Mess Hall's Persian New Year Dinner
The Persian New Year (called Nowruz or Norooz) is a multiday celebration of new life and good luck, which annually falls on the spring equinox. Join Mess Hall and restauranteur Saied Azali (Convivial, Mintwood Place) for a 4-course dinner & beverage pairing in celebration of Nowruz, and to ring in the Spring!
The menu, prepared by Chef Keyvan Djavan, will feature classic, sumptuous Iranian flavors (think saffron, rose water & pistachio), with a modern twist. Ben Alt of Reliable Tavern will pair each course with interesting wines and creative cocktails.
