A review by bkish
The Last Days of Café Leila by Donia Bijan

4.0

I loved this book. It just was so human all of it. The author is a chef and she had famous restaurant in Palo Alto which is now closed. However the cuisine was french and this book really delves into displays iranian or persian cuisine. Its such a rich book of love and death and family and immigrants and parents and the danger of extreme politics leading to murders. Its a tale of people trying to find their path their way.
She is a good writer good not great...
She is telling somewhat of her own story
