Debbie and George Sayegh visited Florida in 2012 when they fell in love with St. Petersburg. Now, the Sayegh's are proud St. Pete locals of 7 years and owners of Latin-inspired EDGE district restaurant, Bodega. Baba, meaning "father, " stems from Sayegh's meditteranean cultures and pays homage to both George's father, George Sayegh Sr., and Debbie's father, Tommy Lekas, as Baba means "Dad" in Lebanese and Greek.
Baba is a nod to both George's father, George Sayegh Sr., and Debbie's father, Tommy Lekas, as Baba means "Dad" in Lebanese and Greek (Debbie is Greek and George is Lebanese). But the Sayeghs also plan to reference other relatives who influenced them through food at Baba, which will focus on Greek and Lebanese cuisine with an American twist.
