The Office Manager Panic Button Story 🔥

This happens all the time. An office manager calls, voice shaking, whisper-yelling:

“We forgot lunch… we have 20 people… can you help us?!”

My father and I share a quick look. The “we got this” look.

Chicken kebabs hit the grill. Rice gets fluffed. Fresh salad chopped, hummus scooped—perfectly creamy and ready to impress. In under 60 minutes, we have a full Middle Eastern feast headed your way. The office hero gets their cape back, and no one knows how close lunchtime came to disaster.

Why Middle Eastern Food Saves the Day

✅ It travels flawlessly

Grilled kebabs, saffron rice, warm pita, hummus, garlic sauces… our food was born to travel. Flavors stay bold. Texture stays perfect.

✅ Minimal prep, massive flavor

We prep throughout the day. That means no long waits, no complicated finishing steps. You call. We assemble. You feast.

✅ Everyone LOVES it

Vegetarians? Covered. Gluten-free? Easy. Dairy-free? No problem.
Middle Eastern cuisine is one of the most diet-friendly catering options in Boston.

Perfect For Every Boston Office

We support:

  • Pharmaceutical lunch-and-learns
  • Tech company “please don’t quit us” meals
  • University department celebrations
  • Client presentations where food needs to impress
  • Last-minute lunches when someone 🫣 forgot to order

(We won’t tell anyone.)

We Know Boston. We Feed Boston.

We’ve been a family-run Middle Eastern restaurant for nearly 30 years. My father still hand-skewers kebabs every morning. We take pride in showing up for this city, especially when timing gets tight.

Short Notice? Challenge Accepted.
