A select listing of directions to Kabul resturants.
If they ever repaint the guard houses or more the cement barriers the resturants will go bust.

RED HOT & SIZZLIN’
Location: Microyan; Best bet the first time is to go with someone who’s been there. But if you must, come from Wazir on the main road through Massoud circle, straight through the Jalalabad road circle and come across the river. Take the first right and go down until the end of the Russian apartment buildings on your left. Make a left at the new shopping center with the pizza place on the corner. Make a left at the next traffic circle. Slow down. The first gate on the right will have a red chili pepper hanging up on a pole. That’s it. Good luck.


SHANDIZ
Location: Wazir Akbar Khan; Pakistan Embassy Street, down before the barricades on the left

SAMARQAND
Location: Qala Musa; Turn right at Charyi Haji Yakub, go down the street past the birdcage then make the first left. Make the first right and it’s down a block on the right. Big grey gate.


CORNER PIZZERIA
Location: Wazir Akbar Khan; Swing around main circle and put The Grill on your right, head down the barricaded street to almost the end. You’ll see big misspelled banners showing you the way.

GANDAMACK
Location: Shar-e Now; Between DHL and the Mustafa across the street from the secret police office.


POPOLANO
Location: Shar-e Now; Toilet Street between Charyi Ansari and Ministry of Interior Street

LE BISTRO
Location: Shar-e Now. Behind Ministry of Interior, on the street parallel to Chicken Street. Coming down from the Kabul City Center with the Park on your left, make a right on the street at the end of the park, across from the gas station, then make the next left. If you survive the ride down this street for a long block you’ll see the sign for Le Bistro hanging at the corner where you’ll make the right turn, then the restaurant is on your right.


No building or house numbers. No post office service either.
