Fatimas

'What a treasure this is. Jammed full of tried and true Middle Eastern and Meditterranean recipes, 30 years in the making. Beautifully designed, with stunning photography and sage advice, this is my new "go-to!" Make some room Yotam, there's a new kid on the block!' - Al Brown

'At last, the Fatimas cookbook! Since opening in 1995, Fatimas has turned Kiwis into the bold, traditional flavours of the Middle East and the Meditterranean, always with the Fatima's treatment. This joyful cookbook, from the happy warriors at Fatimas, now enables anyone to enjoy these flavours in their own kitchen. Home cooks can build a delicious repertoire of their favourites, guided by the same punchy, vibrant flavurs that define Fatimas modern take on street food. A search for flavour is something Fatimas understands - and with this book I'll certainly be cooking them.' - Ray McVinnie

'As a chef who's spent many years working in Ponsonby, Fatimas has always been one of my go-to spots during breaks. Their chawarmas and koftas are legendary. I'm genuinly excited that they've put together a cookbook, which I know will become a staple in home kitchens across Aotearoa. It's a chance for all of us to bring a bit of that Fatimas magic home.' - Sid Sahrawat
