I've been going here for lunch since around 1991. Through the years my ordering habits have changed a bit. I used to order the spinach a lot and the dal (orange lentils). These days I pretty much stick to aubergine all the time. Those are just the toppings, though. For the longest time I would always just have the toppings on rice. The last years I have become partial to pakaura in addition to the rice. Every once in a while I get the bolani, a thick pancake like dish filled with either potatoes or leeks. Every once in a while I get the khanom (I think that's what it's called).The food is cooked fresh every morning. They scoop out the sauces and the rice from large pots. Your order is warmed up in the microwave and then you are asked what you want with it: peppermint (yes!), yoghurt with or without garlic (with!!!), "surprise" (a freshly made chutney, mmmmm), spicey (just a little bit, thank you). They are very careful to find out just how spicey you like and the cater to all levels, ranging from nothing at all to mild to "summer chili" and finally "winter chili".You are served free tea, but I also recommend ordering the mango lassi. The cuisine is reminiscent of Indian and some of the words are the same or related, but there's a definite difference. If you like Indian food, though, I think there's a very good chance you'll like this.You'd think I'd get tired of the food after all these years, but I just don't. It's good, down-home, home-made food. The owners are friendly and remember your preferences. Through the years I've watched some of the children grow up.

Sadly I wasn't able to eat here but this is a friendly, authentic gastaette a couple of miles off the tourist track. Definitely a neighborhood place - no English menus or anything like that here, but a good example of a neighborhood bar and restaurant that the locals clearly enjoy. I will definitely come back here for food sometime: as well as all the usual German fare there are Afghan dishes (I think the chef is from Afghanistan.) The blackboard advertised cheap weekday lunches but on this weekend afternoon drinks outside were enough for me. Staff don't speak English but a few words of German and a lot of pointing go a long way. Definitely recommended after a walk in the hills above Freiburg!

Called in at lunchtime as part of a group of five people, as it was lunchtime on a Wednesday we were able to secure an outside table without a reservation. Restaurant appeared well decorated and was clean.Enjoyed very tasty dish of lamb with spinach and lentils, menu was not as varied as I thought it might be and a number of standard traditional German dishes were filling up the card.Service was courteous and food served promptly, albeit warm rather than hot. Can't quite put my finger on what was missing, has plenty potential to build on atmosphere, and to be bold with its menu. Afghan restaurants are not that common, has an opportunity to make a mark and set a new standard for others to attain.
