My pick is the gozleme or the chicken burger (chicken is a processed pattie but awesome all the same) 3. Decor must be crappy but it does have a TV and the food and servers make up for it. I first discovered this family run place several years ago when my BFF was working a few doors down. They have a huge menu of pizzas (made to order or ready to buy, by the huge slice). They also do pide, dip plates, kebabs, gozleme, fish and chips and burgers. Worst thing about this place is the parking. Paid parking out the front (adds about 50c for a meal wait and take away) and it's a clearway in the afternoons out the front. But a walk is worth it.

I've been here twice and I liked it much better the second time. I think the secret is making sure you order the right kind of sauce with your kebab. Last time I got BBQ and Garlic on my Falafel and wasn't a huge fan. This time I got hummus and enjoyed it much more! Casual dinning and sitting areas inside and out. Great for a quick bite or to go.

And that's why booze is the great leveller isn't it?) This guys manning the counter are the friendliest chaps in Crows Nest. They're all smiles, and go about their business with a calm and relaxing surety that makes me wanna hang out in there and chat instead of ripping my kebab in the gutter like a hungry homeless man like I normally do. I mentioned that this place is open late and I'm normally bladdered, right? Final word: any kebab ordered without both chilli and garlic sauce is a crime against king, country and humanity and punishable by court martial. No exceptions.

I ordered a lady finger based on how it looked because I couldn't find a description. I thought it was just okay. The next item was called cabbage roll. Again, no description. It was way too salty so I binned it. The last thing I had was Baba Ghanoush. There was no description but I think I've had it before. The picture showed the dish served with some kind of bread. My mistake was assuming that it came with flatbread or naan, but it didn't. Eating without an accompaniment just didn't work for me. As I said at the beginning, it could be my tastes just didn't appreciate this kind of food.

Amazingly moorish juicy meat that simply melts in your mouth with the slightest pressure of your tongue. And the taste? OMG! So good!! Bastourma is succulent dry cured beef, crusted in spices, much like pastrami, and in a kebab with egg cooked by Joe who has been serving in Lindfield for over 20 years...... is fucking amazing!! Driving past Lindfield? On a train up the North Shore Line? STOP & TRY IT!!

Location, location, location... and this doesn't have it…read more This restaurant is tucked away below, under and around the back of a retail complex in Castlecrag that also happens to be at the end of the street my mum lives in. Over the last 20 years I've seen 4 or 5 different restaurants come and go, and I feel for them because they can be the best places in the world, but nobody knows they're there and there's no foot traffic. The kit-out at Cyrus is terrific, it's cozy and classy all at once, transporting you right back to Persia (assuming that you've, y'know, been there before. Or hell, maybe you've just seen Aladdin about a hundred times). The menu is heavy on delicious, spiced lamb and beef shish kebabs, great mounds of fragrant rice, char-grilled chilli, minted yoghurts, and lots of eggplant dishes. I wasn't a giant fan of the pickled vegetables for entree - quite vinegary - but that probably says more about my palate than the dish itself. The lamb kebab was unreal, confirming my suspicions that I am indeed a Meat Man. Always was, always will be. Take that statement as you will.

Started with garlic yogurt, nice and creamy but no garlic, and a salad with a very strange lemon dressing. Next we had a fish kebab, very dry and tasteless, with only plain boiled rice. The vegetable casserole was ok but there wasn't much of it. It looked like an accompaniment to a meat dish. We couldn't have the Persian dessert, as they didn't have any that night, or coffee because no one could make it. Maybe it's better on a Saturday night, but I won't be back to find out.
