My “Noosh-e-Jaan” (Bon appetit)debut Persian food experience at Saffron, the first and only Persian Restaurant in HK, and I’ve been awesomely impressed!The dinner started with two traditional Persian Drinks … their signature Saffron Lemonade and I have Orange Blossom Drink which have lovely mellow aroma of orange blossom and slight sweetness.Then we have two yogurt appetisers - Mirza Ghasemi 烤茄子泥 and Mast-O-Khiyar波斯風味青瓜乳酪蘸醬 that pleasantly refreshed our taste buds.Highlight of the dinner obvious

Ghormeh Sabzi 香草羊肉腰豆羹配番紅花飯。羊肉羹不僅看來如野菜湯羹，連氣味就如攪爛的草藥!侍應端上來時，頓時心想：「這氣味好古怪，有點像中藥，更像台灣7-11的關東煮，但要強上3倍!」吃一口，有一種熟悉的香草味，卻又說不出是甚麼(苦惱中......)。同時，內裏有好多腰豆(難不成這頓飯我所吃的腰豆比我之前所吃的，還要來得多?)羊肉則炆得腍，一嚼就散開，不下於媽煲豬骨湯所剩下的豬肉。驚訝的是，羊肉不羶，還以為是牛腩。番紅花飯可沒有番紅花味，但卻粒粒分明且軟硬適中，好味!外形看來像印度米，但更長。羊肉羹混和米飯吃，頓昤勾起大學時所吃的粟米肉粒飯!(還好不是肉磚)其實，我覺得這是波斯咖哩。Gheymeh Bademjan蕃茄茄子羊肉羹，拌有黃碗豆和青豆。氣味較Ghormeh Sabzi 來正常，而味道則是蕃茄汁味，豆類可以增加咀嚼的層次。羊肉仍然是腍，但羶味較濃，是我喜歡的口味!跟Ghormeh Sabzi 用上一樣的香草，就是不懂得它的名稱，陷入苦惱......Fesenjan配番紅花茶 我喜歡凍飲，但番紅花茶卻是少數的例外。熱的番紅花茶能帶出番紅花茶的香味(近乎的淡淡玫瑰花味

左上：不會融化在咀的番紅花雪糕！這是我所吃過的雪糕中最美味的！番紅花配上玫瑰水，雪糕透著一股清新的花香，令人心曠神怡！雪糕質地則十分幼滑，尤如薯蓉般稠密，在咀巴裏要過好久才會化開！右上：沒有雨落的波斯乳酪！Mast-O-Musir（反正我不會唸！點菜時，手指著圖，唸著this, this便行）的乳酪味道如普遍中東菜般突出，毫不含蓄。內裏的紅蔥頭為酸酸的乳酪，帶來鮮明的蔥香，尤是萬綠叢中一點紅。左下：極致卻簡單的雞翼！家人說這是最美味的雞翼！沒有經過油炸，只經過單純的烤烘，雞翼的皮達到最極限的香脆，卻仍保留彈性，十分香口！滿口的香烤味！沒有孜然粉，沒有黑椒粒，雞翼卻透出遠非雞肉所有的肉香（應該是混和燒烤爐的其他肉香）！這應該是中東獨有的燒烤爐所能做到。右下：烤雞肉和牛肉黏在一起的串燒，一次過吃兩種肉！細長的古斯米有薄薄的油香。同時，黃色的番紅花飯有其獨特的清香，一次過嚐到兩種飯味。

As an iraninan, i guarantee their taste is similar to what we have in our country Their kebabs are perfect.Most HKers (same as my gf) can not eat lamb, but i promise you will be ok after trying their lamb. The most famous food of Iran is GhormehSabzi.If you have never tried it, it is a mustIf you are a tea lover, try their Saffron Tea 🍵

可能我自己對異國菜式，比較有偏好。這家餐館，完全無另我失望。知道佢開咗。就直覺要去品嚐。環境優雅，裝潢得宜，乾淨。肉類拼飯，三隻肉，雞牛羊肉，都叫咗。全部超好味。肉質食得出是先手打過的。飲品有熱凍。我叫杯橙xx茶。很ok。晚餐都不少人流。午餐應該排隊了。推薦！！ 鴨公仔是自己帶去的，送朋友的。

串燒配飯，串燒兩味唔算好多，兩個人share其實只係啱啱夠，飯就好多，夠晒大堆頭，再加少少配菜，正常發揮。沙律係好食嘅，夠新鮮份量比較少。服務OK環境OK，每人都要over $200，感覺略貴，以佢嘅味道同份量，我覺得每人Below $150 比較合理

In Hong Kong it’s rare to find Persian Food and there’s only one place which is Saffron. Their kebab have it’s unique flavour either it’s chicken 🍗 , beef 🥩 or lamb🐑.During my visit with a friend there we tried two dishes which is🐓Chicken Koobideh with Rice🍛$124-(8/10)⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🐑Lamb Koobideh with Naan🫓 $145-(8/10)⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️And for the drink I asked the staff for a recommendation and they recommended me to try the original Persian Black Tea.Persian Black Tea🫖 (Organic)$48-(10/10)⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️• Amazing style of us

Confirmed reservation for 6.30pm dinner. Day before dinner, received call from Saffron asking us to attend early and leave by 7pm because there would be some sort of party there. Seems obvious the party reservation came later than ours. Total disappointed with Saffron.

