Christine’s Cuisine has added a broader range of dishes in response to customer requests.

Mediterranean Cuisine is a cross-cultural cuisine. Preserved lemons for example, originate from the North African countries but you will also find them in the South of France. Saffron comes predominantly from the Middle East while Almonds which are thought to have originated in Asia were introduced to Europe by North Africans.

Mediterranean Cuisine is so popular that even a diet was named after it. Why, you may ask would Mediterranean Cuisine be so interesting that it would be considered to have dietary benefits? Perhaps it is because Mediterranean cuisine is based on simple cooking using ingredients we are all familiar with but in proportions that cuisines outside of the Mediterranean region might use differently. In Mediterranean cuisine, there is a huge emphasis on nuts, fruits & vegetables. It is fresh and seasonal.

We will focus our Mediterranean cuisine on fruits such as, melon, cherries, apricots, figs, strawberries, peaches, lemons & oranges, and vegetables such as zucchini, eggplant, tomatoes, fennel, garlic, artichokes, asparagus, peas & green beans. These are the fruits and vegetables that you will traditionally find in Mediterranean cuisine.

Expect the same freshness and intense flavours as you find in our Lebanese offerings extended across a wider range of dishes that are prepared after consultation with clients. Menu selections vary by season to ensure only the highest quality, so we will develop the menu in close consultation with you. In mid-winter, for example, the range of available dishes is reduced since fresh produce of the highest quality is an absolute requirement that is difficult to achieve across the whole range of possible dishes.

Contact us to discuss your specific requirements. We are flexible and experienced and we will make suggestions and adjust our proposed menu offerings to meet your needs. More typical catering fare such as open-faced sandwiches, charcuterie, etc. is also available.

We look forward to developing options that are healthy, tasty and which will delight your guests.
