cute cafe








I found this cute little cafe in Darakeh, Tehran. It's called cafe maahi ghermez. They serve a variety of "sharbats" (e.g., "sharbat e aragh e bidmeshk", etc.) and "chaays". The cafe is nicely decorated.

food

















Persian food: Joojeh-Kabab, Kabab (at Shater-Abbas restaurant), Dizi (in Darakeh), Ash-e Torsh (Zanjan), Jaghoor-Baghoor (Zanjan), Shishlik (Shandiz, Mashad)

Hmmm... I feel hungry after posting these pictures!
