Our Story

Our Mission

Our Mission
Welcome to our restaurant, where Middle Eastern cuisine takes center stage! Established in 2014 by Sam, our owner, we embarked on a mission to bring the true flavors of the Middle East to the vibrant city of Chicago. Sam, hailing from the holy lands of Jerusalem, was raised surrounded by the rich culinary traditions of his homeland. At the age of 18, he set off to the United States with a dream in his heart and a passion for sharing the authentic taste of Middle Eastern cuisine with others. Thus, Zam Zam (Carry Carry) was born, and we have been proudly serving the Chicago land area ever since.
