A review of Khan's from a local paper:

A video snipet from a local public television show called Check Please, where average Joe review restaurants, enjoy the food shots, please don't listen to the whitebreads talk about it. http://checkplease.wttw.com/restaurants/khan-bbq

Sorry cannot make it. Time problems....plus veg. menu is very limited.
That naan in the video is not authentic !

I do hope one of these das you will set up at Cuisine of India on Oakton in Mt Prospect. Very good dinner buffet for $ 12.00 .

Sorry, Willie; I can't make it. Too little work done yesterday, too much to do today. Hope you all have fun!

Add me to the list of the fallen - unfortunately, I'm not going to make it after all.

I'm ~75% likely to attend...I'll be there as long as nothing pops up at work this afternoon. I'll be driving from Oak Brook; so, I may be there before 7pm or I may be late (depending on traffic).

If it is raining, I may have to be in River North ~9:30pm to pick-up Mrs. FindAWay; so, assuming I make it tonight, I may be able to offer you a ride back to the Drake.

What! Already I'm on the Red line and only now I come to find it's not kosher. Oy!

I thought kosher and halal are accepted as sorta similar? I wouldn't know as I don't practice either.

Interestingly enough, both practices seem to be concerned with meat. Whenever we go with Jewish or Muslim friends who may have such concerns, I counsel them to order vegetarian and their faith shall be protected!

Enjoy!

Great and well priced food with new friends and old, and picked up a few cool FT tricks.

Thanks Willie for being Den Mother, and FindAWay for the ride back to my hotel.

While y'all are back to work this week I'm off to camp at Lark Forest: it's grim, but somebody has to do it, J.

glad so many folks were able to come out on a cold rainy night.

Food & FTers were terrific, we all shared family style, 9 different dishes + a variety of naan, cost $20 per person & that included tip.^
