Hi! My name is Malaka Gharib. The Grand International is a little diary of my travel-culinary adventures. Coming from a Filipino and Egyptian background, I am fascinated by obscure, authentic ethnic foods — and hopefully, this blog will get you excited about it, too.
I am currently living in Washington, D.C., and working at an digital media agency. This site is a spacehub of all my hobbies, so you can find my illustration portfolio, writing samples and entrepreneurial projects (Little Bitties) here.
