Read moreReem’s offers the experience of Arab hospitality through the discovery of flavors, aromas, and techniques of the modern Arab street corner bakery. We provide our take on classic Arab street foods, combining traditional flavors with high quality locally-sourced ingredients, all made with California love. We specialize in the man'oushe (pronounced Man-OOO-shay) a snack emblem of the Arab world enjoyed in the Levant. A man’oushe is a fresh baked flatbread topped with a variety of spices, cheeses, meats, and fresh vegetables, focusing on seasonality and unique ingredients not often exposed to the American public. In the street food setting, we bake our flatbreads fresh to order on a traditional griddle called a saj.
Reem’s wants to take people on a journey to the streets of the Middle East through the novel experience of Arab street food but also to invoke nostalgia in the food we make through fresh-baked bread, a common sought out food across all cultures. The spaces we create are intended to connect people across cultures, generations, and experiences.
Reem’s launched in April 2015, serving its breads and street food fare through farmers markets, food festivals, pop-ups, and catering. Over the last year, we have built a recognizable brand, developed a loyal base of customers who return weekly for our food weekly. We hope to one day open a bakery and cafe space where people can feel the warmth of connection, hospitality, and fresh-baked bread on a daily basis.
