      @@GaryEats I love your videos - greetings from Cymru. Also love Persian dishes, having been put on to them by a friend who worked out there during the immediate pre-Khomeini period. Mild and sweet flavours merge with spices and the result is marvellous. Love the way you review, cool, calm and carrying a pack of Rennies just in case?

    Persian food is mild. There is no overpowering smell, taste, or colour because it is all about balance. Iranians use lots of dried fruits such as plums, barberries, and aromatic herbs and spices like cardamom, cinnamon, and saffron in most main dishes.

      I guess you are having a go at Indian cuisine the reason it's spicy and aromatic or smelly is because of the spices which remove toxins from your body that cause various illnesses ailments.

    I tried to post a response... I failed. Attempt no. 2: Persian food is very sophisticated. Persians and Arabs both squeeze lemon juice in their soup. You are right that it enhances the flavour. The marinated and perfectly cooked poussin hidden under a mountain of luxuriously prepared rice, with a salad decorating the edge of the serving platter, did look absolutely appetising. I could almost smell the aroma. 😊 The tea looked delicious as well. Everything was so beautifully presented. The staff at the restaurant must be chuffed with your review. I knew that you would rate it 11 or higher. You looked so happy with it all, as if it was beyond your expectations. I must visit the restaurant myself. Thank you for taking us along.

    My Aunt was Iranian and every time we visited (in the 70's/80's) from Stoke the food was always amazing. This video showed for the first time how I remembered how the food looked. Plus as you say tasty not spicy, a subtle but crucial difference. I would deeply enjoy if Iranian (Persian) food was as widely accessible as all other genres in the UK. By the way also including British varieties of traditional food, e.g. hotpot, scouse, various scones, north staffordshire oatcakes, etc on the popular food delivery sites would really help to diversify the choices available whilst hopefully keeping local food choices alive.

    I do like some beach time when on holiday. But I'd rather spend an evening eating at a local restaurant where the locals go.

    Hi Gary ! This is a pleasant surprise - Persian food ! We've got that here in Sydney, too, and it is amazing . The way they cook rice with that buttery crusty bottom, wow. They are the guys who came up with biryani. They also built the Taj Mahal. And about barberries. You can still find them in English hedgerows, but wherever it's found, it's destroyed, because it harbours the wheat rust fungus. They love it in their jams, too. I think it's more interesting than cranberries. Beautiful restaurant. All their restaurants are beautiful. And I've always thought it's a great idea for any restaurant to sell their products in-house, like chilli oil, etc. I'll check out your new website and merchandise. Thanks, Gary. You're really pumping out the videos ! I think you just discovered something about Persian cuisine - you don't only get food, you get the culture. The late , great Anthony Bourdan had a whole episode dedicated to eating in Iran. It blew my mind. You can only get that in Iran. But for now, restaurants like Bamanoosh will do quite nicely. Iran gets a bad rap. But I've seen videos, people wandering the streets filming ( on You Tube ) and you know what, the girls are wearing similar fashions to what I see in Sydney, and people are genuinely happy. You want to know what people are really like, go to their country, and see for yourself, don't hear it from others or the main stream media. Thanks again, Gary !

    Gary, the food looked gorgeous. Here is a recommendation for your scoring from now on - any establishment that you think exceeds the highest score of 10, give it a 10/10+ (plus or 10/10* (star) instead of 11, 12 etc. If you give it a 10+ or a 10* then this will be sufficient that the establishment exceeds the top mark you can give. It also means that no exceptional place is open to dispute or any further subjective / objective markings. In essence, markings in comparison wither others of equal stature become irrelevant as the standards are so good.

    Just on presentation alone, I'd give this place 20/10, Gary! Lol
    I'm so sad that I'll never get to taste Persian food, because it looks like a true symphony of taste, texture, & scent!
    Just the look on your face when you tasted the tea said it all - I would have been happy simply to try that soup, as I was practically salivating seeing it.
    Then you went on to the chicken & rice dish - such a plebian description of something that looked like art on a plate! Lol
    Even sharing with your son, I'm amazed that you finished it all, as those portions were more than generous.
    I just laughed to myself, thinking about the carvery you'd been to, with almost cold food, that, frankly, looked like someone's leftovers, compared to the Persian food!
    I envy you being able to go back there whenever you feel like it, to explore everything on their menu! 👍

