Our story

A tribute to tradition and good, wholesome cooking

Avi learned to cook in his mother's and grandmother's kitchens: his father's Greek dishes, passed down for over 600 years, and the Middle Eastern meals of his mother's family from Tiberias. Fishing in the Mediterranean, picking mangos by the Sea of Galilee and working the family farm shaped how he cooks today.

PITA 22 is his way of sharing that table with San Diego, with family and friends.
