Deerah opened on Royal Avenue in Belfast city centre in July 2021 after Saeb began to miss the fresh flavours of his home cuisine.
Saeb Sha'ath first moved to Belfast for university in the 1990s, and has now opened a café restaurant to bring authentic flavours of Lebanon to the heart of the city.
"But to be honest, Belfast is my favourite city, it feels like my hometown now, I'm a Belfast boy! If I go anywhere, I really miss the city." He said: "A place like this was definitely needed. I'm surprised when I see how many people in Belfast know about Middle Eastern food, or they've been to the Middle East and know a few Arabic words.
"I couldn't see any authentic Lebanese food here so I met up with a couple of Lebanese chefs and started designing this place to have the same authentic atmosphere like you are in a café the Middle East.
