Our Story

A Taste of
Afghanistan

What began as a family dream in Kabul's bustling markets now thrives on the streets of Austin. Our recipes carry the soul of Afghanistan — fragrant basmati rice, slow-braised lamb, hand-ground spices, and bread baked fresh every morning.

Every dish we serve tells a story. From our signature Kabuli Pulao to our saffron-infused teas, we bring you the warmth of Afghan hospitality — generous, unpretentious, and unforgettable.

"The Kabuli Pulao is hands down the best dish I've had in Austin. The lamb melts in your mouth and the rice is perfectly spiced. This truck is a hidden gem on Red River."

"I stumbled upon this truck during SXSW and I've been coming back every week since. The mantu dumplings and sheer chai are my go-to. Incredible hospitality too."

"As someone who grew up eating Afghan food, this truck is the real deal. The chapli kebab tastes exactly like my grandmother's recipe. Feels like home every time."
