Sawsan, I just happened upon your blog accidently and am in love with all the lovely textiles used in all the photos, they are as amazing as the food you’ve created. Thank you for sharing a little bit about you, your customs and your food. Blessings!

Very nice pictures. I wish you had a recipe index that I could read instead of scrolling pictures. Ramadan Kareem

Assalamualaikum Sawsan! I am Shabeena (Shabs) who blogs at Shabscuisine. I got to know about your blog through Lubnas blog! I am quite impressed with your blog, photographs, recipes and everything in general. I have spent major chunk of my life in UAE and I love Arabic cuisine.

On another note, I would love to know if you get your props from UAE? I collect lot of props from here and was wondering if I still need to collect them as I will be moving to UAE soon.

Thank you!

  Thank you kindly for stopping by and for your comment.
  Some of my props are from the UAE, others are from Jordan, Palestine and some are even from Egypt.
  Is there a specific prop you’d like to know the source of? I would be more than happy to help

I stumble upon your site today and so pleased that I have. Although I am not Arabic, my family and I are from the Levantine area, and your recipes have made me nostalgic. I look forward to trying them!
