Picked by Chef Amazing; nobody pays to be here. A place shows only after Chef finds a page that shows it open now. Photos are the restaurant's own where we have one; otherwise a dish of Iran, labelled, not that restaurant. Spot a mistake? Write to us.

Chef Amazing remembers every place you ate, keeps the lists friends send you, and helps you cook it at home.
