- Owners Abdul Elenani and Ayat Masoud opened their restaurant Ayat serving up hearty Palestinian dishes that are large enough to feed a family. Ayat, who grew up in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, always dreamed of introducing her community to the traditional Palestinian dishes she ate within her home. While Middle Eastern street food flavors - such as shawarma, kebabs, falafel, and hummus - are popular in their neighborhood, some of the more traditional Palestinian and regional recipes she loves are less well known. The nostalgic recipes, which she learned from her mom, include dishes like mansaf - made with lamb that is cooked in a fermented yogurt and served over saj bread and rice and garnished with almonds and parsley.

Thumbs up if you want to try mansaf
I eat it every Friday as. A Jordanian☺️
sounds good
Mansaf is 100% Jordanian
Thank you for this💚
Pls make an episode with Israeli food.
Thank you.
I just want to thank first we feast for this video and the awareness they are bringing to different cultures especially the Palestinian one. As a Palestinian it is very hard to see your culture being represented and especially in a very heartwarming way. thank you again for this I'm gonna go eat mansaf now
I actually went to law school with Ayat and it's so cool to see that she has a restaurant! Congrats Ayat!
You're a cool dude
Cap
Ma sha Allah ☺️
She’s gonna need an attorney. Nothing but a bunch of criminals.
Atleast can afford it.. you cant 🤣
Getting her mom's input on the food is key. Middle eastern moms have magic in their fingertips

Sooo true!
getting my mom's recipes involved converting "until it looks right" to actual measurements
Basically the mom code around the world.
@@dewhashish I thought my mom was the only one who did this😭😭
Her Mama's smile is so genuine and inviting. It reminds me of my Mom's smile. I would do anything to make her laugh and smile, simply because when she did, it lit up my whole universe to see her happy. Rip Mom, holidays are so hard without you.
Thank you for posting this, coming from a Palestinian I love seeing my culture being shared, the Palestinian culture is beautiful for what it truly is, not what people are making it out to be.
Mansaf is Jordanian
@@rorosami3707Mabrook
Learning about all these different cultures is what makes the world awesome. Really makes you appreciate how truly amazing this world is
This family is the American dream. Such a fascinating blend of American farmer, immigrant entrepreneur, and Levantine flavor! I applaud them!
Love how they raise their own livestock ❤️
뭐가 "나는 고기 공장 들 않믿어" 보다 더 레드필 이나?
Please do more ethnically oriented segments. I love foods from around the world.
True:)
th-cam.com/video/wdTcJGMGNZs/w-d-xo.html . . .
Yess!
What do u mean ethnically oriented segments lol u mean non white . Cause anything that is different than ur norm is ethnic
STFU and go try mansaf :D
@@ibrahimaskar7844 I have it sucks , it's bland
I didn't actually know the full reason behind the halal process, only that it involved all the blood going out. Now i know and have even more respect. Would love to try this food one day
It doesn't sound like something that could be done on an industralised scale either, so it'll probably be higher quality meat.
Halal meat is basically predicated on mercy- to reduce the animals suffering. The knife has to be sharp and cut very quickly. The animal can't even see the knife or the blood of other animals before its death, bc it'll get scared and then its not halal. An animal that is too young, sick is not halal. If someone like today in the factories, abuses an animal that animal is not considered halal. The animal must be treated well during its life. The reason you say Allah's name is bc, it's like taking permission from him to kill this animal, bc it's for the purpose of consumption.
This is a good video that explains it better.
m.th-cam.com/video/Nc6VpMPsDmk/w-d-xo.html
That's why I don't think halal can ever be industrialised. Bc the conditions alone will render it haram.
@@HassanAli-rb5hq wow, that's really beautiful. Thank you for sharing that link!
@@Jess38044 no problem. Halal and kosher- fun fact Muslims r also allowed to eat kosher bc Jews r considered the people of the book. Christians too but I think there's has been lost to time- from what I know. But anyways their both portrayed by the media to be barbaric and so backwards. And we're like no those r actually way better than the industrialised process
@@HassanAli-rb5hq Does this mean lamb cannot be halal, because it's a young animal? I thought lamb was common in Middle-Eastern dishes.
