Mediterranean Deli Owner Jamil Kadoura Puts Giving Back at the Center of the Restaurant’s Mission

Posted Jul 9, 2022
For our interview, we met mid-morning, coffee in hand, at Jamil Kadoura's restaurant, Mediterranean Deli, on West Franklin Street in Chapel Hill. Multiple people entered the deli—from businessmen to delivery workers to employees. The first thing they all did as they entered the deli was to head straight to Kadoura, hug him, and tell them they loved him. (Indy Week)
