Products & services

Authentic Lebanese restaurant serving shawarma, hummus, kibbeh, grills, mezze platters, and traditional desserts. Revenue streams include: • Dine-in service — indoor seating plus outdoor area in a high-footfall mall location • Takeout & delivery — active on major aggregator platforms (Talabat, Deliveroo, Careem) • Catering — events and corporate catering for the surrounding JVC residential community • Subscription meal plans — recurring weekly meal packages for local residents Average monthly revenue ranges between AED 40,000–50,000, with seasonal dips (e.g. Ramadan at ~AED 35,000). Food costs run approximately AED 3,500/month. The concept was built from day one with franchise scalability in mind — standardized recipes, branded décor, and a documented operations playbook.

Customers & market

The restaurant serves both mall visitors and the dense residential community surrounding JVC (Jumeirah Village Circle), one of Dubai's most populated residential areas. Key metrics: • 4.9 Google rating from ~400 reviews — strong customer satisfaction and loyalty • ~6,000 Instagram followers built through influencer collaborations and consistent marketing investment • Customer base is a mix of walk-in mall traffic, delivery orders, and repeat local residents • Aggregator platforms extend reach beyond the immediate mall catchment area • Seasonal patterns: Ramadan sees a dip to ~AED 35,000/month; peak periods align with mall footfall spikes and holiday seasons No single customer accounts for a material concentration of revenue — the business is well-diversified across walk-in, delivery, and catering channels.