I've got friends from Jordan and "come come, eat eat" immediately made me think of them. Even if it was just coffee, you'd be made a cup before you could respond.
That's the same in Pakistan, we'll drag you in if your a guest and offer you food right away
It's the same with Slavic people, you'll never leave our house hungry or thirsty...it's deeply rooted and a tradition to be proud of and protect.
Ah yes 😂 my mom always asks me if I want more chicken pieces, or rice or wtv, and sure enough its all on my plate before I even answer
This reminds me alot of the Italian side of my family, you gather in a big group with a shared dish, you eat you share stories and you dance and sing,
Palestinian culture and people are beautiful and vibrant and kind.
I'm Macedonian, her mom reminds me of my grandmother. All about family, cooking and eating! Super cute
What an absolutely beautiful video, this video is humanistic and personal and a great exposure of the Palestinian cuisine and identity ❤🇵🇸
Being Palestinian, we are very welcoming. A lot of my buddies would come over and be surprised and overwhelmed by how hospitable my family is. We make sure your fed, warm, comfortable. My family and most middle eastern families are very welcoming and making sure our guests are comfortable and happy, not what the media portrays. Bless all 🙏🏼
This is beautiful! Mom is filled with so much joy and spirit ❤ this whole video fills my heart. These have been such heartbreaking times, but finding bits of Palestinian music, food, and culture even just through my screen has been so impactful.
May allah bless this Palestinian family and restaurant. The story behind their restaurant is beautiful. Mashallah
I Agree:)

i ain't even religious but i hope they live happy healthy lives while sharing their traditions with others
Beautiful story, beautiful people and culture. I'm taking a ride to Bay Ridge to eat there, soon!
i used to eat this dish when I lived in Amman. Brings back great memories
I love everything about this video, all power to you guys.
LOVE THIS PLACE! Palestinian food is amazing. Such nice people too
I cannot wait to go to this restaurant! I really hope the mom is there too. I feel like a hug from her would feel amazing!
What a heartwarming and beautiful story. So many different facets of your lives here, the farming, the dancing, the incredible food!
This was so informative and entertaining! Good luck on all your endeavors!

Many years ago my new Palestinian friends taught me their delicious cuisine. Decades on, I still make dozens of traditional dishes. It was so nice to learn this lovely family's story.
I really enjoy this show. The focus on humanity is really beautiful.
Wow what an amazing production by First We Feast! Thanks for giving Ayat and Abdulenani the proper showcase they deserve
My dads from Jerusalem and made me Mansuf just last week. Growing up he would make this food all the time! Its so amazing
This is amazing! Thank you for showcasing them and telling their story.
Palestine culture is so rich and vibrant with amazing flavours..Need more of this
I do pray from the deepest of my heart that Palestine will be free and all Palestinians in the diaspora like Ayat will be able to return home.
this makes me so nostalgic :) memories of being in palestine and jordan to visit my family and eating all of these! thankfully my dad still makes them regularly
So excellent that you did an episode about Palestinian food. That is awesome, peeps. The Palestinians surely deserve some attention, regardless of what the zionist crowd thinks. Good on you all!
Huge props to the First We Feast channel for this video! 🥰
Thank you for this episode! Love learning about Palestinian meals! Wishing Abdul and Ayat all the best with their restaurant. If I'm ever in NYC I will for sure stop by.
I so wish I could come dine here. Love from Brighton, England!
I love Jordanian 🇯🇴 Mansaf and it’s always good to see people appreciate it. Jordanians will always support the freedom of Palestine 🇵🇸
thank you first we feast for this one, it really feels nice seeing your culture embraced and appreciated around the world and outside our homeland, this really made me feel loved💗
I’m impressed with the quality and pride in the food. I wish I could try it next time I’m in the area
A beautiful story. A beautiful mother. Beautuful food. I love learning about other cultures. I am half Slovenian and half Slovakian. There is a Middle Eastern influence in our food as well.
