Back in college, after having a few alcoholic drinks, staple food was Persian Cuisine. Not only is it affordable, it is very delicious! Fast forward to now, I found myself calling this as my comfort food all over again as I finally had the chance to try out Behrouz late 2011. It was that restaurant I kept looking at in Metrowalk area but never had the courage to try, and I sure did miss a lot!
Apparently, Behrouz is the first ever to serve Persian food in the Philippines! They had been around since March 1985 and has recently expanded to its fourth branch at Santana Grove, Sucat where I just had my pig-out lunch today! Other well-known branches are at Metrowalk, Wilson, and the oldest branch, Scout Rallos, Quezon City.
Here is a quick list of comfort food that I highly recommend you try:
 |
| Mirzu Ghazemi PhP100 |
Mirzu Ghazemi
o Uniquely Behrouz menu (you won't find this anywhere!) which is pureed fresh eggplant, perfectly
riped tomatoes, and garlic, topped with egg, best enjoyed with bread or basmati rice, flavor-filled
the natural way
 |
| Chelo Kebab Kobideh PhP270 |
Chelo Kebab Kobideh
o Basmati rice with 2 sticks of beef kebabs,
grilled tomato, butter
 |
| Vegetable salad PhP80 |
Vegetable salad
o Fresh ripe tomatoes, crunchy onions, lettuce,
cucumber with olive oil and calamansi; you’ll love that sweet combination of
fresh veggies tossed in just the right amount of dressing. Seems such a simple tossed salad yet so delicious! It is really amazing!
 |
| Chicken Barbecue PhP120 |
Chicken Barbecue
o Charbroiled chicken breast, marinated to juicy
perfection, definitely diet-friendly!
 |
| Hummus with BTO Php120 |

o Chick peas with best-seller garlic yogurt and
tahini, topped with beef tomato and onion (BTO), an appetizer best enjoyed with pita
bread
 |
| LTO (liver, tomato, and onion) PhP90 |
LTO (liver, tomato, and onion)
o This is beef liver sautéed in onions and
tomatoes
 |
| Chicken Kebab PhP100 |
Highly recommended Chicken Kebabs (Charbroiled
ground Chicken)
o Best for those watching their diet yet cannot let
go of the kebab taste!
 |
| Lamb Chops PhP350 |
Mouth-watering juicy Lamb Chops
o Just that tender and huge serving of Lamb Chops!
 |
| Ox Brain drizzled with calamansi, sprinkled with salt and pepper PhP80 |
o Patrons just can't leave Behrouz without ordering this! So I dare you to try it! Just make sure you had your BP checked :)
My lunch today at their Sucat branch? Fehnnnntastic! (As always)

It is very fortunate that the late Mr. Behrouz Mojdeh passed on his expertise and love for cooking to his son Modj who is now the General Manager for all branches. You will often see him visiting from branch to branch, ensuring the taste and quality are maintained in all 4 stores. Mr. Mohammad "Modj" Mojdeh is 32 years old, a graduate of Biology in Far Eastern University, and has been cooking with his Dad at Timog Branch (the first location for Behrouz) as a kid since 1992, where he fondly remembers being trained to marinate, cook, skewer, serve customers, and attend to the cash register. He is married to Joan with 3 lovely kids.
