Ali's wife Amina, also from Lebanon, came up with the recipes for our prepared foods, which she makes daily.

Here we share the deets. Try to make them at home, and know that you can always return to East Village Organic for "the real deal." 😉

Ali is a smart -- and lucky man -- to bring Amina into his (and EVO's) world. Here are the two of them hanging near the GW.

A true New York, American success story.
