Shah's Halal Food is opening soon in downtown Silver Spring. It will be at 8517 Colesville Road, in the former Jerry's Subs & Pizza space in the Hale Center. Shah's began as a pushcart in Richmond Hill in Queens, New York in 2005. Founder Ibrahim Mashriqi's sons would ultimately build Shah's into the juggernaut it is today, rapidly expanding nationally and internationally.
Shah's has a famous signature white sauce that tops its meat and rice platters, gyros, and wraps. If this sounds familiar, well, it's because Ibrahim was one of many entrepreneurs in New York inspired by the 1990s innovations of The Halal Guys. But his sauce stands apart because he incorporated spices from his native Afghanistan into the recipe. Silver Spring diners will soon have a chance to taste test the difference for themselves.
