hareem, that was awesome mate , proper awesome, mashallah … I totally loved the theme .. and the selection of your menu was fabulous .. goes really well with the theme …
yaar I think Mughals never ate anything before the main course so i made it up, i didn’t give much thought that it is very heavy on stomach:D, btw we mostly order seekh kebabs or shami kebabs before the main course when eating in a Pakistani place.
Monk are you going to kick the mehmaan … mehmaan who are Allah mian ki rehmat? …
Now stop all this mar kutayi and become hospitable and think of something more appetizing to go with the sandwich
