Intruiguingly, the author noted that Qom is a drearly place, relieved only by the smell of pistachio brittle. Does anyone know of a source for this delicacy in NY? I am a complete pistachio fanatic, and this mention obliterated much of the other details of the disputes between the "Youns" and the "Yats."

Any place where they have 4 kinds of homemade Halvah sounds like a promising beginning of the quest. Good luck and let us know. k Thu Aug 12 11:47:54 -0700 1999 1248208 0 keith koenigsberg 2 1248212 search for "pistachio brittle" on hotbot or any browser and there's no shortage of recipes and mail-order sources.
