CHICAGO — Almost 30 years ago, Mohammed Bashir founded affordable late-night Indian-Pakistani restaurant Ghareeb Nawaz with a simple motto: Nobody goes hungry.
Generations of Chicagoans — late-night workers, college students, cab drivers and immigrants searching for a taste of home — have been able to enjoy Ghareeb Nawaz without hurting their wallets.
Decades later, Bashir’s son Mohammed Bozai, who helms all four Chicagoland locations, is retaining his father’s maxim of generous meals for a low price, expanding the restaurant to Lincoln Park in recent weeks so more Chicagoans can get the Ghareeb Nawaz experience amid record inflation pinching pockets nationwide.
