Cafe-Restaurant Soufi

Iran


Currently the most popular restaurant in Nahar Khoran, Soufi looks very alluring from the road and the front-balcony tables with wrought-iron chairs are a pleasant place to sip a decent real coffee (IR85,000 to IR105,000), but the main dining hall seems a bit too crushed to really warrant the somewhat elevated prices.
