St. Patrick’s Day, the anniversary of the unification of Italy, and the Iranian New Year, Nowruz, all fall within a span of a few days this month. I’m neither Irish, Italian, nor Iranian, but I don’t mind donning a “Feed me! I’m hungry” t-shirt if necessary.

Readers probably already have favorite Irish pubs and Italian joints. If you have never tried Persian food and want to join in on the festivities, I recommend sampling Iranian food at Kabob Bazaar’s “New Year’s All Day Buffet” in Clarendon. The buffet is open from 1:00 pm to 9:00 pm on Sunday, March 20 and will run you $16.95. The restaurant will also host a New Year’s lunch buffet on Monday, March 21 from 11:00 am to 3:30 pm for just $13.95.
