About Upohar World Kitchen

  • Women Owned
  • Minority Owned
  • Asian Owned (AAPI)
Upohar means “gift” in Bengali, a fitting title given the company’s original mission. Established in 2011, Upohar World Kitchen has operated with the goal of giving back to the Lancaster, PA area. Their food truck employs recently arrived refugees, providing them with job training and work experience within the United States. This also gives immigrants a chance to share their culture with the United States via food. Upohar World Kitchen would be great for any event if you’re looking to enjoy great food while supporting a company that gives back to the community. The menu at Upohar World Catering is expansive, touching on a little of everything in terms of international cuisines. You can go for some Puerto Rican flare with delicious empanadas and traditional meat dishes. Try some eats straight from Nepal with some healthy and delicious lentil stew. Provide a taste of India by offering your guests some delectable spiced tea. Like what you hear? Book Upohar World Kitchen for your next event. Not only will guests love the food, they’ll love the folks that serve it. Interacting with refugees will expand your guests' palates and perspectives. MUST TRY Pernil y Arroz - Roast pork served over a mix of robustly flavored rice and pigeon peas. And did we mention it’s gluten and dairy free? Yes, please.
