Taste of Damascus is an eco-friendly restaurant serving healthy vegetarian Middle Eastern cuisine and offering training and job opportunities to asylum-seekers and refugees.
After completing the restaurant training course, students are invited to apply to work at Taste of Damascus. There they receive support to complete the paperwork that is required to hire them.
This incentive is created by Za’atar NGO non-profit organization dedicated to helping refugees in Greece.
The food at the Taste of Damascus was so delicious, everything we tried was made fresh and beautifully presented. We ordered falafel plate paired with mezzés (hummus, moutabal/aubergine dip, muhammara/spicy dip). We also ordered fatteh. Fatteh is a dish made with crispy bread topped with chickpeas, tahini, yoghurt, lemon and cumin, it is served warm. The restaurant service was excellent and the atmosphere was relaxed and cosy. Highly recommend.
