The Levantine walk-up window Yalla will mark its five-year anniversary with some special festivities and is using the occasion to raise funds for Palestine. (Chef/owner Taylor Cheney is serious about speaking up about Palestine, as detailed in this feature by Stranger contributor Meg van Huygen, and has been hosting fundraisers for years.) All Friday, 100% of sales from Yalla's desserts and Palestine sweatshirts will benefit the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, which sends humanitarian aid to Palestinian children. Plus, the business will whip up Palestinian treats like ka’ak asawer (Palestinian date cookies) and atayef (semolina pancakes stuffed with cheese or pistachios and walnuts, fried and soaked in syrup). The local dance troupe Jafra Dabke Team will perform dabke (a traditional Levantine folk dance) at 9 pm. by Julianne Bell
