A Visit from Majid Mahjoub
This past Monday, we were privileged to have a visit from our friend, Majid Mahjoub, owner of Les Moulins Mahjoub, purveyors of fine Tunisian foods. Mr. Mahjoub was in town for our Taste of Traditional Tunisia at Zingerman’s Events on 4th during the evening. But first, he took some time to share his traditional foodways with Zingerman’s staff on Monday morning:
