Zaffron was recommended to me as a good source of Iranian food. I’ve never had Iranian food, so that was enough for me. Later, I found it also reviewed well in Toronto Life.
As we debated whether to order it, the waiter was kind enough to provide us a sample of the Yogurt Soda. I was thankful; it tastes appropriate for a salad. It’s sour, not sweet at all. Later on our way out, though, we noticed other tables had pitchers of it. An acquired taste I guess.
The Zaffron bread was excellent: toasted and crispy, with lots of sesame seeds. It came with a “dip”, feta cheese and walnuts. Personally, I preferred it plain; it reminded me of naan that way (i.e. good by itself). I’m missing a picture of the bread because by the time I thought to take one, it was half gone!
