01 — Fire

Oak & ember

Every evening starts the same way: a bed of oak charcoal, lit at four, glowing by six.

02 — The grill

Over open coals

A long steel mangal, no gas, no shortcuts. The heat comes from below and the smoke does the rest.

03 — Koobideh

Pressed by hand

Minced lamb, grated onion and a little salt, pressed onto wide steel blades one finger at a time.

04 — The table

Bread, sumac, fire

Served on warm lavash with charred tomatoes, raw onion, fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon.

05 — Your seat

Pull up a chair

The skewer comes off at the table. The butter melts on its own. Tables from 5 pm, Tuesday to Sunday.

The fire

Nothing here is cooked on gas

Our grill master learned on a mangal in Isfahan. He still lights it the same way: oak charcoal from a Sussex woodland, a hand fan, and patience. The saffron comes from Torbat-e Heydarieh, the bread is baked next door every morning.
