When it comes to Persian food, the heart of residential Kennington probably isn’t the first area you think of. If it is, then it’s likely because you know about its well kept secret; a little intimate restaurant called Doost.Set in the most unassuming of locations, it quietly goes about serving up mammoth plates of delicious Middle Eastern delights which will set the tastebuds alight and the stomach satisfied. Having never had Persian food before, I’m embarrassed to admit I played it safe with the order, leaving myself at the mercy of the kitchen with a starter platter for 2 and another platter for mains. In hindsight, my concern was misplaced as what was served was top notch. The starter platter for 2 was a formidable feast including herb frittata, grilled King prawn, calamari and Turkish flat bread with taftoon. Generous is the best way to describe it followed by very good. But this just proved to be a tease for the main event; the meat platter for 2. Now it says 2 but, like with the starter, it could’ve easily fed 3 such was its generosity. With a platter including lamb fillets, lamb koftas and chicken shish kebabs it is very much a carnivores dream and a true hunger buster. I consider myself to have quite the appetite but even I succumbed to the doggy bag request. But more importantly, meat was as good as it was generous with succulent cuts being cooked with a lot of skill. If you’re looking for a Persian experience, I would recommend a visit to Doost. Come hungry!Also follow me on Twitter @annixontong and @wetrykai and on Instagram @annixontong. wetrykai.wordpress.com
CI5. Ok I have been searching for a great persian restaurant for the longest time and this is finally IT!! The food is out of this world, since i ve discovered this place I can’t go to any other persian restaurant! The ambiance is also very nice, cosy and chic at the same time, lovely staff, also has a Vodka bar with all kinds of shots… if the owner is there at the same time as you… your in trouble! :D. You have never had good persian food until you have been to Doost!
