Idea: Conflict Kitchen
It seems that there’s a unique restaurant business idea inside of every geopolitical crisis. Conflict Kitchen is a take-out restaurant that only serves cuisine from countries that the United States is in conflict with.
The food is served out of a take-out style storefront, which will rotate identities every 4 months to highlight another country. Each Conflict Kitchen iteration will be augmented by events, performances, and discussion about the the culture, politics, and issues at stake with each county we focus on.
Kubideh Kitchen is an Iranian take-out restaurant that serves kubideh in freshly baked barbari bread with onion, mint, and basil. Developed in collaboration with members of the Pittsburgh Iranian community, the sandwich is packaged in a custom-designed wrapper that includes interviews with Iranians both in Pittsburgh and Iran on subjects ranging from Iranian food and poetry to the current political turmoil.

I don’t know if it is their intent but it seems to me that by serving food from countries that we are in conflict with they are doing more than stand out above the competition… they’re showing people the benefits of a culture that is different from their own, giving them something to admire that some people might have looked down upon because of all the negative press those countries receive. I say bravo to them. This is an interesting restaurant idea that I hope will stick around for a while.
