Diba Persian Restaurant Chelsea - Review - Chelsea - London - The Infatuation
"You could come to Diba for a joojeh skewer, but our favourite thing about this Persian restaurant on the far end of the King’s Road is the traditional specials like slow-cooked lamb shank or tomatoey zereshk polo. It’s a warm place to comfortably catch up with a group of friends, have a quiet, last-minute date on the mezzanine seating, or bring your entire family to share kashk e bademjan without worrying about overstaying your welcome. The grilled meats won’t blow you away, but they’re satisfying enough. And if you’re looking to switch it up from your usual, the dizi—slow-cooked lamb chunks with softened potatoes and chickpeas, mashed in a clay pot, before being wrapped in naan and dipped in a rich tomato sauce—is excellent. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch Pause Unmute Food Rundown Kashk Bademjan A rich, smoky aubergine dish that’s great to snack on while you wait for your mains. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch Dizi Mashing the lamb and potatoes is a little bit of a workout, but it’s worth it for the comforting stew that comes from it. Scoop the soft lamb up into the naan, and dip into the tomato sauce for a meal that’s extremely moreish. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch" - Rianne Shlebak
