Wednesday - Safran with Hunter Pig

On Wednesday I went with Hunter Pig for a bite to eat at Safran followed by a couple of cocktails at Wax Bar and Juke Joint which is newly opened on North Street. We had both heard really good things about Safran and it didn't let us down. The restaurant is a little off the beaten track, but it is definitely worth making the effort to find - don't get me wrong, this is no fine dining but a family run Persian restaurant that cooks simple and interesting food really well at a bargain price - at the moment it is had a BYOB policy which is another big plus point, although they are actively looking to get an alcohol license at the moment. The food is very similar to Davish which we reviewed last year, so have a look here for a more detailed run-down of the sort of food to expect - they are both delicious but for me Davish has the edge.