得知呢間喺香港首間波斯菜餐廳， 所以要過嚟試吓！ 餐廳 乾淨整齊，其中一面用咗鏡面飾牆， 餐牌用了充滿民族風嘅地氈圖案作封面～同友人點了🌯Kebab Lovers ($688), 上枱時真係嘩一聲🤩原來都幾大碟，份量足夠產3-4個人食， 對於2個人來講有點吃力， 真係飽到捧住個肚！入面有齊雞牛羊豬肉串，超豐富！肉串、蔬菜、雞翼烤到剛剛好同時有焦香～雞胸同羊肉就較為乾～🍚Saffron rice好香，粒粒分明有咬口，而最底的🫓Naan吸到咗肉汁，包住啲餡嚟食幾正！我地食的時間都無將所有材料包住食，反而係每樣都試下單獨包住再加醬汁咁食都好好味～🌟而個人重點推介係三款醬料！有辣醬、青醬同蒜醬，青醬同蒜醬好食到我要再Encore😋無論係沾肉或撈飯都好好食！（加醬係唔需要加錢㗎～）🌺最後叫咗Bastini 藏紅花雪糕($68)，幾特別，超濃玫瑰味，懵裝上都寫咗係用口感似雪芭多啲～ 我哋另外都叫咗藏紅花檸水， 味道普通，所以就冇特別講啦～唯一缺點係地點稍為偏僻及位於斜路， 店舖的座位亦比較少，所以最好先預約～

自從找到這一間地道的波斯歺廳後，我經常來作客，每次水準都很好👍！肉質鮮嫩、每粒沙律都是老闆廚師用愛心手切，自家制蒜蓉醬！他們有名的慢煮羊肉也是一絕但要晚上才serve! Set Lunch 很實惠！Portion 很大！別忘記order 清香的Persian Black Tea!

Great experience with Persian food! Lamb Koobideh with saffron rice. Orange Blossom Tea. Love the juicy, flavourful meat and the crispy edges. Thought the minced meat mixed with the spices so it gives a bright flavour. Orange Blossom Tea is refreshing and pleasant aroma. We really enjoyed the simply but tasty meal.

It's my first time trying Persian Cuisine at LOVEAT. Kebab Kobideh is one of the old dishes of Iran. It's a grilled meat dish that made with ground lamb, chicken, beef or a combination of the two. Whether the lamb, chicken or beef, all tasted incredibly moist and flavorful because it's marinaded with a mixture of saffron, onion and yoghurt. Served with Naan / Saffron rice and homemade garlic sauce.- Mix Koobideh with Naan (HKD168)- Bakhtiyari with Rice (HKD160)- Royal Saffron Sharbat (HKD48)

小妹略讀史書，對伊朗之認識，全是書本上文字和圖片。 伊朗地處中東，歷史疾風怒濤，但波斯美食，味道微妙溫柔，百聞不如一見。聞名遐邇的 Persian Kabab，試了 ground meat 的 Koobideh，和牛肉拼雞肉燒烤 Bakhtiyari。【Bakhtiyari 可以分開叫  Chenjeh 或者 Joojeh。Chenjeh 像牛扒（或者羊扒）而 Joojeh 則是剩烤雞肉。唯著名的 Barg（切成 thin strip 的牛柳 [ 或者其他肉 ] 以洋蔥汁浸醃後燒烤），則 Saffron 並未提供。】Koobideh 肉汁豐盈，Bakhtiyari 牛肉也烤得外香內嫩，至於雞肉，嗯，始終是用了雞肉中的白肉，脂肪不多，是有點兒不夠嫩滑既。不過我常常掛在口邊，這是燒烤啊，雞白肉口感還是可以啊。兩道 Kababs 都有清晰，層次井然的味道。然而波斯菜沒有印度那樣用上大量香料讓味蕾應接不暇，也不像其他中東地方（例如阿拉伯人的中東）有些菜式那樣辛香爭鋒。波斯菜好像只有一兩種香料（似乎都逃不過用番紅花）。然而 Kabab 沾 garlic sauce，卻表現細緻深刻的 savour
