i love claudia roden's books: new book of middle eastern food & arabesque. arabesque is less about persian food, but in the same vein.
here's a link to some of her recipes:

GinaPet - Hit the Persian Room in Scottsdale. Good stuff.

Cafe Natasha's Kabob International in St. Louis: A lovely family runs it and there are lots of vegetarian options, for those who are interested in that. (Plus stories from the father of the family, who loves to discuss the food.)

If you're ever in Houston, try Kasra on Westheimer. They have an incredible garlic hummus that's the best I've ever had, with fresh, homemade pita. The khoresh bademjan is very good- lamb with roasted eggplant and sour grapes. Also the chicken fesenjan- chicken in a pomegranate-nut sauce, and the flavored rices (ie, sour cherry rice) are delicious.
