Taste of Kerman...

You can almost find any food that is served in other cities of Iran. There are many restaurants ( both fast food and traditional) around the city and notably on Jomhuri Blv. Drinking alcohol is illegal, and if seen by police may be met with punishment, though available on the black market. Iran is generally a safe country. It is advised however, that being an obvious tourist may attract some unwanted attention from interested Iranians, but do not be alarmed or react negatively. Standard advice to keep your bag secured and safe, and to leave personal and valuable belongings in your hotel room or hotel safe should be regarded. Iranians are generally peaceful, hospitable people, but it is advised to act with caution when walk in the streets alone late at night or when approached by strangers to the same degree that you would in your native country.
