Restaurant Tehran confidently describes itself as “the best Persian in town“ and seems to be right. The Persian dishes offered here are a real treat and a welcoming change from the Mediterranean and Central European cuisine that is often found in this country. The menu consists mainly of meat dishes such as “Khoresch Fessendjan” – chicken in a pomegranate sauce with roasted walnuts and basmati rice. The use of fine spices gives this dish a very special characteristic. It is not without reason that Iran is known as the land of saffron.
