Pakistani · Cardiff
Portions are the headline here — one visitor got through barely a third of theirs and passed the rest to a friend, which is worth knowing when you're feeding hungry children on a ££ budget. Complimentary papadums with four chutneys land early, a useful stopgap while little ones wait. The grill dishes and naans draw the warmest praise, along with kebab nihari and paaya, though spice levels often arrive milder than asked for, so say if you want heat. There's a kids' menu, high chairs and free parking, which takes the sting out of a Cardiff trip. Two honest snags: service can be slow even on a quiet night, and the music sometimes climbs loud enough to make conversation hard. Worth treating as an unhurried early dinner rather than a squeeze between naps.
A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
