THE PERSIAN ROOM, PYRMONT
Bringing the fine taste of Persia to Sydney, this restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It captures the ancient Iranian food traditions through their wide selection of kebabs, soups and slow cooked meat dishes. Try the Fesenjun – chicken slow cooked in pomegranate and walnut for an infusing eight hours – or the lamb shank, cooked in aromatic Persian spices. After your mains, your stomach might be bulging but to miss the delicious selection of desserts would be a mistake. The Persian Room will become your new favourite Arabian escape. (Nicole Stinson)
