Special herbed rice with baked trout, herb frittata and homemade desserts!

Join me for a traditional Persian New Year dinner to celebrate the first day of spring. I will be serving a delicious four-course meal by my fireplace where each course will be a different Persian dish with my own modern touch and presentation of the food.

I will start with two courses of appetizers, which will include the Persian staple dish Kookoo Sabzi (Herb Frittata). This will be followed by the main course, baked trout with special herbed rice and Persian kimchi. The fourth course will be two desserts, including a home-made Persian ice cream and Faloodeh. I will wrap up the meal with tea, coffee and a mocktail.

Check out the Menu section for a more detailed description of each course.

Marjan's food is very elegant. The herb-stuffed fish was noticeably fresh and healthy, and her rice dish the most unique. All with delightfully subtle and pronounced flavors everywhere. The homemade saffron ice cream with pistachio was A-MAZING. I left feeling something like that of a born-again Persian. I now love everything Persian. What a fun night!

Great company, beautiful presentation of the food, delicious meal.I did the tasting for this meal before Marjan joined Cozymeal and I told myself that I would try to book the meal every time she offers it. This was my second time already and I will try to make it again next time.

This was my first time using CozyMeal. My initial hesitation was quickly dismantled by Marjan's warm and friendly invitation to come in. She's truly a great host. We sat down & I got to meet several other cozy mealers. We chatted about the Bay Area and the ever-beautiful San Francisco, and then the first dish was presented to us. I'm an Iranian and I can honestly say I've never seen such a beautiful Persian appetizer in my life. Persian food doesn't usually look this great (though it tastes amazing). The taste was impeccable and only outdone by the main dish and dessert. I stayed longer than I thought because the entire group was having such a great time talking, joking, and laughing. In short, tasty foods, warm atmosphere, great host. I look forward to going back to Marjan's!
