On today’s show, I speak with the fabulous Edy Massih, founder of the vibrant Edy’s Grocer. Born and raised in Lebanon, Edy tells us about his experience moving to Boston, how he discovered his love for food, and how he’s paving new paths in the culinary world for other queer Middle Easterners.

From attending the Culinary Institute of America - which included a brief stint in Italy - and training as a sommelier, to catering private events at Spotify and across New York’s elite townhouses, he has always had his eye on the next big thing.

But when the pandemic hit, Edy’s catering business came to an abrupt halt and he had to quickly pivot his business model — and, once again, it seems like his strategy is working as he continues to feed New Yorkers with his delicious Lebanese dishes that pay homage to his home.

He’s set on becoming the Middle Eastern Martha Stewart and nothing seems to be in his way, especially as he keeps investing in his greatest asset: himself!

So, without further ado, here’s Edouard Massih on Corporate Queeries. Stay active and stay queer!