Wow
I Love Palestine🇵🇸🇫🇷🥰😊
Wonderful to see this..may allah bless her and her family and business..and may I find some woman just like her
Mom always knows best. May Allah bless her.
I am Palestinian-American and that is authentic Palestinian food just like mom used to make!
Repeated in interviews in all the traditional cultures all are rooted in the same things, Faith, Family, Food, gathering, hospitality, and a mom, grandma with love in the heart and magic in the kitchen.
As a Palestinian, this brings me so much joy and pride, and I was so happy seeing my village name in the video, 5:10 ( Dierdebwan ) on the Jameed ( Keeshiq ). So proud of you Ayat and your family,( MASHALLAH ) and I can't wait to come and try your food as soon as I'm in New york. Power to our beautiful Palestinian people.
Hello
Respect To A Palestinian
lol. pure garbage
@@yearlongcruiser Banned From My Channel
@@yearlongcruiser I Am Blocking You
I think a beautiful part of this was the husband wanting his wife to follow her dream and supporting her along the way. You can tell he respects her and let’s her shine without jealousy.
Aw, the end made me tear up a bit. You can see how much she loves her Mother.
My heart ❤️ goes out to the Palestinian people.
My heart❤ goes out to the Israeli people. It would never go to a bunch of criminal Palestinians.
@@yearlongcruiser You Are Banned
My heart goes out to the israli
@@whitrenee1 lol. I promise you will be banned from heaven.
This was an absolutely beautiful episode. Thank you 🙏❤
That was lovely! The people...the food...the love of gathering together.
Masha-Allah moms are just so cute...aren't they bless their souls.
Salam from Bay Ridge! Love going to Ayat for the great food and atmosphere. Beautiful representation of Bay Ridge's cultures from Ms. Ayat!
Pure and original beauty ❤️🇵🇸
Mensaf is my favorite Palestinian dish. I have so many great memories eating it at my grandparent’s home as a child, and thankfully my dad makes it regularly as well. A staple comfort food!
I wish we had more places with middleeastern food where i live in sweden. It looks so good!
you should do this again!
MASSIVE respect to first we feast for this feature. Great restaurant. Solidarity with the Palestinians always 💖🙏🏾
Palestine isn’t on my map.
@@mattfromtinder1055 lmao you need a better map then
@@mattfromtinder1055 It is, you're just illiterate.
@@bimapamungkas9109 nope, it’s not there
@@abhigyaanbararia8826 nope it’s says Israel.
What a beautiful video. Thank you for shining on light on Palestinian culture and this outstanding restaurant in particular!
I love middle eastern food i wanna travel to some of the countries there one day... I AM from México
Gotta love how every culture treats food. Generally its the same stuff sure but its the little details that make it interesting.
I watch this series every single week. I love that your exploring the different cultures in new york. Showing how much diversity and life there is. Taking it back to the real soul food of the community. The street vendors and food trucks or even outright restaurants. Food made with love, with passion. These guys shape our local communities and are vital in feeding us so its awesome to give them exposure. These places are where you'll get some of the best tasting food around. You can tell the real genuineness of the people who do this and its great. I honestly wish them nothing but the upmost success. God bless. 🤝💯
Wow ! such a beautiful couple. . Palestinians are beautiful resilient people and they have a great cuisine. God bless.
when i see your mom:- elegant. beauty and respect....masha allah long live to our parents
Man that food looks so good never tried Palestinian food. I'm from Sacramento CA I wanna find a place like that try it out one day.
@FirstWeFeast thank you for featuring Palestinians ❤
IDF❤
Awww this is so heartwarming ❤️ Free Palestine!
my room mate was palestinian and when i visited her family for the first time they really made me a meal omg..my belly almost exploded but it was so worth it
Keep up the great work. God bless you for sharing out traditions and foods with the world.
Also, that Mansaf looks fire 🔥
Wonderful mum and daughter relationship ❤
I pray that the Palestinians achieve their independence and freedom soon.
The world could use a lot more uniting dishes. 👍🙋♥️
Absolutely nothing to do with the show or the food... but... she's ACTUALLY beautiful. Take great care of her, Abdul.
Love that they have their own farm. The food looks soooooo good
I have a meat allergy and I normally don't miss eating meat. It's been eight years since I went vegetarian. But this right here is the first time I wish I could still eat meat.
Never heard of a meat allergy, does that extend to fish or dairy products?
@@ssgssbeet4133 one of my teachers in culinary school had an allergy to red meat, she could eat fish and poultry though.
mansaf is my ultimate favorite dish! thank you for showing our culture!
Ayat's mom is so cute, i love her. Im hungry now! ❤
Beautiful people and beautiful food
We love to see it! Culture and traditions passed down and the love for food to bring everybody together!
that's what I like to hear food bringing people together
Thank you for this Palestine-positive video FWF! 🙏🏽 God bless their business and bring us together in truth and peace
MashAllah. I ate here for the first time about a month ago. really great vibes and delicious food.
I'm planning my first trip to NYC for next fall. This place just landed itself on the "100% will visit" list.
just saying I love the environment created and this is what I call beautiful. Good food , family , and fun
Middle Eastern food is some of my favorite on earth, but I was not aware of any traditional Palestinian dishes until this episode. I would never live in the concrete jungle that is New York, but it, and LA, are American birth places for the masses to learn about a wide variety of cultures through great food.
Food, music, and dance are the single greatest contributors to bringing all folks, from all walks of life together, but food is the clear winner. Some folks don't like certain types of dance or music, but rarely is there a moment where folks don't want to try new flavors. New textures not always, but flavors tend to open folks up to a wealth of worlds.
On a slightly somber, but important note, Palestine is being invaded and there are UN recognized illegal settlements on Palestinian land. That should be dealt with if we even remotely care about freedom to live the way they wish to live.
That last bit was brought to you by an atheist. I have zero dogs/gods in the fight, but facts are facts. If we are suppose to care about what the UN thinks, then Israel is out of line with the agreements set forth by a wide swath of countries. If we don't mind disregarding the UN, which is fine by me, then we accept that might is right and we hold democracies in higher esteem than that of countries/cultures that suppress women's rights, have little to no freedom of speech, press, religious freedoms, etc. Freedom to be ones self is paramount in my eyes, but if rules are rules, then they are being broken by one nation and we should call them out on that front. That modern absurdity is complicated to no end.
I always loved first we feast and now I love them even more!!! Thanks so much for doing a video on the Palestinian culture!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
This was an amazing episode. Thanks for the view into this culture.
This is great, worthwhile content. With all due respect you can keep the stuff w/ famous people trying to break down the 'flavor profile' of a fancy $50 "hamburger" with foie gras and caviar make more of this.
Greetings to Palestinian people, you're culture is so beutiful and rich. I hope to see it thrive in freedom and peace once again in my liffetime.
thank you thats so nice of youu
This series is so amazing! So glad that I found it.
Beautiful people, beautiful food !
food, food and more foooddd
mark weins, first we feast. i cant get enough of these channels. 🤤
Big thumbs up for promoting Palestinian culture/food
This question has been lingering at the back of my mind for a while but first we feast when you were making this series was there a partial inspiration from the late Anthony Bourdain?
That has been my feeling watching it. Please make more - these are amazing stories
Wow these dishes look amazing! Would like to visit. love the vid very informative! I like that they have their own farm too. Lovely celebration of culture
Her mom is so cute! Definitely going to visit someday
That food looks and sounds amazing. They seem like lovely people, too.
I’m so proud of you guys ❤️
I live a few blocks away from Ayat their food is amazing and the closest thing to authentic Palestinian cuisine.
I have had the privilege to eat at this restaurant, please go and support them if you can! Well worth it
Whoa, hey, I randomly just found this video while eating food from Ayat. It’s SO good
