Conflict Kitchen

In Pittsburgh's East Liberty neighborhood, you can find a line of people in front of a colorful take-out restaurant beside Waffle Shop on the corner of Highland and Baum. Large Arabic letters are spread out on top of the restaurant's mouth. Early in May this year, the Arabic letters read "Kubideh Kitchen", which meant the take-out restaurant was serving kubideh, an Iranian minced meet kebab. On the same month, the facade of the restaurant changed as well as the Arabic letters, which then read "Bolani Pazi", pertaining to the new dish it was serving--Afghan turnovers filled with pumpkin, lentils, potato and leeks or spinach. In the coming months, the restaurant will continue to change facades and menus. But one of the things that will remain is its commitment to serving cuisine only from the countries the United States is in conflict with. This take-out restaurant is, after all, called the Conflict Kitchen. Although its menu may be exclusive t

Flip 1

I write Flip-1 repping SBA CRU! A true ManileƱo, born and raised. My introduction to graffiti started in Metro Manila back in 1990. That was the year when hip-hop blew up in The Philippines and the emerge of Pinoy rappers and rapping in Filipino. I read an article about NY graf in a magazine and I was fascinated seeing pictures of graffiti in subway trains/walls in unique letter styles and colours. I thought it would be cool to do these in Manila's walls since back in the days, there were only plain scribbles whether its political messages or names of 80s bands, etc. I showed the article to my best friend Chris and we grabbed some cans and hit-up some walls. We then formed SBA in 1993. Back when we started, we didn't have a specific name. We wrote various words from "scumm" to "tribe" to "hip-hop". Later on I decided to write "Flip-1" and Chris wrote "Flow-1". I thought the name itself sounded cool and other th
