Even though it has been only one week since Roti Mediterranean Grill has open at 100 Maiden lane, it has already made a lovely addition to the Financial District. They have partnered with City Harvest, a food rescue organization, dedicated to feeding the city’s hungry men, women, and children.

Now let’s do some good and come to their first partnership event Wednesday, May 22 from 6-9pm. Roti will provide a free meal (including a fountain drink) when you donate to City Harvest. Donations will be accepted at the door. Cash only please. Minimum recommended donation of $5.

Roti Mediterranean Grill has a profound love of the Mediterranean experience and they want to bring it to you. With an ever increasing number of locations growing all the time I am please to announce they are in New York! I am happy that they made it to my neighborhood, the financial district, especially since Hurricane Sandy made some restaurants close. They use the Staples of Mediterranean cuisine like pitas, cous-cous, fire-roasted meats and hummus to ignite your future love of their food. Flavors you can’t forget long after you’re done eating. Today they open their doors, come by (a midtown location coming soon)!
