A Father’s Day Feast, Done Properly

This Father’s Day, we invite you to gather around the table and celebrate properly.

At Doost & Amici, we have created a menu that brings together the bold, comforting flavours of Persia with the warmth and generosity of Italian dining. Think grilled meats, slow-cooked stews, fresh bread, and dishes designed to be shared.

Whether you are planning a relaxed lunch or a long, enjoyable dinner, our Father’s Day menu is all about good food, good wine, and time together.e.

At Doost & Amici, we have been proud to celebrate Father’s Day here in Kennington for the past 26 years, welcoming neighbours, families, and familiar faces back year after year. For us, it has always been about community, shared meals, and making people feel at home.

The Story Behind Father’s Day — and Why It Matters to Us

Father’s Day began in the early 20th century as a way to honour fathers and father figures, inspired by the growing recognition of family celebrations such as Mother’s Day. What started as a personal tribute by a daughter to her father has grown into a global tradition.
Today, in the UK and around the world, it is a moment to pause, reflect, and show appreciation — not through grand gestures, but through time spent together. And that is something we deeply believe in.

At Doost & Amici, our cooking is rooted in family. Persian culture is built around the table, long meals, shared dishes, and recipes passed from one generation to the next. Italian dining carries the same spirit: generous, welcoming, and full of life.

For us, Father’s Day is not just a date on the calendar. It is a continuation of what we do every day, bringing people together through food.

Different dates, different traditions — but always the same sentiment: gratitude, love, and togetherness.

Father’s Day should feel generous, relaxed, and full of flavour.

Our specially prepared set menu brings together some of our most loved dishes — from comforting starters to grilled kebabs, saffron chicken, and slow-cooked specialities rich with herbs, spice, and depth.

For those looking to treat Dad, we also offer premium options, carefully selected wines, and a few indulgent touches to make the occasion feel just right.
