Tehran Restaurants
Where you can have a
chance to have great
meal just by a few dollars? Believe me; you can have a great meal in
After trying
different kinds of meals from at least 20 different countries I think I am
nearly professional to judge about meals and restaurants. I became really sure
in these years that Iranian people have paid lots of attention to their meals
and they have tried their best to have colorful and wonderful meal tables. In
First, restaurants with both foreign
and Persian meals: You can find lots of high
class restaurant in this category that their services are comparable to the
very high class restaurants at
Persian restaurants (Which serve
mainly Iranian meals): Most of these restaurants just serve you with Iranian
meals such as “Kebabs”. Persian restaurants usually have lots of delicious
meals which are unique. If I want to help you to have more overview about what
kinds of meals you can have there, I can categorize Persian meals in two main
categories beside one sub category.
The first main category is about Kebabs which are near Arabic, Turkish and Greek meals but in my opinion they are more delicious and tasteful in Iran. To have more overview about how they look like you can refer to Site1 or Site2 . By referring to the regarding links you can know more about the ingredients and the methods of cooking of this kind of meals. The second main category is stews (Khoroshts), which are like Indian meals but they are not as spicy as Indians’. Beside this Iranian use more meats in their stews. You can refer to the last two links to find more about what they look like or refer to Sofreh Irani to see the photos of some of them. Most of the Persian restaurants are paying more attention to the first category since Iranians typically love to have Kebab and specially “Koobideh” and “Barg” ones at restaurants and have stews at home. The last category is the sub category of “Dizi” and “Ab goosht” which are just served in some special Persian restaurants typically called as “Sofrekhaneh”and I have not seen any similar ones in other nationalities (Maybe Jamaicans have similar meals) and that proves that they are unique. The main ingredient of these meals is Beef. For more information about one of them please refer to Site 3.
If I want to give you some pieces of
advice as well as a few suggestions about the Persian restaurants. First I
should suggest you to Try “Koobideh Kebab” which is specially for
There are lots of restaurants which
just serve sandwiches and Pizzas. I should mention that Pizzas in
In end I would really suggest you to
have different Iranian side meals that they are really great and special too.
