WelCOmE to Shaya. We are thrilled to share with you the foods of modern-day Israel. This vibrant cuisine is a living mosaic of many origins: from Turkey to Morocco, Bulgaria to Greece, and Yemen to Russia. These foods are rooted in a rich history but have since sprouted beyond these roots. We pride ourselves in being a part of this story while supporting our local farmers in Louisiana and Mississippi, and honoring the fresh seafood from our Gulf of Mexico.
