EXPERIENCE GLOBAL COMFORT FOOD, AT YOUR NEXT CATERED EVENT

Flavors From Afar is an award-winning East Hollywood social enterprise with a diverse rotating menu curated by talented refugee chefs, which offers customers an ever-changing array of authentic and high-quality dishes.

We started with the idea that making and sharing food is a universal gesture that transcends cultural boundaries and speaks a language of love that is understood by all, but Flavors From Afar is more than food; it’s a testament to the power of community, compassion, and the desire to make a positive impact.

ROTATING MENU

Our popularity began with our rotating menu! Each month, our restaurant would host a guest refugee chef who designs an authentic menu highlighting traditional dishes from their native country.

While we renovate our space in East Hollywood, please consider us for your next catering needs.

EMPOWERING REFUGEE CHEFS

As a social enterprise affiliated with the Tiyya Foundation, a nonprofit committed to supporting refugees and asylum seekers, a portion of our proceeds are allocated to empower and uplift those in need, creating a meaningful impact one meal at a time.
