The shop where Abdullah, my favourite Afgan kebab-craftsman came to work after graduating from the Caspian school of excellence. Maz didn’t want to give out a part share in the business, such is politics on the 'mile. We didn’t come here as much as 'scaps, but only by virtue of it’s location. The food is great - you can’t beat freshly made dough slapped onto the side of a vertical clay over with tender chunks of marinated lamb and lashings of sauce. You really can’t.

Abdullah had come over here from Afganistan after his dad was killed by a soviet landmine in the war. He was a lovely guy, very quiet and unassuming, but disillusioned about serving the hoards of idiot drunken students at 4am, as well you might be after a while. Not sure how we avoided being tarred with that brush, but me and Toucs became friends with him and even exchanged numbers. Last I heard from his brother that he’d gone back home, I hope he’s doing ok.

This may be controversial... but I would say this place makes the BEST kebabs on the curry mile, if not the world. Caspians is good but these guys just seem to put more care into the kebabs - the meat is always perfectly tender and well-seasoned, the bread is always soft and fresh. The sauce doesn't quite match Capsians' infamous "sexy sauce" but it's spicier at Al Quds, which I like.

This is the place for Kobodeh - a proper Iranian kebab. They may not have a large range of dining options and indeed their attempts at pizza may be piss poor but you don't go to Gordon Ramsay's for a big mac do you?

go there. daz snow said so.
