Iraqi kebab is deceptively simple: freshly minced lamb and beef, onion, parsley and a restrained hand with the spices — then everything depends on the fire. Our kebab is pressed onto flat skewers by hand and grilled over live charcoal, which sears a savoury crust in seconds while the inside stays juicy.
Alongside the Erbil kebab we grill shishlik (marinated lamb chops), shish tawook, kofta and mixed grill platters, plus grilled sea bass, zubaidi and tiger shrimp for the table. Everything arrives with grilled tomato and onion, sumac, fresh herbs and bread straight from the oven.
There is no gas grill in either kitchen. That is the difference you taste, and it is why people have driven to our
Iraqi restaurant in Deira, Dubai since 2003 — and now to the
best Arabic & Iraqi restaurant in Sharjah.
