Welcome to the world of Awafi Cuisine – your gateway to the heart of Iraq’s rich and flavorful culinary tradition!

At Awafi, I believe in food that doesn't only excite your taste buds but also nourishes your body.

My love of middle eastern food and the lack therof here on the Big Island is what led me to create Awafi.

Aloha! My name is Ashorina and I am an Assyrian/Chaldean woman living on the Big Island of Hawaii. I am proud to bring the flavors of my culture to the island through delicious Middle Eastern Cuisine.

As an Assyrian/Chaldean, I am part of a rich and ancient culture with history dating back over 4,000 years. The Assyrian people have a unique language called Aramaic, which was once spoken all throughout the Middle East and is still spoken by a minority of people today that mostly reside in northern Iraq, and various other places all over the world. Our culture is rich in tradition and is deeply rooted in our faith, family, and community.

Carrying this culture through continuing traditions, speaking the language, and sharing the authenticity of these foods to my community brings a great joy to my heart. I hope you'll come and visit me and try some of my dishes, Trust me, your taste buds will thank you!
