Kubaba
16 people recommend, 1 warns against itvia r/kozhikode·18 comments quoted below
What people say, in short
Kubaba draws recommendations for its flavoured rice and al fazlouf, dynamite and beef rib mandi. One diner describes the dynamite mandi as among the better versions they have tried, with balanced rice and tender meat, but reports a long wait. Another tried al fazlouf after asking for suggestions and liked it very much. There is pushback too: one commenter warns against the hype, while another found the beef brisket overwhelmingly smoky rather than enjoyable.
