Yalla Pasta
(Let's Go, Pasta)
Pasta with Middle Eastern character. Fast, hot, and full of soul. Tahini where you expected cream. Pomegranate where you expected parmesan. Yalla means no waiting.
The Word Behind the Dish
Why Yalla?
Yalla (ููุง / ืืืืื), Arabic, fully adopted into Hebrew. "Let's go!" "Come on!" "Move it!"
Yalla is the most universal word of the Middle East. Arabs, Jews, Druze, Christians, every community says yalla. It crosses every border, every religion, every conflict.
It is, quite literally, a word that unites nations. And it ended up in Israeli Hebrew because when people live together long enough, their languages find each other.
At OyPizza, Yalla Pasta is served the way the word feels, fast, warm, without waiting. The fusion on the plate mirrors the fusion in the word.
