I recently tried a new Persian restaurant called Shalizaar located on El Camino in Belmont. I remember watching for many months as the carpenters renovated what was previously Two Guys From Italy and something else before (and maybe after that). My friend and I ordered the Shalizaar Special for Two, so we could try a combination of three kabobs, joojeh (hen), barreh (lamb filet), and koobideh (ground beef) served with rice and tomatoes. Delicious!

We were both able to bring home a full meal, which was eaten by my son for his late night snack that night. Check out Shalizaar! The atmosphere is delightful and the food… yummy! I’ll be going back.
