Four Seasons Hotel Riyadh offers you a new meaning of delicious and divine pastries to satisfy your food cravings, prepared by Lebanese chef Ramzi Al-Aridi giving you a heavenly pastry selection.

 

Ramzi Al-Aridi’s love for pastries started way back and to be an esteemed chef in this domain runs deep since childhood, chef Al-Aridi commented saying: “Ever since I was a child I spent my past time with my mother in the kitchen doing pastries and trying out new desserts.” He also adds: “I always looked forward to that one day of the week where my mother would allow me some time with her at the kitchen and help her around. My mother’s teachings and effort instigated my techniques and dedication, and shaped me into the chef I am today.”

 

Chef Ramzi’s passion took a serious turn when he opened his own pastry shop in Lebanon, the chef commented by saying: “I grew up with the goal of opening my own pastry; to reach that goal I had to finish my studies first in order to be fully committed to my shop.”

 

After almost 11 years of running his own pastry shop, chef Ramzi decided to switch things up and move to work in the hospitality industry. “I spent 11 years working on my own and gained sufficient experience that has enriched my knowledge in pastries, and then I felt like it was the right time to begin a new chapter in my life.” Says the chef. To begin his new journey Chef Ramzi started working at the renowned Hotel Phenicia Intercontinental Lebanon starting as Junior Chef and then promoted to Oriental Pastry Chef. After 13 years of working at the Intercontinental, Chef Ramzi joined the Four Seasons family as an Oriental Pastry Chef.

 

Chef Ramzi is known for his Oriental pastries, and no one beats him at his most famous dish, Cheese Konafa. If you want to have a taste of these delights stop by at the pastry corner found at Elements restaurant, which is located at the hotel’s ground floor.
 

Four Seasons Hotel Riyadh continues to stay committed to offering the tastiest delights, with a wide variety of pastry selections to fulfill your food cravings and satisfy each and everyone’s sweet tooth.
