I’m Ahmad. Like all people, I eat stuff. After bouncing around the world (Dubai, NYC) for nearly a decade, me + my fam are now back “home” in Chicago. After a couple of years in this beautiful, gargantuan city of ours, we‘re ditching the skyscrapers and moving back to our native southwest suburbs where we were raised.
What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hear ‘suburbs’?
Cookie-cutter, maybe?
Big-box stores, strip malls, and quiet subdivisions?
Nope, not these ‘burbs! At the intersection of more space and lower rent on the southside, lies a dope cacophony of cultural experiences. I’m talking bomb ass food! Falafel like back in the motherland, pierogis better than your granny’s, Mexican for days, a whole mess of fried goodness, and some legendary fast food + pizza.
I’m gonna eat a lot. I’m gonna take hella pictures of food and buildings. And I’m gonna document it all here.
Join me on this journey, y’all!
