Founded by Ethiopian refugee and trained chef Meymuna Hussein-Cattan, this Michelin-recognized gem transforms global indigenous recipes into a celebration of migration and belonging. Each month, a guest chef—many themselves refugees or immigrants—takes over the kitchen to highlight their home cuisine, creating an ever-rotating menu that ranges from Somali rice bowls to Haitian fried goat, all while supporting displaced communities. The airy Hollywood space doubles as a coworking café by day and cultural hub by night, hosting everything from Ethiopian jazz nights to Venezuelan brunches, making it as much a gathering place for connection as it is a destination for consistently delicious, beautifully prepared food.
Easygoing eatery featuring monthly menus of global cuisine in a chic environment.
