Miss Kebab


Kebab places have sprouted like crazy ever since the success of the more popular ones-Mister Kebab and Behrouz. I am a huge Kebab fan and it is a no-brainer choice when deciding with like-appetite friends on where to eat before or after a night of debauchery. A popular choice among people would be the Chelo Kebab and this dish is my main basis for ranking these Kebab Places. Other factors are variety of menu, price, service, etc.

  1. Persia Grille, Valero Makati City

- Aside from the usual white and red sauce, they have a special yogurt-based sauce that tastes like no other and is perfect for the grilled meat of Chelo Kebab. They also serve it with a heap of long-grain rice with butter. They also have dishes that are quite uncommon but good such as the chicken dishes. Service is good and the ambience is tops (comparatively with Kebab restos) and prices are not bad at P200-300.

  1. Mister Kebab, Timog Quezon City

- The crazy waiting list in this resto makes one wonder if this place is worth it. The answer is yes! For only P100-P200 one can enjoy their Kebab fares. The meat is done right and the red and white sauce taste as it should. Their new location also has a bigger and better ambiance. Sadly the line is still as crazy.

  1. Behrouz, Wilson San Juan

- Behrouz is a classic and is ever dependable. Sadly the rising prices (P300-P400) and the badly maintained restos (save for the one in Metrowalk) makes it a number 3.

  1. King’s Kebab, Katipunan Quezon City/Shaw Mandaluyong

- They deliver the basic- tomato, onions, grilled meat, and the red/white sauce. The menu is also pretty limited. The dishes taste okay but I wouldn’t really go back here except that it’s near where I live.

  1. Perspolis, Katipunan Quezon City

- I figured the taste would be nice as the cartoon is supposedly great. I mean, the owners got to be knowledgeable of Iran and the Mid-east. Sadly I found the whole experience (food, ambiance) just wanting. Then again they are pretty cheap at P150-200.