    This video was especially good, Gary . So much so that I felt I wanted to watch it twice before commenting.I have invariably found Iranian's to be extremely courteous and refined. They have a proud, ancient and noble culture. Your choice of visiting a well recommended Persian restaurant was an exotic, culinary masterstroke.
    My reactions as you showed us this restaurant were that this restaurant was indeed special. You could FEEL it and discern it.Heart and soul were strongly perceived in the beauty of the authentic decor and the personal decorative arrangements. This seemed much more than a mere " business".
    I discerned a real heart to this restaurant . No doubt coming from proud Iranian owners.
    I've no doubt that seeing the food itself was a real treat bit just for myself but for many other viewers because it all seemed so novel and 'un-encountered' before. It made this particular video exciting. How many food review videos can you honestly say that about, Gary?
    The whole experience you had sounded sublime and very synergistic with all the different sensory components coming together to make a' whole' experience which transcended any of the usual words of praise.
    When you can be fortunate enough to have an experience like you just had here, Gary, you elevate these food-tasting videos.
    It's just as well you are the food reviewer you are because trips like this challenge you in a good way and bring out the best in you and what you are always attempting to convey to the viewer.
    This beautiful and special restaurant; the exquisite food, and your personal experience here, lift one's soul. That's special and to be savoured.
    I can see why you feel it's somewhere you want to go back to time and time again.
    Thank you, Gary. Keep doing what you're doing.

    I once had an authentic Parisian barley soup, and I have to say, lemon is the key! it adds such a unique flavor! You’ve perfectly described these kinds of dishes as “borderline complicated without complications.” They may look simple, but their taste is incredibly sophisticated. The only thing I would suggest is pouring some of the sauce that came with the chicken over both the rice and chicken-it would have made it doubly delicious!

    I've not been a subscriber for long, but I was impressed from the start by how calm and natural your presentation style is. Would that more of the UA-cam food review content providers would sometimes just relax into their work and stop trying too hard! No names because my point is a subjective one, but the - obviously genuine - sheer joy in your facial expression puts you a class above some.
    I stay way up in the frozen North East but am determined to go on a road trip in my old camper van in order to sample at least a few of the venues that you enjoyed.

    Great video. As I started watching this I poured myself a Turkish tea(after ages from my wardrobe), not very different from Persian Tea, full of rose petals, tea, cardamom...and enjoyed your meal a little more. As an Indian, Persian cuisine can be mild which is a good thing. My personal experiences have been mixed for the places I have tried it at, sometimes the meat tends to be dryish, and sometimes the flavors are not uniform, so I am glad everything was a 10 on 10 for you. May be next time you can try some dessert there too.

    My neighbours are Iranian and they occasionally give me food. It's absolutely delicious. I have the best neighbours. They describe themselves as Iranian but their cooking as Persian.
    The soup looked absolutely fantastic. I like white plates too. Don't like the modern trend in table wear. The mains could not have looked more appetizing. Beautiful. That's a good main for £19. Look at all that rice and salad.
    The lamb looked great. Love the crunch when Gary bit in.
    There was enough food for two there, the tea looked like an event. Such a wonderful experience.
    It's a 10. 😁 Even on price, that was very competitive. It's a 10 plus as you say Gary. Great review as always. Bring on 100k.

    That looked really good Gary. The restaurant itself looked lovely and the food looked stunning and good generous portions too. Not like that dinner you had at Ramsay's place.
    That looked so much better than the Persian meal my brother and I had at a Persian restaurant in Plymouth that Jay Rayner wrote a rave review about in The Observer last Summer. He must have been drunk the night he went there. I enjoyed my food but it didn't blow me away like I expected and my brother absolutely hated his. But now we know. Once again that looked superb.
    Yes Persian food is much more fragrant and subtle than the hot burning chilli flavours a lot of people are used to and that suits me perfectly.

    My go to restaurant/Cafe food review channel, Keep it up Garry, I binned the MacMaster and Darren John a while back as they just end up whining about what's going wrong in their lives! Keep it food Garry! 👍

      I've watched that DJ channel ( just recently) and he picked out a few decent places,but he kind of seems preoccupied or likes aiming the Camera at himself?& smirking as if he's in the possession of a private Joke&jthen he just stuff's his face,without really revealing a great deal!.So after a few Vids,that got kind of old!
      As opposed to this Chap,who does very thorough, 'Down to earth' straightforward,unpretentious reviews!
      And this food looked really nice!

      @@scotty6346 My goodness! And I agree👍..And speaking from the perspective of being born in the E.End ( to Irish ☘️ Parents) I have met more than my fill of Flashy,conceited people from there& he comes across just a little like that! And that's why he bought the Super Glue for his Barnet!
