Baba's Hummus House & Mana'eesh Bakery

At the University of Minnesota, Local Palestinian Restaurants Helped Nourish a Movement | Eater Twin Cities

"I watched trays from Baba’s Hummus House—wrapped falafel sandwiches in sunny yellow-and-white checkered paper—become one of the quickest hits at the encampment; a steady line formed and the falafel didn’t last long. Co-founders Rana Kamal and her brother Khalid Ansari said they’ve been in “complete awe” of the student organizers, and described Baba’s as a love letter to their Palestinian roots and a bridge between their American and Arab identities, noting that sharing hummus and meals has allowed both Palestinians and Israelis to connect in their cafe." - Justine Jones
