Ended up here one night after work before heading out for some drinks. Lovely establishment which really does serve authentic Persian food. Their grill selection is nice and the decor is fab too! Would recommend.
A perfect Sunday for me starts with a yoga session , (which then has to be rewarded) followed by a mooch round the Golborne road in North West London. Eclectic, rammed full of eateries and stuffed with a bunch of people chewing the fat over a vast array of cuisines. Trouble is, you just have to open your gob and say Portobello road and you know the price will at least double.Armed with that knowledge, we decided to give the Persian restaurant Anar a go. A cool, intimate place with a relaxed atmosphere and very welcoming staff. The menu was quite small which always makes me happy and we decided to go for the four mezze dishes for 14, an extra salad and two skewers of minced lamb to share. For the wine, a 500ml carafe of Shiraz rose seemed like a good idea but at 17 (and it represents two large glasses) it was rather a lot to swallow, if you see what I mean.The food arrived very promptly. The first dish I tried, sauteed aubergine with walnuts, garlic, mint, onion and whey was a thickish dip that was just absolutely delicious. The ingredients had all been blended together and the resulting symphony of flavours was outstanding. Similarly a dish of yogurt and cucumber was fresh, creamy and scooped up with a little flat bread, a mouthful of pure pleasure. I should have asked if a machine produces these long, minced lamb skewers one sees everywhere in Middle Eastern restaurants but anyhow, the meat was juicy, moist and wonderfully spiced. The most interesting of dishes was a simple salad of radish, feta, olives, walnuts and fresh herbs. We were given a large bottle of olive oil and some fresh lemon to dress our own salad. Such a good idea. I wish everyone else would follow suit. I also really liked the way they cooked their rice – mostly plain white basmati with a little saffron soaked rice added. Fluffy rice heaven. I would have to say that the diced cucumber, tomato and onion salad was rather bland – it could have done with some herbs to pep it up but overall the food went down a treat.The bill, however, was around fifty quid. If this had been my home town of Harlesden, the price would have been closer to thirty pounds. Still, I would rather pay over the odds whilst knowing that what I put into my gob results in a highly pleasurable eating experience. mindingbellieswell.blogspot.com
