9. Asal Sweet
Reviewed By Jackie M
The Asal Sweet store in Merrylands is a satellite store to the hard-to-find Granville parent. It's been open for about nine months, and is a family business, building upon twenty-five years of pastry experience in Tehran, Iran.Their well-stocked counter is full of traditional Iranian shirini khoshk (dry sweets) and French-influenced shirini tar (moist sweets). This particular store specialises in cookies and the shirini nargili (coconut cookies) are amazing.They look like theyâre going to be quite hard, but youâll find they have moist centres. Youâll also find almond, saffron and sultana versions, all priced at a buck apiece, but itâs the coconut macaroon-style cookies that won me. Though if you're allergic to wheat, ask for naan berenji - they're a rice-based cookie, that's turned yellow with saffron (a typical Persian ingredient).As with most sweet shops from this part of the world, because cookies are common gifts and served to visitors to your home, theyâre mostly bought by the kilo or half kilo ($24/kilo). Youâll save money by purchasing this way too. Jump into a booth and try a few different cookies over one of their robust coffees to help you decide.
8. Shiraz Ice Cream
Reviewed By Jackie M
Nothing is better on a hot day than an icy treat, so I'm always excited to discover a new one. The Taste Food Tours crew recently introduced me to a beauty in Merrylands. On your next sunny day off, get yourself to Shiraz Ice Cream on the main drag of Merrylands, and settle in with a bowl of Faloodeh Ice Cream ($7).It's a typical Iranian dessert that has two key elements. The first is Persian ice cream, flavoured with saffron from Saffron Only (read about this company HERE), rose water and dotted with chunks of heavy cream. The second element to this dessert are frozen white noodles made from starch and rose water. This typical Iranian dessert is best eaten in, so you can partake of the two sauce bottles attached to the tables. The red one is sour cherry, and the yellow one is lemon, and they're delicious over the noodles in particular.By dining in, you'll also get an eyeful of some photos of Shiraz; the sixth largest city in Iran. And if the name sounds familiar because of the wine, Shiraz is actually the place where the world's oldest sample of wine was discovered in clay jars dating back approximately seven thousand years.Staff are super friendly, so don't get intimidated by menu items you don't understand - just ask what they are, and you'll likely be offered a sample. Next time I visit, I'm going to take a risk and try their famous Carrot Ice Cream ($8), served as a shake - while I'm sure it'll be delicious, it sounds suspiciously healthy.

Not up to the standard I was expecting having read previous reviews and having eaten there before.The lunch menu looked promising but the serves were minuscule and rather mean. For examle one cherry tomato in a salad. Perhaps the chef was having a bad day in the extreme heat!thank you... good to know. we will look into it. dishes are about half the price of our old main courses and meant to be share plate dishes in between entree and main size. thank you and best wishes for the New Year

Thoroughly enjoyed delicious baked eggs & chorizo (shakshuka) with a tomatoey sauce that my daughter kept stealing with her bread. My other daughter had French toast with rhubarb, which was such a treat that weâll be rushing back soon. Lovely friendly vibe and hugely popular for good reason
