Support Chef Ali's Dream Restaurant in Buffalo

Hey, I’m Chef Ali Born and raised right here in Buffalo, NY.

My story started at 15, when I picked up a knife and a frying pan and honestly, those tools saved my life. Cooking gave me purpose, kept me out of trouble, and took me on a journey across the country, working in restaurants and learning from incredible chefs from all walks of life. It’s been a wild ride, and through it all, I’ve stayed connected to my roots and my community.

Now, I’m finally living my dream opening my own restaurant. It’s more than just a place to eat; it’s a space to bring people together, celebrate our culture, and give back. I’ve always believed in using food as a way to uplift and support my community, whether it’s through local sourcing, mentorship, or simply sharing good vibes over a plate.

But I need your help to secure the perfect location and make this dream a reality. Your support means everything, it’s an investment in a vision rooted in community, passion, and purpose.

Let’s build something special together. A place where Buffalo’s soul shines through, one plate at a time.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Let’s cook up something amazing!
