Najla's Kitchen

Amman


This daytime-only menu is a spin-off from the popular Beit Sitti cooking school next door, but this time the Haddad family cook for you. The set menu changes from day to day according to the seasonal availability of produce, but you can call ahead to advise if you have any special dietary requirements, as well as to book a table.

The decor is cosy and homely, right down to grandma's blue and white plates on the wall.
