Cooked together
We like handing the kitchen over. Chefs, creators and guest baristas come in, cook or pour something that is theirs, and it runs for a limited time under their own name.

Some of it comes back. Most of it does not — that is the point of a collaboration.
Chef Faisal × Shalwa
A limited-run Khaleeji plate built around our saffron and pistachio service. His recipe, his name on the card, our dallah alongside it.

Everyone who has cooked here

Azzam In The Pan × Shalwa
A sweet built with the creator who has been arguing about Khaleeji dessert online for years.

Guest baristas
A rotating bar takeover. Someone else’s roast, someone else’s hands, our dallah.
