About

If you’re fortunate enough to have experienced a meal in the Middle East, you know all about their warmth, ambiance and extravagance. Whether it’s on a terrace accompanied by an afternoon tea, or sipping Arak in the evening, the “joie de vivre” can’t be missed.

Having successfully recreated the magic, our chef Joe Awad and his team have put together a menu featuring traditional flavours reimagined with a modern flare.

Our friendly and attentive staff will make you feel as though you’ve walked through the fabric of time to the other side of the world. Prepare your tastebuds, they’re in for an amazing experience!

Just a note as we were 2 people & had ordered the food tasting menu. The quantity of food was for 4 people. Maybe readjust the quantity & price as per the number of people. :)

I took the egg benedict with gravelax. I wish the gravelax was left on the side as it was cooked but still, the eggs were delicious! This is my only criticism. The service was outstanding!
