Exploring the Middle East: A Journey Through Culture, Politics, and Culinary Arts

Exploring the Middle East: A Journey Through Culture, Politics, and Culinary Arts

I am making a special fried dessert for clients and partners at a small networking evening.

I have a huge interest in and deep knowledge of the Middle East, a region that spans Western Asia and parts of North Africa. Known for its strategic geopolitical significance, rich cultural heritage, and diverse socio-political landscapes — these are my favorite personal areas of interest.

As an enthusiastic reader of books and news, particularly about developments in the region, I am now striving to become a master chef. ‘Katayef riz bel halib’ is a Lebanese dessert.
