When I dare to blow the whistle, I find out that EVEN YOU don't dare to hear it. This is my daily log for this year in which I will try to flash back to my past and create a book as my biography. Being Iranian in this century means there is a lot of stories behind you . It looks these days there will be a lot ahead also.
O.K what is a dallak? a worker in a Hammam. what is a Hammam? a public bath in Iran. In America I can not find a Dallak.They used to give us a massage and clean us. First with a kiseh(lofa) and we used to shed the old skin with every bath. They used sefidab,click here to see what is sefidab. then they would do soap and warm water , wash our hair and in women public bath gossip or find a suitor. I miss dallaks a lot. Here is a men bath and a man dallak, looks like chiropractor, and here is hammame vakil in Shiraz. I miss a lot of things about Iran and that is one of them...

CANADA, (the orange version,) would have been much better & actually MEECHASBBBEEEDD much nicer after a HAMOM e OMOMEE (with number)!!!
I remember way back then we were constantly eating. In Hamom, after football, before football (even during football with sun flower seeds), Sobhaneh, 10 o'clack, Nahar, Falakeh, Assrooneh, Falakeh, Kolbeh Khorak, Sar e Pool, Bowling e ABDO, difeerrent Chelokabaeess, Sham...............
Those were the days man!!!
In hammoms we were having ANAR & then canada e orange ya Fanta KHONAK. On the way back to the house, Kolbeh Khorak (all sorts of sandwiches, specially Oloveh/ Kalbas, or......), then " Balal, Jeegar, Bastanee, Falodeh, Shereeny Tazeh at Falakeh ", & then Tokhmeh & Ajeel was NEVER ending.
These were nothing we had 5 MEALS a day, completely. I used to Roozeh (actually Navid & I mostly) & at Eftar there were 12 people present with minimally three differrent kind of POLO & Khoresh, Salads, Noon Chaee Panneer (Onam NONE DAGH, HALA YA SANGAG YA BARBAREE,,,,,, Always some kind of Khorak e Morgh ya Goosht & almost always CHELOKABAB). Well friends we had FUN.
AYE BABA AAJABB DOORRANNEE Bood!!! which included Hammomm e Omomee!!! Farhad
