Shams — Restaurant in Leipzig

This is a great Afghan restaurant that offers an authentic taste of Afghanistan! As a South Asian, I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to experience genuine flavors. The average cost per person is around €20, depending on the dish you choose. I suggest trying the Kabab Tschopan and Kabuli—both are fantastic!

So in short, overly priced restaurant and very bad service. I won't recommend it to anyone and won't go...

Mango Paneer: Pros: soo rich in taste and portion is good Cons: was bit too heavy

In both dishes there was a small portion of salad which was bit confusing (looked bit old and had no...
