Our Cambridge Menu — Halal Pakistani, Indian & Hakka

Every dish at Zauq Cambridge is made fresh from our Hespeler Rd kitchen — the same recipes, the same standards, and the same halal-certified ingredients as all our Ontario locations.


Pakistani Cuisine

  • Chicken Karahi — the dish Cambridge comes back for. Bone-in chicken in a slow-reduced tomato and ginger gravy. Rich, bold, unmistakably Zauq.
  • Bihari Kabab — slow-marinated beef kabab, a community favourite and one of the top catering orders from our Cambridge kitchen
  • Beef Karahi — whole spices, slow heat, the real thing
  • Nihari — braised beef shank in a deeply aromatic overnight gravy. The king of the dawat table.
  • Haleem — slow-simmered lentil and meat stew, especially popular with Waterloo Region's student community
  • Halal Biryani — chicken or beef, fragrant long-grain basmati, cooked in layers the traditional way
  • Daal Makhni, Saag Gosht, Aloo Keema, and the full Pakistani menu


Indian Cuisine

  • Butter Chicken — creamy, gently spiced, universally loved in Cambridge and Kitchener
  • Lamb Korma — mild and aromatic, perfect for families and mixed groups
  • Palak Paneer — vegetarian-friendly, consistently popular with the university crowd
  • Seasonal Indian specials based on what's fresh

Hakka Indo-Chinese Cuisine

Hakka food is a huge part of what makes Zauq unique — and Cambridge's student community has made it one of our most popular menu sections. No other halal restaurant in Waterloo Region serves authentic Indo-Chinese Hakka food.

  • Hakka Noodles — stir-fried beef or chicken, crisp vegetables, bold Hakka sauce
  • Manchurian Chicken — a crispy, tangy crowd-pleaser that disappears fast at events
  • Chilli Beef — bold and punchy, a Waterloo Region student favourite
  • Chicken Fried Rice — lighter, filling, great for large group catering
