So my little one is finally giving me a nap. He is unfortunately creeping into his brother’s realm – he gave up the nap at 14 months and would only sleep seven-eight hours a night – not straight through though – oh we will have none of that. It was sidewalk chalk-time out back at two in the morning. I think we got past sixty different shapes: bell, ampersand, rectangular prism . . .
Enough of that: So I took my Valentine to Shamshiri in Glendale (122 W Stocker St Glendale, CA 818.246.9541) on Tuesday. We know the owners; our boys are in the same school. My bride had the Chicken Kabob and I had the Bareh (lamb) Kabob (pictured). It was a treat. The meals here are so tasty and fill you up . . . and they are under $10. It is such a great place for lunch. A quite mellow setting where my one year old sampled the rice, pita and humus . . . he liked it.
When we want a Persian dinner, and I want to devour their chicken salad, we go to their restaurant out in Thousand Oaks, Darband Grill (868 E Thousand Oaks Blvd, Thousand Oaks, CA 91360 ( 805) 449-1323). It’s pretty close to the Civic Arts Plaza, so if you are going to see a performance, don’t forget about the tasty meals down T. O. Boulevard. They have belly-dancers on the weekend. My ten year old only wants to go when it is belly-dancing time . . . so he can dance!
Thank you Farhad and Rossana for the great food and wonderful service.
