Sufi Makhan Restaurant
Sufi Makhan
An Arabic-flavoured restaurant open until midnight. Mandi rice, grilled chicken and Leghorn chicken biryani are popular with young locals for late-night meals.
Malabar has close trade ties with the Gulf region, so Arabic food is very popular in Kannur. This restaurant, around Padanapalam on Araat Road, is one of the city's most-reviewed examples. The menu centres on mandi rice, shawarma and charcoal-grilled chicken (alfaham), and also includes Leghorn chicken biryani, beef roast and Kerala parotta. There is indoor and outdoor seating. It opens from noon until midnight and suits dinner and late-night meals. About 200-400 rupees per person; cards and delivery are accepted. Some reviews mention a limited menu and slow service at busy times.
