Thanks to Phil for the reminder: “DC folks: we tried Foodhini and it’s REALLY good. Got the chicken gormeh and bolani from the Afghan menu. See for yourself!”
Check out the menus here.

For those not familiar with Foodhini:
“Foodhini was founded on the idea that food can be used to create new opportunities for our immigrant and refugee communities, and also satisfy the appetites of hungry foodies in search of authentic multicultural meals.
Many immigrant & refugee communities face financial, educational, and cultural barriers that can limit their access to sustainable living wage jobs. By providing a platform for communities of diaspora to use their existing culinary skills to prepare and sell their delicious home-style cultural cuisines, Foodhini empowers these communities to bypass those barriers and create new opportunities.
These individuals possess talents that have been developed for years in their homes, and now we are bringing their talents and dishes directly to you. We believe their talents deserve real compensation and our goal is to provide livable wages to all of our chefs. More than that, we strive to create a community for our team members to develop economic mobility, and also build new relationships with each other and beyond.
Foodhini covers all the upfront costs, enabling chefs to just focus on what they do best, cook incredible meals for you. Our chefs and kitchen team prepare meals in Foodhini’s Certified Commercial Kitchen, where we uphold the highest of standards in food safety and providing the highest quality meal for every customer.
As we look forward, there is one thing that remains constant for us. It’s the people behind the food, that make a meal great.”
