Watch our bakers hand-stretch and bake fresh naan to order in a traditional clay tandoor at Afghan Chatkhara Restaurant. Soft in the centre, smoky and blistered at the edges — it's the bread our Castleridge neighbours in northeast Calgary come back for, made in front of you every single time.
Naan is the heartbeat of any Afghan or Pakistani table, and at Afghan Chatkhara Restaurant we treat it that way. Our dough is prepared fresh daily and slapped by hand onto the searing clay walls of our tandoor oven, where it puffs, chars lightly and bakes in a matter of minutes. The result is a bread that's soft and pillowy in the middle with a smoky, slightly crisp edge — nothing like pre-baked, reheated naan.
Naan is the perfect companion to our tandoori chicken and Lahori chargha, chapli kabab, chicken and mutton karahi, and daal — a true taste of Afghan, Pakistani and Indian halal cooking. Whether you're picking up dinner in Castleridge or ordering delivery to Falconridge and Martindale, our tandoor naan always arrives fresh and fragrant.
Yes. Our naan dough is hand-stretched and baked to order in a traditional clay tandoor right at the restaurant, so every order arrives hot and fresh from the oven.

"Watching them bake the naan fresh while you wait is half the fun. It's soft, warm and so much better than anywhere else nearby."
Falconridge Regular
"I always order extra naan with my karahi — it's that good. Fresh, smoky and perfect for scooping up the gravy."
Martindale Family
"My kids ask for the naan by name now. It's a simple thing done really well, and the halal kitchen gives us peace of mind."
