About Takht-e Tavoos
Takht-e Tavoos is a Persian brunch room on College Street near Dufferin, run by the team behind Pomegranate and decorated with Persian paintings, calligraphy and poetry. It serves home-style Iranian breakfast and stews such as dizi (abgoosht), kaleh joosh, haleem, zaban (beef tongue), mirza ghasemi and egg plates like the Safavid, with barbari bread, torshi, clotted cream and Persian tea. It opens only for weekend brunch and does not take reservations, so waits are common.
