For over two decades, we’ve roamed the fertile valleys, mountain villages, coastal towns, and bustling cities of Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Turkey, and beyond—driven by a deep curiosity to taste, learn, and immerse ourselves in the region’s rich culinary traditions.

We’ve sought out artisanal producers in remote farming regions, savoured home-cooked Lebanese food, and lingered over time-honoured meze classics with arak in historic tavernas. From lively Middle Eastern restaurants and traditional Turkish grill houses to bustling modern eateries and entrepreneurial street food carts, every experience has shaped our approach to an extraordinary cuisine—bursting with flavour, colour, and texture, rooted in a connection that transcends borders.

Food is a universal language—a way to forge connections, preserve heritage, and create lasting memories. But at its heart, Arabica is about more than just food—it’s about people. It’s about the timeless ritual of gathering around a table to break bread, share stories, and celebrate traditions.

Arabica brings these flavours to life, offering a taste of the warmth, generosity, and spirit of the Eastern Mediterranean.
