Operating seven days a week in the middle of the city, Conflict Kitchen uses the social relations of food and economic exchange to engage the general public in discussions about countries, cultures, and people that they might know little about outside of the polarizing rhetoric of governmental politics and the narrow lens of media headlines. In addition, the restaurant creates a constantly changing site for ethnic diversity in the post-industrial city of Pittsburgh, as it has presented the only Iranian, Afghan, Venezuelan, North Korean, Haudenosaunne and Palestinian restaurants the city has ever seen.
Our current Haudenosaunee version introduces our customers to the food, culture, and politics of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. Also known as the Iroquois Confederacy, the Haudenosaunee is a league of six Indigenous nations located primarily in upstate New York with historic ties to Western Pennsylvania.

About our food:
Musakhan is the national dish of Palestine. It’s just a round piece of bread with chicken, onions, and a ton of sumac. That’s it! Simple but delicious. You eat it rolled up like a sandwich or flat like a pizza.
EVENT: JOIN A LOCAL PALESTINIAN FOR LUNCH
Each week a different local Palestinian will be available at Conflict Kitchen to share their lunchtime with any members of the public that are interested in joining.
