A no-frills Afghan spot in Concord that punches way above its weight, delivering the kind of layered, aromatic cooking that makes the strip-mall setting feel irrelevant. The crowd is mostly locals who know exactly what they're ordering and don't need a menu. Get the narunj palow, a saffron rice dish built around a lamb shank that practically dissolves, and don't skip the chapli kebabs.
