She beams with so much love and enthusiasm for her country, culture and its cuisine. She has a beautiful kitchen studio set in the most tranquil garden a few kilometers outside of Shiraz ( just a text ride away). The tranquil setting really amplifies the experience as she takes you on a journey through Persian cuisine.
