Nestled among the southern streets and river walls of Cork City is the award-winning Café Izz, run by beloved couple Izz and Eman Alkarajeh.

Serving top-quality Palestinian food, including the always-popular manaeesh, steaming fresh pittas, traditional homemade desserts and rich coffee, Café Izz has become a much-loved destination in the heart of Cork’s food community.

In Jibrin, named after Eman’s family hometown in Palestine, Izz and Eman share recipes that will take you on a culinary journey of their homeland, with recipes including perfectly tender roast chicken (musakhan), bite-size dumplings (shishbarak), stuffed pickled aubergines (makdous) and the syrupy, cheese-stuffed pastry cake nabulsi kunafa.

About the Author

Palestinian couple Izz and Eman Alkarajeh came to Ireland with their four children in 2016. They eventually settled in Cork and started trading at Mahon Point Farmers' Market, where their entire stock sold out in just two hours on their first day.

One year later, they opened their now-beloved Izz Cafe in Cork City in 2019. Representing Palestinian cuisine, culture and hospitality is at the core of what Izz and Eman do.
