Akbar Mashadi ice cream
by John Carpenter III PhD (not verified) on Sun Aug 03, 2008 05:16 PM PDTNo one ever notices that "Akbar Mashadi" is the name of the ice cream. It was named such because akbar is an arabic word and Mashad is the city where the 8th Shia Imam is buried. The 8th Shia Imam was named Imam Ali Reza. It is customary to send salutations to the prophet Mohammad and his family after eating Akbar Mashadi ice cream. The same is true after eating a good chelo kabob.
The praise in arabic is, "Allah homa-saleh Ala Mohammad va aleh mohammad".
The best Akbar Mashadi ice cream can be purchased in northern tehran. I advise everyone to take a flight there to get some good ice cream.
Akbar mashti`s Milk Ice Cream
by Faribors Mmaleknasri M.D. (not verified) on Sun Aug 03, 2008 02:12 PM PDTIn sunmmerholidays we used to start at early evening for akbar mashti`s Ice shop on foot. As we got there we could drink cool water as we waited for ice. For me is that ice cream, up to this time, the best best Milk Ice cream I have ever eaten. The guests hall was very larg. After we were finished we startet to leave. As we had reached the exit the waiter which had served us said so laud as it was hearable in that far distance the prise we had to pay for our ice on akbar mashti personaly, who sat in the Enterance/Exist door. It was very nice for us to be handled in such a way. So nice that sometimes we meant we go to akbar masshti just because of the way he serves ice and collects and not only for tahe taste of his Milk Ice Cream. Greeting
heavenly
by mirzakhan (not verified) on Sat Aug 02, 2008 04:00 PM PDTThis (Persian) ice cream is heavenly. To love it is genetic. My kids (only toddler) love it after they eat the Chelo-Kabab). Trust me their mom could not cook anything Persian (OK she cann't cook at all!!), so it they like it, it is not by training...
