Hankering for curry and kebabs? Overlook the ho-hum decor (white plastic tables, wooden chairs) and piped pop music, and focus on aromatic Iranian food with an Indian tilt, served with a smile. Try moist, charry, marinated whole chook from the tandoor, fall-apart beef masala with raisins and cashews in dark gravy, tender mixed kebabs, hot naan, (wholemeal, garlic and cheese varieties) and zereshk polow - fluffy saffron rice bejewelled with dried pomegranate seeds and slivers of fried Spanish onion. Round out the meal with a mango yoghurt drink or saffron, honey and rosewater ice-cream with pistachio crumbs.
