A taste of the delicious east

              Kajjal 

             Eastern dining in Malahide

 Kajjal is a Pakistani and Eastern cuisine Restaurant, it is located on the Green in the seaside village of Malahide. The Restaurant is owned by Sean Collender and Shoaib Yunis, and they deliver an excellent dining experience to their customers. It is a very popular place due to its good food and friendly atmosphere, and is the perfect place for a night out as they offer a varied menu to suit all dietary requirements and all ingredients in their dishes are displayed on the  menu. The restaurant gets customers from all over Dublin due to its excellent reputation of serving high quality food.

The Indian and Pakistani dishes are delicious, and they are a must for anyone who is a lover of spices. There is also an option of mild spices for those who dont like their food with strong spices. The portions are very generous, and you will leave the restaurant being very satisfied, even lovers of eastern food will be surprised by the extent of the dishes on the menu. I would recommend their spice filled potatoes starter called Aloo Tikki, and the marinated monk fish dish called Lasooni Machali. The Restaurant’s  main dishes are delicious but one I would recommend is their Tikka masala chicken which is a barbecued chicken in a creamy nut sauce and their beef korma is also tasty and it contains onions and almonds in a yogurt sauce.

 This Restaurant is very popular with vegetarians as they offer a wide range of vegetarian dishes especially Channa which contains chick peas cooked in masala and garnished with spring onion and coriander. They also have many signature dishes on their menu and one that I would definitely recommend is their spicey beef curry Nehari Gosht. Also the bar has a wide selection of alcohol drinks. If diners are not familiar with the dishes on the menu, they can ask a member of staff for help about the ingredients.

Kajjal Restaurant is definitely one to visit apart from its delicious food, and visiting the restaurant is a must for those who are lover of eastern cuisine. It offers great value to suit all budgets and has remained open during Covid restrictions as it has an outdoor dining area where you can enjoy a meal safely, and peacefully as it is in a quiet location in Malahide. The lockdown will be lifted in December, so remember to book early for a table as the restaurant is expecting to be very busy during the Christmas period.  If you liked this blog post, then click on the link to see our other blog post on Carluccios.
