Cherryhouse is celebrating Emirati Women’s Month with a special culinary collaboration. The homegrown UAE roastery, artisanal bakery and all-day dining destination has teamed up with Emirati chef and culinary creator Chef Hessa Aljassmi for its first-ever culinary collaboration.⁠
⁠
The result is a limited-edition menu inspired by familiar Emirati flavours and ingredients, given a modern twist through bread, croissants and laminated pastries.⁠
⁠
Available for dine-in from 28 August to 28 September 2026, the menu features four exclusive creations. Three are available now, while the fourth will launch in two weeks.⁠
⁠
The collection uses local ingredients including Khalas dates from Liwa, Sabaa Sanabel flour from Mleiha Farm in Sharjah and Emirati ghee from Al Marmoom. Cardamom, cumin and nigella also feature throughout.⁠
⁠
The menu includes the Salted Sesame Butter, Khalas Date Loaf, Date Cardamom Basket and Spiced Cheese. The standout Date Cardamom Basket takes inspiration from safafa, the traditional Emirati craft of palm weaving. It features a woven basket-style croissant filled with Khalas dates and cardamom, then finished with date molasses and caramelised pecans.⁠
⁠
Beyond the food, the collaboration celebrates Emirati women shaping the UAE’s culinary and hospitality scene. It also shines a spotlight on homegrown talent and the next generation of Emirati women redefining the industry.⁠

⁨ سعدتُ بلقاء سيدات نادي ذخر في شيري هاوس. عرّفتهن بمجموعتي لشهر المرأة الإماراتية، ثم امتدّ حديثنا إلى قصصهن وتجاربهن.

لامسني جداً فخرهن الصادق، وأسعدتني كلمات التشجيع التي وجّهنها لي. بقي حديثهن معي بعد انتهاء اللقاء، وسيبقى هذا اليوم من أجمل ذكريات هذا التعاون. 🤍

شكراً للأخت مروة آل رحمة من بنك أبوظبي الأول، ولهيئة تنمية المجتمع في دبي ونادي ذُخر على هذا اللقاء.

I was delighted to meet the women of Thukher Club’s Al Safa branch at Cherryhouse. I introduced them to my collection for Emirati Women’s Month, and our conversation soon turned to their stories and experiences.

Their genuine pride touched me deeply, and their words of encouragement meant so much to me. What they said stayed with me long after the gathering ended. This day will remain one of my favourite memories from the collaboration. 🤍

Thank you to Marwa Al Rahma from First Abu Dhabi Bank, and to the Community Development Authority in Dubai and Thukher Club for this gathering.⁩ taken in Cherry House by @hessakj
