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.

Jordan Heritage Restaurant is a not-for-profit entity founded in 2014. It strives to document, revive, and share Jordan’s heritage with both local citizens and international travelers. The ultimate goal is to use this heritage as a means to promote diversity, women’s empowerment, social unity, economic sustainability, and cross-cultural interactions.
The journey began with the exploration of “Mansaf” – a Lamb with Yogurt dish, originating from remote villages during the Great Arab Revolt. Inspired by this dish, local Jordanian villagers started preparing a variety of unique meals, with the total reaching 25, leading Jordan Heritage to decide to document Jordanian gastronomy. After five years of this pursuit, Jordan Heritage has collected 95 dishes from various regions and cultural communities of Jordan for everyone to enjoy.
