Maher Al Sabbagh
The Damascus-born chef Maher Al Sabbagh arrived in Rotterdam via Sicily and Milan in 1992 and has built a warm relationship with the residents of the Maasstad with his cooking skills. Nothing is too crazy for him. Time and again he surprises diners with age-old Palestinian dishes, Sicilian anti-pasti, Syrian soups, but also traditional Dutch desserts like hang-op.

“together we make impact!”
“With this unique collaboration, Zadkine and the Doelen are actively contributing to the social-societal task of our region and our residents. We are creating a unique offer for students to quickly gain practical experience and a valuable degree in a sector where there is a high demand for well-trained personnel. We also actively contribute to the college targets of the City of Rotterdam. We want to contribute to fewer Rotterdammers on welfare. That's how we at Zadkine have your future together,” - Perry van Milt, director of Zadkine Hospitality College.
