Discover Our Story

At the heart of this restaurant is Syrian born chef, Muhammad Modrek, and the food he prepares
pays homage to his roots in Damascus, one of the oldest cities in the world. He schooled and trained as a chef, and worked at prestigious restaurants and hotels, in his home city before the war broke out. In his mission to continuously expand his expertise, he drew influence from all parts of the Middle East
His passion for food brought him to South Africa when Syria was no longer a place where he could
follow his dreams. Living in Cape Town, he has drawn further inspiration from the local culture and infused this into his already impressive culinary repertoire.
The restaurant has a charming atmosphere with a relaxed Shisha Lounge. The cuisine boasts
mouth-watering authentic and creative dishes, cooked to perfection by a passionate team for your culinary enjoyment and satisfaction.
It is said that each dish is prepared as an art piece; bursting flavour, spices, fresh ingredients and love.
Enjoy the experience with us!
