What Makes It Awesome?

Hyderabad and Mumbai are the cities that are most popular for the Iranian Cafes/Restaurants but also Pune, fortunately, has its own share of Parsi cuisine-based restaurants like Irani Cafe which is immensely loved and popular, and is visited very frequently by the residents here.
I recently had the opportunity to visit Irani Cafe at Kalyani Nagar and I am very glad to say, this place definitely lived up to my expectations. This Cafe-Restaurant has a wide variety in the menu compared to most other cafes as it serves both Breakfasts as well as Lunch/Dinner options.
The seating is decent with a wide area for you to grab a comforting breakfast or a delicious meal with your friends and colleagues. Now I would like to go into the details of what food I tried here and how I liked it
Irani Cafe is mostly popular for its Breakfast. Many of us spend most of our peaceful Sunday mornings enjoying Bun Maska or Jam Roll while sipping on Hot Irani Chai.

And for most of us, it is also the only favourite place in town for the best Cheese Omelettes and a cup of traditional Irani Black Tea.

Personally, for me the first thing that comes to my mind when I think of Parsi food is Kheema. This is one recipe that the Iranian restaurants never go wrong with and also one of the most recommended dishes here. Irani Cafe has the options of Chicken/Mutton Kheema and also Chicken/Mutton Kheema Gotala.
Do not miss the Kebab with Rice & Pulao options in the Menu. The Kebabs are mildly spiced, mixed with Persian Herbs and Saffron bringing out the authentic Persian flavour in every bite.

Chicken Kheema and Joojeh Kebab:
Combine them with the options of Cold Beverages like Lemon Ice Tea, Shekanjabeen or some Sweet Cold Coffee and here is the best and perfect meal for one.

And yes do not forget, that this cafe is also very well known for its amazing variety for cakes (Cheese / Mousse Cakes), Pastries, Bakery products etc. But what I would particularly recommend the mango/blueberry cheesecake, coconut pastry, strawberry/chocolate mousse cake and yes, of course, a variety of biscuits and cookies for you to carry home.

I have particularly always enjoyed the food here and am very thankful for keeping the culture of Persian food alive in India and it is one of my favourite cuisines.
