Shebbak Beirut

Lebanese food is built for sharing, and its photography should respect that generosity. For Shebbak Beirut in Riyadh, I approached the mezze spreads, grilled dishes and cold preparations with the warmth and informality that define this cuisine. Nothing was placed on the plate that a guest would not find there; nothing was removed that would normally be present. The images perform across the restaurant’s printed menu and social media presence in Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC market, occupying Lebanese food photography’s well-defined visual territory while being specifically and recognisably Shebbak Beirut.
