Food Made With
Meet Arwa
I'm a Middle Eastern Chef from Saudi Arabia, now based in Lisbon, where I blend traditional culinary wisdom with modern nutritional science.
My journey began in my grandmother's kitchen, where I learned that food is more than sustenance - it's love, memory, and healing.
With Love,
Arwa

Nourishment
Quality ingredients and simple preparation create food that naturally supports your wellbeing and makes you feel better.
Cooking with Love
Join me for intimate, hands-on workshops in my home kitchen in Estrela, Lisbon - a warm, welcoming space where food becomes a sacred ritual.
In small groups of 6-8 women, we gather around my table to explore the art of conscious cooking, blending Middle Eastern traditions with seasonal Portuguese ingredients.
Each session is a sensory journey through spices, techniques, and the mindful preparation of food that nourishes body and soul. You'll leave with new skills, recipes, and a deeper connection to the healing power of cooking with intention.
More than a cooking class, it's a celebration of community, creativity, and the joy of sharing food made with love.
A Taste of Love
How herbs, spices, and love awaken tradition.
Chef Arwa Abonomai's debut cookbook invites readers on a sensory journey through flavor, culture, and imagination. Rooted in the mystic of the Middle East, each recipe reveals how spices carry history, emotion, and the quiet poetry of care.
The book presents 20 dishes from around the world - first in their authentic local form, then "the Arwa way" - infused with her signature blend of Middle Eastern herbs, depth, and soul.
From Portuguese grilled fish and Italian bolognese to Indian curries and Saudi comfort dishes, every chapter shows how intention, creativity, and spice can transform the familiar into something extraordinary.
Where the mystic of the Middle East meets the heart of home - and every bite tells a story of love, flavor, and connection.
