A favourite dish here is the Guisavah. Two eggs are served in your choice of Sunnyside up or scrambled, topped with buttered dates. Nigella seeds and walnuts are added for a bit of a crunch. The dried apricots give the dish some sweetness and the creaminess of the feta cheese brings the dish together.

This dish is served with toasted Barbary bread and a Persian chai tea on the side. This is a flavourful meal to start the day with.

But for a heartier meal why not try the Dizi. This is a stew made with lamb. The chickpeas give it a nutty flavour while the white beans are tender. The savoury potatoes and the sweet tomatoes make a great combination. The onions are sharp and the spices enhance the flavours of the dish. This is a 2-course meal served with bread and pickles.
