Business Details

Kushari and its cousin Mujadara originate from Egypt and the Fertile Crescent and date back to the 1800s when, at the end of each month, families would cook a mix of the staples left in their pantries. It is a nutritious, protein rich combination of simple pantry staples: spiced lentils and rice, combined with chickpeas and small pasta, all smothered in a tomato sauce that’s been spiked with vinegar topped with savory, crispy thin fried onion rings. We serve numerous variations of Kushari: spicy or mild, vegetarian or with pesto fish or butter chicken.
