While she put the first on hold, she solved the second: she started a Sudanese and Middle-Eastern catering enterprise! Entertaining at home, Sana&#8217;s Japanese friends went wild for her food: &#8220;I found that the best way to introduce a culture is through its food.&#8221; Now Sana&#8217;s company Kebabooz caters parties and events, and also runs a &#8220;kebab car&#8221; which you&#8217;ll see sometimes at Hawks Town on game days. Sana imports spices directly from Sudan for an authentic taste. Kebabooz combines the Sudanese home-made taste with a Japanese aesthetic. Sana hopes to open a restaurant in Fukuoka in the near future; meanwhile contact her for a quotation for a whole party service, or just a container of hummus, falafel and fresh pita.<br \/>\nWeb: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kebabooz.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.kebabooz.com<\/a> \/ Email: kebabooz@hotmail.com<\/p>\n<p>Aljazeera &#8211; Sudan<br \/>\nCaterer\/Kebab shop owner<br \/>\nIn Japan: 10 years<\/p>\n<p><strong>Originally published in Fukuoka Now magazine (<a href=\"http:\/\/issuu.com\/fukuokanow\/docs\/fn123\" target=\"_blank\">fn123, Mar. 2009<\/a>)<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Sana came to Fukuoka she missed practicing two of her favorites: her profession as a veterinarian, and hanging out with friends over a dish with homeland flavor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8743,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_locale":"en_US","_original_post":"8558","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4911],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-76725","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-people","location-fukuoka-city","en-US"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/fn123-gekkan-gaijin.jpg?fit=960%2C1280&ssl=1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76725","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=76725"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76725\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":98440,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/76725\/revisions\/98440"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8743"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=76725"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=76725"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=76725"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
