Our Services
At Dastahn, every offering carries a story — in flavor, texture, and the way it's served. We work from Persian culinary traditions with a modern hand, shaped by what California grows and what San Francisco eats. Call it Persian-Californian.
Private Chef
Intimate dinners, curated events, and immersive gatherings designed around your story. Whether it’s a multi-course Persian-inspired tasting menu or a family-style feast with regional twists, we bring the heart of hospitality to every table.
Pop-Ups
Dastahn’s pop-ups are more than meals — they are sensorial experiences. Past events like Black Limon and Sistan Baluchestan Bazar, blur the line between art, food, and narrative.
Classes
From jam-making and Persian rice rituals to bread baking and storytelling through food — our workshops invite people to learn, share, and connect.
Let’s Create a Story Together
Whether you’re looking for a private chef, a collaborative event, or a jar that captures the taste of a place — Dastahn is where your story begins.

Client Reviews
“We hired Dastahn to cater our event for 120 people during the holidays. Not only was the food fantastic and flavorful, they helped us find the right menu items to support all the dietary needs of our guests while still making it delicious. We look forward to working with them again in the future and highly recommend you hire them too!”
“Working with Dastahn for ARTogether’s end-of-year fundraising event was such a beautiful experience. From the initial menu planning to the final clean-up, Shabnam brought thoughtfulness, creativity, and deep care to every detail. The food was delicious and carried warmth and intention that resonated with our community. Many of our guests commented on how special and memorable the meal felt.
What stood out most was the feeling behind the service: Shabanm was calm, generous, and attentive. We are truly grateful for the collaboration and would gladly work together again.”
"Dastahn catered a buffet breakfast for 50 people for me. Shabnam was innovative with the menu and very creative with the presentation of the meal. She was responsive to my requests and always prompt on the follow through. It was a pleasure to work with her and I look forward to engaging Dastahn for other events in the future."
