Ahmed learned to make Egyptian Feteer as a child in his family's restaurant in Alexandria and has brought those traditions with him to Steinway Street in Queens. His love and passion for the dish are evident from the moment you walk through the doors at @Mum.Feteer Originating in Ancient Egypt thousands of years ago, Feteer is a dish steeped in tradition that predates modern pizza (thought to have been created between the 16th and 18th centuries) by millennia. Check out Ahmed's restaurant in Astoria: 📍Mum Feteer 25-48 Steinway St, Queens, NY 11103

Omar’s love and pride for The Bronx was clear from the second we walked into @seisvecinos . A son of Ecuadorian and Honduran immigrants, he grew up eating Central American cuisine throughout his childhood spent in the Soundview area. When his cousin Jennifer approached him with the idea of opening a restaurant with a focus on Honduran cuisine, he jumped at the opportunity to be involved. He told us : “I’m just extremely grateful” for Seis Vecinos Restaurant. “I wouldn’t be as close as I am with my family, I wouldn’t be the person I am today, I wouldn’t know this much about my own culture, my own cuisine” without it. Check out Seis Vecinos: 📍Seis Vecinos 640 Prospect Ave, Bronx, NY 10455

In NYC’s Chinatown, Fong On has been a neighborhood institution for over 90 years. Paul Eng, the third-generation owner of Fong On, is continuing the legacy. Born in the city, he grew up to be a rock musician playing CBGB’s to commercial photographer for more than a decade in Moscow. Nostalgia and love for his family’s recipes inspired Paul to reopen Fong On, with the help of his wife, to preserve the legacy and bring it forward for his kids.

I was introduced to Jimmy’s by @jbrancaccio of @brancaccios_food_shop which is arguably my favorite sandwich house in NYC. When I asked Joe about his go-to spot, he didn’t hesitate: “Jimmy’s is the Charlie Parker of sandwich joints. And the rest of us are just trying to be Charlie Parker.” ...that’s a bar. Yo, walking into @jimmysfamousheros, I found the owner, Victor, on his hands and knees scrubbing the floor. Now 62, he has worked at Jimmy’s since he was 15, eventually taking over from the original owners, Jimmy and Margaret. From chef to janitor, he tackles every role with equal parts pride and passion, which allows this Sheepshead Bay cornerstone to continue its legacy since the 1940s. In a world where shortcuts are common, Victor’s dedication to quality and his love for the community are why this sandwich joint has endured. #sandwich #brooklyn

Yo, on Mondays, I make a point to consume less, a kind of self-imposed austerity that often leaves me reminiscing ‘bout the exquisite plates of nourishment I’ve had the pleasure to devour recently. Take, for instance, the sizzling sisig at @pigandkhao a testament to the brilliance of Filipino cuisine. Peace and blessings to the Filipino 🇵🇭 massive for that culinary knockout 🥊 Aight, peace and blessings 🤜🏼🤛🏼
