is the paradise of foodies
Every province and even every city of Iran has its specific delectable dishes
So, one can enjoy a wide range of foods here in Iran and Kermanshah is one of the most popular places among foodies.The cornerstone of every
Persian meal is rice or Polo
Persian cuisine is, above all, about balance — of tastes and flavors, textures and temperatures
In every meal, even on every plate, you’ll find both sweet and sour, soft and crunchy, cooked and raw, hot and cold.No Persian meal is
complete without an abundance of herbs
Every table is set with sabzi-khordan, a basket of fresh herbs, radishes, and scallions, which are eaten raw and by the handful, often
tucked into a piece of fresh flatbread with a bite of feta, cucumber, or walnuts.Experts believe that food tourism has become one of the
most dynamic and creative segments of tourism and, at the same time, has naturally positioned itself as an element of diversification of
tourism with a high impact on the promotion of sustainable development at the regional and local levels.In 2020, Iran joined an online
campaign launched by the UNWTO to promote gastronomy as an essential part of tourism
Iranian cuisine, usually dominated by fragrant herbs, varies from region to region
It principally accentuates freshness, deliciousness, and colorfulness.ABU/AM
