Foodie and the BeastFoodie and the Beast - Aug. 13, 2023 Hosted by Nycci Nellis. On today’s show: - Have you been to Mike Rafidi’s YELLOW in Georgetown? The lil’ Levantine cafe serves up delicious pastries - the lebneh-filled croissant is Nycci’s kryptonite - pita-filled sandwiches and pizza that is not pizza.

In today is Ayat Elhag, the coffee director of YELLOW and Albi, where she helms a beverage program that blends creative, Levantine-inspired specialty drinks with intentionally sourced Counter Culture coffee;
