
