Our Story

A Taste of Egypt,
A Journey of Passion

Menna, Founder of Wowshi

Wowshi began with a simple goal — to share the food we love. What started as homemade catering became something far bigger when one dish stole the show.

How Wowshi Was Born

It started under the name Triple Tasty, offering homemade Egyptian dishes through catering — every plate made with care and the authentic flavors of home. But something special kept happening. People came back again and again for one dish in particular: Hawawshi.

Traditional Egyptian street food — perfectly spiced meat tucked inside crispy bread and baked until golden. Made from scratch, with pride. The reactions were overwhelming. This dish wasn't just a menu item, it was an experience. That's when the decision was made to go all in. That's when Wowshi was born.

"

Wowshi isn't just a business anymore. It's a dream that turned real. It's my story, it's my culture, and it's my love — served hot and fresh to anyone who wants a bite.

— Menna, Founder of Wowshi

Built With Grit & Love

Menna preparing Wowshi

The road has been anything but smooth. Building Wowshi from the ground up while raising four young children has been one of the greatest challenges imaginable — late nights, early mornings, and countless moments of digging deep to keep going.

From school runs to early morning markets, from bedtime stories to big catering orders — every step has required sacrifice, resilience, and an unshakable belief. Through every long night and every obstacle, the choice was always the same: keep showing up. Because some dreams are worth every ounce of effort.

Every struggle, every long night, every obstacle has shaped Wowshi into what it is today — a story of grit, love, and unbreakable spirit.

More Than Just Food

At Wowshi, we serve more than food — we serve nostalgia, comfort, and culture, all wrapped up in a warm, crispy bite. We specialize in authentic Egyptian street food, bringing the bold, comforting flavors of Egypt to the heart of the United States.

Nothing is mass-produced or rushed. Each item is prepared the way it's done back home — by hand, with love, using authentic Egyptian ingredients and traditional techniques. And that love shows. Our customers often say they can feel it from the very first bite.
