Mayor Fung will join Mosaic Restaurant owners—and brothers—Fadi and Shadi Al-Tarazi to cut the ribbon and formally welcome the new small local business to the city.
Located at 89 Rolfe Sq., the restaurant was founded by the brothers “with a goal of sharing their Oriental Syrian food and Damascus culture,” according to the restaurant’s website.<http://www.
The mayor will be joined by members of the city’s Economic Development department, Rolfe Square residents and the staff of the restaurant.
The media is urged to come for photo and interview opportunities.
The restaurant is nestled in the city’s vibrant Rolfe Square neighborhood, which has thrived and grown since the mayor took office years ago. The neighborhood is a mecca for arts and culture and where the city’s diversity and richness is on full display.
