Here's something a little bit different: Iranian restaurant Nutshell's latest seasonal feast box is a celebration of Nowruz — the Persian New Year, which falls on the spring equinox. Like Easter, Nowruz celebrates rebirth and renewal, which we reckon earns this one a spot on our list. Nutshell's Nowruz Feast Box includes pan-fried Chalk Stream river trout, saffron tahchin, and an Iranian baghlava for dessert.
Each feast box costs £70 (serves two). Delivers nationwide. Order here.
