The dishes from the writeups

• Duck fessenjoon

  “the kitchen turns out such deeply flavorful classic stews as pomegranate-laced duck fessenjoon and beef with dried lime”

• Persian cucumber salad

  “Take, for instance, the Persian cucumber salad, an assemblage of pomegranate, pistachio, feta, and mint that comes together in a symphony of loveliness.”

• Grilled rockfish

  “the grilled rockfish with sour-orange-and-parsley beurre blanc is a stunning fusion of French and Iranian influences”

• Chenjeh kabob

  “The chenjeh kabob, a cooked-to-order tenderloin that glows with earthy flavor and leaks juice like a broken faucet, is a perfect example of Persian saffron and skewers.”
