Welcome to Conflict Kitchen's first iteration, Kubideh Kitchen. Conflict Kitchen is a take-out restaurant that only serves cuisine from countries that the United States is in conflict with. The food is served out of a take-out style storefront, which will rotate identities every 4 months to highlight another country. Each Conflict Kitchen iteration will be augmented by events, performances, and discussion about the the culture, politics, and issues at stake with each county we focus on. Kubideh Kitchen is an Iranian take-out restaurant that serves kubideh in freshly baked barbari bread with onion, mint, and basil. Developed in collaboration with members of the Pittsburgh Iranian community, the sandwich is packaged in a custom-designed wrapper that includes interviews with Iranians both in Pittsburgh and Iran on subjects ranging from Iranian food and poetry to the current political turmoil.

    Jon Rubin suggested I try the kubideh sandwich. Sure glad I did! The homemade barbari bread w/ black sesame seeds, seasoned ground beef , super- thin onions, fresh basil & fresh mint. Like gyros? Me too, but this is much better. Give the kubideh sandwich a try.
