Bastani Zaferani with Pistachio

Saffron Bastani (Traditional Persian Ice Cream)

Experience the most iconic and authentic Persian dessert with Chef Javad’s Traditional Saffron Bastani. This is more than just ice cream; it’s a celebrated classic and a must-try at one of the best Persian restaurants in London.

Our Bastani (Bastani Sonnati) is made in-house using a cherished recipe. It features a rich, creamy base generously infused with premium saffron, which provides its beautiful golden hue and unmistakable, luxurious aroma.

What makes this traditional ice cream truly special are the lavish inclusions: a generous helping of crunchy, roasted pistachio pieces and decadent slivers of frozen clotted cream (khameh), which create a uniquely delightful texture. This is a refreshingly sweet, fragrant, and truly authentic treat to complete your dining experience.
