Faizan Ahmad

Went with friends for a nice lunch. Started it off with Rasam and we followed it up with Mysore Dosa, Ghee Dosa, Onion Rava Dosa and Spicy Masala Uthapam amongst ourselves. The dishes were well prepped and we felt the chutneys were good enough. The service was prompt. Overall a nice visit!

For starters we had the Arayes, a pita bread stuffed with minced meat, along with the Maustkhiar, a yogurt cucumber dip. For the main meal we had the Koobideh Kebab as well as the Chicken Kebab. The rice portions with both of them are huge, so my advice would be to get half rice and half salad, and their Fatoush Salad is good. The Koobideh is a nice skewer of minced beef with a hint of herbs. The service is good and you get the feel of a nice little place in an alley in Tehran. As everyone knows I relish desserts, and the walnut baklava over here is a nice option to culminate a nice evening out.

A nice reminder of the past this city has seen. What is surprising is that it is in the middle of new high rise developments and came as a surprise to me when I was wandering home.
