If you're looking for a truly impressive Iranian feast, when it comes to both opulent interiors and delicious signature dishes, then Enigma at the Palazzo Versace Dubai on the Jaddaf Waterfront should be top of your list.

Chef Mansour Memarian is in charge of the kitchens, and his award-winning reputation for elevating Persian cuisine is well deserved. The addition of live entertainment in the form of musicians, dancers and DJs adds a further theatrical element that ensures regulars keep returning.

Traditionalists will find everything from Iranian caviar to chopped salads, with filled bite-sized cones providing a new take on familiar flavours. Grilled kebabs and kofte, with the freshest of herbs, and piping hot bread will satiate every appetite.

Stews are another speciality with pomegranate-infused chicken confit and a celeriac saffron lamb ragout particular stand-outs. Up the ante by going all out and ordering the Golden Menu Journey, which sees a series of stalwarts topped off with 24kt gold.

End your evening lingering over glasses of tea, as you indulge in cardamom almond cake, huge fruit platters and ice-cream-topped glass noodle faludeh.
