"Turning from a career in finance, founder chef, Roaya Saleh, established Villa Mamas to champion the flavours of her home, Bahrain, and the traditional foods of the Persian Gulf region. She takes her inspiration from her mother's cooking, and with branches in Bahrain, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh and London, she provides a reminder of home for Gulf tourists and a taste of heaven for local diners."
"The menu encompasses flavours and favourite dishes from across the Middle East, including a delicious qurma sabzi, a much-loved Iranian herb stew (and the first Iranian dish prepared in space by an astronaut!), chicken machbous (biriani in style and the national dish of Bahrain) and um ali, Egyptian bread and butter pudding. For those of us unfamiliar with the dishes offered on the menu, the listed ingredients cannot conjure the complexity of flavours or the joy that some of these dishes will inspire."
