Gosht or ghosht refers to tender meat, cooked for a long time, and used as an ingredient in a number of Middle Eastern cuisine, Central Asian cuisine and cuisine of the Indian subcontinent.

We ordered lamb chops. They were big and looked nice, but the smell was very strong and not pleasant at all. It made it hard to eat them. I think the meat wasn’t cleaned or cooked properly.
Then we tried the chicken karahi. I was hoping it would taste better, but it had a weird flavor too. It seemed like they used lamb fat or oil to cook it, which made it taste strange and heavy.
Even the cold drink was expensive—it cost Rs. 300 for just one bottle!
The only thing I liked was their "Mohabbat ki Chae" which is sweet milk tea. It was warm, sweet, and very comforting. That was the only good part of the meal for me.
We were sitting in AC area (room) where the washroom was attached and I swear it smelled so so bad, and the face that every man on this restaurant crossed through this place to use washroom making it worse. Until the last minute a waiter used air freshener and made it little better.
So, overall, it wasn’t a great experience, and I probably...
