Bahar Renovating to Become Halal Chinese/Afghani
The awesome Afghani restaurant Bahar, located on Coney Island Ave near Newkirk, is closed while they change things up. The awning has come down and there’s a sign announcing the new Bahar Masala, serving “halal Chinese and Afghani cuisine.”
It’s a shame they couldn’t make it work as it was–it was always pretty empty in there, even though the food was really good. As long as they keep those pumpkin fritters known as bolani kadu on the menu, the change could be okay (or am I just being overly hopeful?). We’ll check in when it reopens and let you know.
