This page covers Lebanon. Opening hours, seasonal items and the exact line-up of dishes vary between branches here, so treat the list below as the group standard and the branch pages as the detail.

This page collects what is happening across the group: new dishes and seasonal menus, branch openings and refurbishments, the collaborations and community projects the teams take on, and the occasional piece of company news worth sharing. Entries are grouped by country, so use the selector above to see what is running near you.

Seasonal items tend to appear first in one market and then travel — a drink developed for the summer in Beirut often turns up in Doha the following year. Where an item is limited to particular branches, the entry says so.

Seasonal menus are the most frequent entries here. Each one starts in a test kitchen months before it appears on a table: a shortlist of dishes is cooked for the operations team, cut down by half, then run as a soft launch in two or three branches before it goes group-wide. The items that survive that process are the ones you see announced on this page.

The rest of what we post falls into three groups: openings and refurbishments, which tell you where to find a new room; community and sustainability work, from packaging changes to the partnerships our teams take on locally; and company news such as certifications and awards, which matter mostly to the people who work here but say something about how the kitchens are run.

Announcements are dated and country-tagged. If an item is limited to particular branches or runs only for a few weeks, that is stated in the entry rather than buried in small print.
