The program is in Persian. About YARA ELMJOUIE: Yara Elmjouie is an award-winning video producer, journalist, and host. When he joined AJ+ in 2016, he started off producing both bite-sized news videos … and elaborately meal-prepped lunches (whose fumes would overtake the office once microwaved). So in 2018, he married his passion for food and journalism to launch what would eventually become “Eat This with Yara,” a short documentary show that looks at the intersection of food and society – all with a comedic twist. The show has gone on to win a prestigious James Beard award, Webby and Shorty awards, as well as a nomination from the Capital Emmys.
