Iranian Chill Thread

[Serpentine]

Who watched the last Game of Thrones episode? Tyrion's speech has been the highlight of this season so far. Absolutely epic.

Is that a spoiler too? I haven't watched the series yet and I'm about to start. Something tells me not to watch the video or it will expose too much of the series.

That's true.

Personally, I eat a lot of Thai/Japanese/Chinese food, more than Iranian food, WAY MORE. I haven't been to an Indian restaurant believe it or not. There's one close to where I live, but it's a 5 star restaurant and that ain't my scene lol

Not a big fan of spices tbh, but I'll be giving it a shot sooner or later. Iranians generally don't eat a lot of spiced up food, unless it's a meaty dish, and even then, spice isn't used as liberally as it's in Pakistani/Indian food. Iranian food is more about herbs than spices.

Exactly same here, most spiced dishes are from southeastern region, but even in them all the spice is about hotness in meat dishes.

Don't, it does spoil it a little.

After salt/pepper, the most widely used spice in Iranian food is Turmeric. Most of the time, it's these 3 spices that are used and nothing else (Turmeric only if there's red meat involved). In Kababs a few more spices are added. When red meat isn't involved, mostly just salt and pepper and lots of green herbs.

Spicy food isn't very popular either. Only in the Persian Gulf region.

Indian food can be good or bad depending on the restaurant. It's hard to rate it objectively but I would say Indian food(when done right) is overall better than most other cuisines. Try Rice + Butter chicken. Simple but delicious. Not all Indian food is spicy. In Canada spice is sparingly used because a lot of white people eat the food and they can't handle the spice either. You should try it. I will also try Iranian food. Afghan food is pretty good - one of my favourites actually.

Almost same, but third one for us is usually red pepper flakes or thyme(are these considered herbs ? I'm ignorant )

't read this part you guys, this is not for you people. Right now I am directly talking to the Lord himself. "Hey man you fail

Hey Guys, let me ask a question.
Why do I see almost 99 percent of the people around "brain farted"?
They might be represented in different styles like drivers, taxi drivers, shopkeepers, students, teachers, employees, ministers, presidents but mentally they all seem the same.
Even here on this forum is all the same, I believed I could see a change here on such an international forum but,... honestly, nothing. There might be no chance for the people to represent their kinda stupidity directly here, but they are all trying their best to represent their unique level of stupidity, even by entering into a nonsense, baseless, almost every weekly repeated, discussions.
Don't read this part you guys, this is not for you people. Right now I am directly talking to the Lord himself. "Hey man you failed me, creating such creatures"

What brought this in?

 

[SOS Brigade]

I like a bit of spice, I have a bottle of sriarcha sauce in the fridge and I like paprika as well. But I never order anything spicy at Indian restaurants, lol.

I know an Iranian family friend who loves spicy food!

really, I don't know.
Maybe it was the outburst of commutative bad feelings in a long time. But I do believe in it.
I am not a history specialist, but out of a comprehensive investigation in the history, I can tell you, the average people are getting dumber and dumber as the centuries and millenniums are passing by. They never stop making the same mistakes and they never learn from their own or their predecessors.

many dont even know proper history others think that they are above mistakes and even if they walk in the same path ....by some miracle they would get a different result

 

[MOHSENAM]

Hi everyone I had a good run here. I'm going to quit, I wouldn't be able to come back even if I wanted to. Good bye. Take a good care of yourselves.

 

[-SINAN-]

For first time I saw a restaurant that is based on Iranian Cuisine in Ankara, when its open I will try it but its most likely gonna be expensive :/

Where is it ?

Edit: I have seen the location.

 

[Targon]

There is a character from Iran in Karagöz and Hacivat shadow play, he's called Acem, he speaks with Azerbaijani Turkish though, he's a rich carpet dealer and loves poetry , he also likes having fun and looking to people from up.

It was hard to find a good pic with correct character but I guess that one is correct

 

[-SINAN-]

Yeah looks like its expensive

Expensive restaurant in Kızılay ???

Have you ever tried restaurants in Çankaya district or in the malls like Next level or Panora ?

You know, I believe there is a shinning sign on the forehead of all dumb people,
They always do the same shit as others and at the very same time they are always praying for a different outcome.
I do believe there shall be a low for hanging all those who have no special impact on this world, for those who live a life like a sheep, like a cow, those who never intend to increase their understandings their comprehension. those who don't know why they are living or even worse they never ever try to. And I am not afraid if even me, myself got hanged too.
This planet is the home for a population no more than 20 thousands, and the rest are useless and waste.
