Rustic wooden beams, glazed tiles and a lively, friendly atmosphere all set the scene for the delicious Gilan-region food served at one of Tehran's most popular restaurants. Sample the mix of dips and the deep fried zander, a type of fish, or go for either the duck or chicken fesenjan (a dish with a rich nut and pomegranate sauce).
