Well boys and girls its been ages since the last one! I thought it was time for another. In keeping with tradition here is another middle eastern restaurant. It is Persian however it also serves up Italian.
Zaffron
Finally, a restaurant that solves that age-old dilemma: Italian or Persian? Schizophrenia aside, Zaffron manages to shine at both cuisines. Inside, a California-style decor: stucco walls, autumn colours and tile floors. Fresh from the wood oven, Iranian flatbread ($4) is sprinkled with sesame seeds; it proves the perfect medium for smoky eggplant purée ($6.95) with lashings of goat yogurt cheese and deep-fried mint. Fusilli Saraceno ($13.95) confirms Italian expertise, with a creamy tomato sauce teaming up with grilled chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, mushrooms, and onions red and green. Chefs charbroil skewer upon peerless skewer of lamb, tenderloin, sirloin and saffron- and lemon-marinated chicken. Zaffron kebab ($18) is tender, juicy and smoky; each grain of accompanying basmati rice is perfectly separate, moist and steamy hot; a shake of sumac adds lovely sour notes. Finish with glass mugs of Persian tea ($2.25) and a plate of honey-heavy treats ($3.95). The wine list represents Italy well, but most (Iranian) patrons drink a milky-white yogurt soda. Takeout and delivery available.

Again like always its open to anyone and everyone. We had a pretty good turn out the last time when we did Morrocan so let's have a good go at it this time too.
There is ample parking here, but if anybody needs a ride from Finch subway station thats no problem, just let me know in advance.
Cheers hope to see some of the old gaurd out and some new faces!! Post post so I can make reservations somewhat in advance!
