Darya Persian Restaurant with Susann, Timothy, and Lillian

Friday Jan. 8
After Holt's talk and Barbara's AIA Council meeting, Lillian and Timothy guided (and drove) us out to Darya, apparently Orange County's best Persian restaurant.
We started with an unknown chardonnay and continued to an unknown red - both okay, considering that the Dariush Persian wine was $119 a bottle.
Appetizers of dolemeh (dolmades) and boraneh eggplant dip, on a playing-card pack of thin breads.
Mains: Baghali Polo (basmati rice mixed with dill and lima beans, with savory tender lamb-shank and broth to pour on it). And Fesenjon (chicken with fried walnut/pomegranate sauce on Basmati rice).
