The Afghan Horsemen Restaurant

While transporting Edwina's bike to her new place, I ran into Critical Mass well underway. Luckily I was on a bike which made crossing this rally easier. They all thought I was a blocker. LOL! As RT joked, the planets finally aligned and we were all able to go to the Afghan Horsemen for dinner! We had the room where you sit on your bum. Michael looking through the menu... Our server, Afsoun helping him out... These were awesome! They're called Pakawra (Batter Fried Potatoes with Chaka Dip). I want some more just looking at it. The 3 Dip Combo... I ordered their Beef Shish Kebab. Mike had the Aushak (Afghan Ravioli). For dessert, I had the Milk Pudding. The others had Baghlava and Ice Cream with Pistachios. In that small cup was Mike's Turkish Coffee. Man, that's a hairy arm! For our entertainment, we had a belly dancer come into our room! And she brought a sword! I helped her stand on her drum. She got some of the dudes to dance with her. And taught them a few steps... It was my turn, so I gave Mike my camera to take photos. She tried to get my belly to move too. She's awesome! I made sure to tip her. Her name is Shivaun. What a smackeroo! I love this place! They're located at 202-1833 Anderson Street (2nd Floor), Vancouver, BC. They're by the entrance of Granville Island. I'm serious! The food was delicious and I definitely enjoyed the entertainment. I want to go back now!!! On the way back to the car, Michael got his feet wet or should I say, dirty. At the Skytrain station, I bumped into this Staffordshire Terrier! This cute puppy's name is Olie.
