The Mantu introduces culture and builds bridges to people
AUTHENTIC AFGHAN CUISINE IN THE MODERN STYLE
“Food brings people together on many different levels. It’s nourishment of the soul and body. It’s truly love.
For more than 15 years, I have provided exquisite Afghan cuisine to the valley of the sun, in a tradition of pride and excellence. A combination of arts come together in my life — writing poems and cooking. Food is my love and passion, and creativity is emotionally connected to my physical and spiritual life.
It was my dream to open my own restaurant — to craft a variety of recipes and introduce Afghan cuisine to the world. In 2019, I opened The Mantu, the only Afghan cuisine fine dining restaurant in Richmond, Va.”
— Chef Hamid Noori
