Afghan Restaurant

Head down Spring Bank towards the university and you'll find yourself in one of Hull's most underrated food corridors. Afghan Restaurant sits here doing the business with dishes that taste like they've been cooked with actual care rather than corner-cutting. You're looking at the sort of place where families come for Friday night celebrations and mates gather for lazy lunches, all equally welcome. The kitchen knows what it's doing with spices—nothing's muted or dumbed down for British palates, but it's never unnecessarily harsh either.
