The flavours of Persian cooking – grilled kebab, rice, sumac and saffron – as street food at Nørrebrogade 63.

Persian food and Iranian food are two names for the same cuisine. It is known for meat from the grill, fluffy rice and fresh, tangy flavours. Sumac is the dark red, tangy spice sprinkled over kebab and onions. Saffron gives the rice its colour and aroma. And one of the most popular kebab dishes in Iran is kubideh (koobideh): seasoned minced meat, shaped on wide skewers and grilled.
At Kubideh we have taken those flavours to the street. You get kubideh kebab in a roll or as a platter with rice, sumac, saffron, yoghurt dressing and red cabbage salad with pickles – Persian street food to eat in hand or at one of our tables.
If you are looking for Middle Eastern food in Copenhagen, you probably already know falafel, hummus and halloumi. We have those too: crispy falafel and grilled halloumi in rolls and platters – and hummus on the side. The difference is the Persian touch: sumac, saffron, rice and kebab from the grill.
All our meat is halal, and everything with falafel or halloumi is vegetarian.
Good to know
Yes. Persia is the historical name for Iran, so Persian food and Iranian food are two names for the same cuisine.
Kubideh (also spelled koobideh) comes from the Persian word for pounding: the meat was traditionally pounded before it was shaped on the skewer. Today it is the name of a classic Persian kebab of seasoned minced meat, grilled on wide skewers.
That is up to you. You can add chilli to your dish, and we also have an extra hot dip on the side.
Both. We have about 10 seats at Nørrebrogade 63, and you can take your food away or order online and pick it up.
