In This Tour We’ve paired 3 of the rich local Hadad Araks to bring out five of the flavors of Jordanian cuisine,

The Jordan Heritage Restaurant, is a non-profit organization established in 2014. Its mission is for Jordanian heritage to be documented, revived, and experienced by all locals and international visitors; thus, using heritage as a vehicle of pluralism, women’s rights, social cohesion, commercial sustainability and inter-cultural exchange.

It all started when tracing the “Mansaf” – Lamb with Yogurt in the remote villages back from the Great Arab Revolt, and as a response the local Jordanian villagers would make all sorts of unheard dishes; the number of dishes reached 25, Jordan Heritage decided to document the Jordanian cuisine. Five years later, Jordan Heritage had amassed 95 dishes from all corners and cultural groups of Jordan to the taste of all.
