Firdos Cafe and Grill was officially opened for business in October 2007, in the Arab District of Astoria, Queens. This was the idea of 2 young Baruch students looking to become their own bosses. Firas Zebib, the son of a long time restauranteur, embraced the entrepeneurial spirit at a young age and became friends with Kamran Syed who too, started off as a young entrepeneur. They both met at Baruch college and became friends with business ideas bubbling between the 2 minds. Kamran Syed, who once believed that the corporate world was his calling, left his job at the prestigious Deloitte and Touche to become his own boss. in his blood Firdos was originally named Firdos Cafe Persian/ Desi Grill specializing in Hookah and a fusion of selected Persian and Indo/Pak food providing a unique flavor and lounging/ dining experience. Along with the students the brother of one was brought along to head and co-manage food and beverage operation.
