Dessert at the old Khyber Pass in Oakland - available now where?

The (came with the dinner) pudding served at the end of the meal

    Oh, in an odd coincidence I was just recommending a place to get good firni to David Farris earlier today ... however that is in South Kolkata. There is often/occasionally [?] a kheer or rice pudding type item avail at OASIS MARKET which isnt called firni, but I'd suspect you'ld like it ...

    They seem to charge me random prices for things at OASIS, I but dont image its more than $3.50 ... so if you are located in Oakland, it is an cheap and easy option. Unless you are looking for a real resto version.

    Firni in my experience can cover a lot of ground.

      Helmand Palace does great versions of feereny, a pudding served with fruit, and sheerberaing, Afghan-style rice pudding.

        Thank you. This is what has been haunting me

        Perhaps a bit more detailed description might help? Offhand, you might want to try one of the Afghan restaurants in Fremont.
