Tandir Express - Brooklyn

The most delicious halal food I’ve ever tasted in New York

Really really good authentic plov, the samsa was also really crispy and hearty

Excellent food. Menu is extensive and seasonal to a particularly high standard. Highly recommend!

I can't stop thinking about the meal I had earlier today. I have to review it. It was mind-bendingly good.I hate to be one of -those- guys, but, I've been to Uzbekistan, mainly to hunt down one of my favorite cuisines. This meal differentiated itself from other authentic food experiences in big diverse cities in that the main dish I ordered, the plov, was at least as good, if not possibly even better than that which I had in Samarkand. It was so balanced, sweet carrots tender meat perfectly toothsome chickpeas and meat grease-soaked grains of delicious rice cooked to the right amount of doneness. There was even a nice whole chile in there for optional spice if you squeeze it with a spoon. So fun.The samsas were crisp and juicy and burning hot, just like the ones I had overseas. Those however had a slight edge over the ones I ate here because they were cooked outside over a fire in an old tandoor. But unlike other samsas I've had in Brooklyn and Queens, these were quite evocative of the real thing. Yum.

Much thanks to you for the yummy and flavorful food sources.
