A very comfortable and cosy restaurant that seats 50 diners. Lovely stylish, traditionally hand-made embroidered wall-coverings hang all around the room, depicting scenes from Lahore. Tabaq’s special menu includes their famous, whole, marinated and stuffed baby lamb, apparently enough to feed fourteen people! Tabaq is owned by the brothers Ahmed. Mushtaq runs front-of-house. Manoor is head chef, and culinary magic emanates from him and his brigade. All food is cooked fresh so be prepared for a bit of a wait. The menu is pure Lahori cuisine.
