When you bite into a chicken taco <\/span>\u00e1rabes<\/span><\/i> at <\/span>Evette\u2019s restaurant<\/span><\/a><\/span>, you are tasting over a century of the blending of Lebanese and Mexican cultures, say chefs Rafael Esparza and Mitchell AbouJamra.<\/span><\/p>\n

The taco consists of cumin-marinated chicken wrapped in pita bread and was inspired by a dish created by Lebanese and other Middle Eastern immigrants who fled to Mexico during the Ottoman Empire.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"chefs,

For Esparza, who identifies as Chicano and whose family comes from Mexico, it’s that hidden history of immigrants adopting and blending their cuisine in a new country that makes Evette\u2019s unique.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI want customers to walk away with an understanding of the culture and identity struggle that children of immigrants had,\u201d said Esparza, who is co-owner of Evette\u2019s with AbouJamra. \u201cImmigrant children try to incorporate their culture and assimilate even through food, Americanizing their food, like \u201ctaco pizzas,” so we don’t seem like weirdos.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While taco pizzas are not on the menu of Evette\u2019s, which opens today at 350 W. Armitage Ave. in Chicago, Esparza and AbouJamra\u2019s Mexican and Lebanese heritage is front and center in the menu.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Customers can choose from a variety of dishes that blend the chefs’ immigrant and Midwest roots including pita nachos, halloumi tacos, and baklava shakes. The nachos, made with fried pita bread, are covered in a special sauce from a family recipe passed down from Esparza\u2019s grandmother.<\/span><\/p>\n

The idea for Evette\u2019s came from AbouJamra, who dreamed of starting a restaurant that would blend his own family’s cooking with other cultures. The restaurant is named after AbouJamra\u2019s grandmother.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEvette\u2019s menu has been in my head forever,\u201d said AbouJamra. \u201cMy <\/span>teta<\/span><\/i> Evette and aunt\u2019s food has been perfected over generations, but I want to show what my experience was as an American-Lebanese.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

AbouJamra met Esparza while he was delivering produce to Esparza\u2019s old cafe, Finom Coffee. That cafe, which has since closed, featured Hungarian dishes and Mexican-inspired drinks like <\/span>Tres Leches De la Rosa.<\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As restaurants shut down in the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, AbouJamra decided that now was the time to take a chance on his dream.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

AbouJamra asked Esparza, who has long explored the melding of cultures in his cuisine, to join him in opening Evette\u2019s. Having had worked at fine dining and sit-down restaurants for most of his career, Esparza was ready for a more fun, fast approach to serving food.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Beirut,

Diane Bou Khalil\/Borderless Magazine<\/p><\/div>\n

The partnership felt fitting.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was scary how natural Mexican cuisine fit with my family\u2019s existing recipes,\u201d said AbouJamra, \u201cThe flavors combine together perfectly.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The blending of Lebanese and Latin American cuisine featured at Evette\u2019s is not something new. From the 1860s to the early 1900s many Lebanese immigrated to Europe, Australia, and Latin America following the Mount Lebanon massacre of Christians during the rule of the Ottoman Empire.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As Lebanese migrated across the world, they carried with them their unique culture and cuisine. \u201cThey brought shawarma to Mexico, specifically Puebla, Mexico,\u201d said AbouJamra. \u201cThe way that shawarma meat was cooked on a vertical spit influenced the Mexican dish <\/span>al pastor<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/span>.<\/span> Maybe without Lebanese culture\u2019s influence on Mexico,<\/span> al pastor<\/span><\/i> wouldn\u2019t exist.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

AbouJamra\u2019s own grandma grew up in Cuba and spoke Spanish. He says that it was Evette\u2019s passion for food that inspired him to have a career in food.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAt a young age I could help <\/span>teta<\/span><\/i> roll <\/span>warak enab <\/span><\/i>[stuffed grape leaves] and by the time I was four years old, I was helping my <\/span>teta <\/span><\/i>and <\/span>jeddo<\/span><\/i> [grandpa] pick parsley.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"grandmother,

Food was also the family business. His grandfather\u2019s brother bought a butcher shop in Michigan in 1972, and when his grandfather retired he moved his family to the United States to help with the shop. AbouJamra was the first one out of his family to be born in the United States and learned how to butcher at his family\u2019s store as a young man.<\/span><\/p>\n

For AbouJamra and Esparza, it is this rich family history that Evette\u2019s is drawing from when the chefs serve Chicagoans.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe food is real stuff we have tried our whole lives, and it is fun for someone who doesn’t know it,\u201d said Esparza. \u201cWe want to get people to understand that the first generation Mexican and Lebanese culture converging with the Midwest is me and Mitchell’s experience, this is what it looks like.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Evette\u2019s is open for takeout at 350 W. Armitage Ave., Chicago. See <\/span><\/i>website<\/span><\/i><\/a><\/span> for hours.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n
