At Behrouz, this would be Mirza Ghazemi. This dish is a dip made of eggplants, can be suitable for vegans if you ask to remove the fried egg on top. It's roasted flavor and creamy texture is just beautiful when paired with their flat bread. I guess it's like baba ganoush (or perhaps another name for it, please correct me if I'm wrong), though I would not compare it to hummus as hummus is another thing of beauty in its entirety. Though I have actually tried combining both hummus and baba ganoush/mirza ghazemi (I'm sorry as I understand this might be totally unforgivable to Middle Eastern cuisine!) and it was AMAZING.

We always order The Sultan's Kebab Platter. It's a combination of any 4 kebabs and/or koobideh of your choice. The platter also includes grilled tomatoes and shirazi salad. Their Braised Lamb Shank is mouthgasmic. The meat is fall of the bone and the sauce is delicious with buttered rice. Also, buttered rice ALL day! All in all, the price is super fair for quality and quantity! You are limited to beers and wines for beverages. But, do try the yummy Yogurt Shakes!

My go-to meal in their selection is mixed vegetables curry and zeera rice. Mixed vegetables curry is as flavourful as it gets and it best complements my other favourite rice dish, zeera rice. Zeera is an Indian word for cumin. They also serve grilled meat while you wait. Make sure to choose their mutton kebab and try their Black Chana Masala and pair them with wheat bread. If you are the type that likes to eat with their hands, you should always try that here and savour it. As they say, Middle Eastern food is best eaten with just your hands and bread.

I gave 3.5 stars because it isn't as good as other places i've been to - diluted garlic sauce and the chicken was too salty. In addition, they use some ketchup kind of hot sauce...cheap hot sauce. It still tastes good for what it is. Especially for the price. 5 USD for a solid meal...unreal. Plus its 24 hours which is nice. I'd come back only late at night when everything else is closed.

My parents believe that the food they serve here (at the U.P.-Ayala Technohub branch) is not at par…read morewith what they have at the main West Avenue Branch. I don't really necessarily agree with them, though we just pretty much indulge them most of the time anyway. However, one thing the Mister Kabab Technohub has over the main branch is airconditioning and during summer, this definitely trumps any culinary advantage the alternative choice may present. Don't tell my Dad, but to be honest the food isn't very different. It's still the Persian fare with its straight to the point shawarma. Straight to the point meaning sans the embellishments the Pinoy palate has thrown in like cheese etc. - iIt's just the beef, tomatoes, onions and cucumber. Throw them all in a pita and slather with the Middle Eastern sauces. I got the Shawarma plate, which is basically everything I mentioned except it was naked so I ordered two pieces of pita and kinda rolled the sandwiches on my own. (Distaster! My food was like all over the place. Remind me never to seek employment at a shawarma shack or a burrito stand or anything that would require me to assemble something like that. If ever I do, do not buy from me.) I also got a glass of lassi shake. Clearly, I was overestimating my capacity here cos I could barely move after wolfing all that down. So if ever you find yourself craving for some Persian during a particularly warm day, or if you just prefer a cozier & more intimate setting, or if you're really just closer to the U.P. area, head on over to Mister Kabab Technohub.

But, this branch is away from all that. It's a bit hidden away and just across Ace Hotel. Since day one of eating here with Carlo, we practically almost, always order the same thing: We order their Keema with Buttered Rice, Kofta Balls (if they are available), and the Kebab Platter which already has the beef and chicken kebabs! On lucky days, there will be Ox Brain and you must try it! I promise you. It is delicious. Don't forget to pour on the garlic sauce and you have an awesome meal that is super affordable and fills you up real good. :) Ambience-wise, well, don't expect much. It really is not fancy. Also, there are only 4 tables inside and 4 table outside. But, give this place a chance. Oh, the beers are cheap too!

Everything said about the chicken kebab is true, so incredibly good with the salsa and white sauce. You don't have to be drunk to appreciate the goodness. Just a word of caution, this isn't a fancy place with amazing interiors. It's very simple with about 4-5 tables indoors and 4 tables outdoors. I will definitely be back for the kebabs though and to try the other stuff in the menu.

One, the food is inexpensive and simple, served straight up with no frou-frou or tweaked versions of classic Middle Eastern/Mediterranean dishes. It seems to me that what you eat is here what people have been eating in those parts of the world for centuries. I really enjoy their flafel - crispy on the outside, rightly mushy in the middle, and all subtly seasoned. It's the perfect size, too, so I never overstuff myself despite the temptation. I like how they cook their kabab and chelo kabab, too. The chicken is a no-fail for me because it's always so tender! My other recommendations would be the ox-tail and the korma dishes. The second reason is the service, or at least the service I get at their Fisher Mall branch. They're always so warm and attentive. One time, we stayed here for almost four hours and nobody gave a bleep. I love that! I've seen different groups of people here - families, friends, loud ones, quiet ones. I've eaten here alone. I never regret any visit!

Ah, Mister Kebab... that's pretty good nosh right there. Firstly, let me say that their keema is something I dreamt about for days. It's the sort of memorable flavor that stays with you. It's the perfect blend of salt and spices that's neither too overpowering or confused. And the best part is they don't even lie when they call it sizzling. It comes to you hot and fresh and really good with nary a wait. And I rather like their ambiance. It doesn't look at all cheap nor does it look inanely modernized. It sticks to the Middle Eastern theme rather well, imho. There's always some detail you'll end up noticing every time you go so staring at the walls while you're eating isn't necessarily a bad idea. Go on, take in the ambiance. It'll make your meal taste twice as good.
