Chef Fadi Kattan founded Fawda Restaurant in Bethlehem in 2016. Since then, he has created a cuisine that honors Palestine’s best produce with a modern twist, effectively becoming a voice of modern Palestinian cuisine. Influenced by his family, both firmly rooted in Bethlehem and with a rich, longstanding history of travel throughout countries including France, Sudan, Japan, and India, Fadi’s cuisine and savoir-faire combine global influences with a desire for perfection and a passion for the local terroir.
