"Owned by Hamid Kharzai's brother, Qayum Karzai, Helmand serves outstanding Afghan fare in a casual yet elegant space. For starters, kaddo borwani, a sweet-and-pungent pumpkin dish, is unforgettable."
"The Helmand is a longtime favorite for its kaddo borawni (pumpkin in yogurt-garlic sauce). If you've never tried Afghan cuisine, this is a great place to do so."
