HISTORY

Café Aylanto began as an upscale deli serving gourmet sandwiches and delicacies using ingredients previously not offered in Pakistan, such as oysters, Italian gelato and authentic Italian coffees. The loyal clientele began to express a desire for more traditional Mediterranean dishes in addition to the current menu, and therefore pastas, steaks and various other entrées were introduced. Regular guests know their favorites and often request items from the original menu, such as the all-time favorite Chicken Avocado Sandwich and the Aylanto Grilled Burger. The kitchen staff is always honored to fulfill these requests and even whip up something special upon request. 

CUISINE

The Pan Seared Norwegian Pink Salmon; olive and garlic crusted and served with cauliflower mousse and asparagus, pomelo vinegar and ginger kabayaki sauce.
