Samboosa Yemenia are deep fried pastries filled with seasoned ground beef, green chilies, served with avocado sa7waq.

“A through line in my work, beyond its autobiographical nature, is identity itself. The mere act of presenting my image becomes a form of activism - one that crosses cultural boundaries and confronts those who resist Yemeni women. This resistance often comes from within my own Arab community. I sit with these challenges, even as the world feels like it’s crumbling around me, questioning whether my coping mechanisms are enough to soothe the anxiety that comes with simply existing.

I continue to carry my culture - in my walk, in my being, and in the roots of my hair - proudly, without fear or shame.” - Anysa

Only two days left to try Anysa’s menu. Come try it today and tomorrow!

“This menu is a love letter to my Yemeni heritage
— sharing the dishes I grew up with in a city that
gave me a place to belong.” - Anysa

Shafoot is traditionally made with Yemeni lahoh bread, and our rendition highlights the influences and cultural exchange between Yemen and Ethiopia by using Ethiopian injera, a spongy, large flatbread made with teff, a tiny, nutrient-dense, ancient grain native to Ethiopia and Eritrea.

The shafoot is four layers of injera, with a whole fat buttermilk blend of cilantro, garlic, green thai chili, scallion, tomato, lemon juice, cumin, and coriander. This mixture is layered between the injera. This is chilled overnight.

It’s sliced and drenched in the cilantro buttermilk sauce when plated. Garnished with chopped romaine, cherry tomato, and pomegranate seeds.

Shafoot is a layered dish of bread, buttermilk, and herbs served cold.

Try this dish and Anysa’s full menu this week for dine or take-out.
