“ What a little gem! This is why I love Sebastopol. We came in for lunch and we were greeted by the warm, friendly proprietor. She pointed us to the specials board and informed us that she also had a couple of Persian dishes for Persian New Year. We ordered those and a Tres Leches cake, all of which were delicious.
