Breakfast at Zaitouna Café isn’t just the first meal of the day. It’s a cultural experience steeped in tradition, flavor, and nourishment. Drawing from the rich culinary heritage of the Eastern Mediterranean, Zaitouna Café brings authentic Middle Eastern breakfast rituals to life in the heart of Chester Hill.
Zaitouna Fatteh: A Signature Dish
At the center of this morning celebration is the beloved Zaitouna Fatteh—a Levantine classic that layers crispy pita bread, velvety yogurt, and tender chickpeas with fragrant spices. Finished with a drizzle of premium olive oil, toasted pine nuts, and a dusting of tangy sumac, it’s a dish that delights the senses and satisfies the soul.
Mediterranean breakfasts are designed to fuel the body with:
Protein-rich legumes for strength and satiety
Healthy fats from olive oil and nuts for heart health
Complex carbs from whole grains for sustained energy This balanced approach helps regulate blood sugar and keeps you feeling full and focused throughout the day.
Zaitouna Café sources fresh, local produce whenever possible and imports spices directly from the Mediterranean. Their house za’atar—a cherished family blend of wild thyme, sesame seeds, and sumac—adds a bold, earthy flavor that’s unmistakably authentic.
Whether you're starting your day or savoring a slow morning, Zaitouna Café offers a breakfast that’s both nourishing and nostalgic. Come taste tradition.
