Afghan Aanex in Evanston
I went there for lunch based on this posting. It was very good and quite cheap. I had a really excellent lamb kebab with basmati rice. It came with a strange but good soup made with lemo, spinach, cardamom and I don't know what else. It also came with a salad that was admittedly seriously lame. I ate with a friend whose main course I didn't try. We shared two appetizers -- some kind of eggplant spread thing that was pretty good and "Aushak" which are scallion dumplings. The dumplings were really tasty. So, I'd give this place a definite thumbs-up. I will definitely go back and I'll definitely tell friends about it. > > The new owners of pizza delivery and carry out on Main (east of Chicago) = > bought the adjoining storefront and serve Afghan food.
