Food enthusiasts, prepare your taste buds for an extraordinary culinary journey as Daddy Cool’s Kitchen. Conceptualized by the charismatic star of Netflix’s Dubai Bling, Ibrahim Kattan, also lovingly known as "Daddy Cool." This is a joint venture between Ibrahim and his daughter Mona Kattan, in partnership with Kitopi.
Why Daddy Cool you ask? Ibrahim explains, “The name Daddy Cool started as a nickname given to me by my daughter, Mona. Her friends used to say, “Your dad is too cool to be just a normal dad, he’s a cool dad!” and it stuck.”
Cooking has always added warmth and joy to Ibrahim’s life, reflecting “One of my most cherished memories is watching my mother cook in our kitchen in Baghdad, never measuring, just cooking with instinct and love.”
After he left Iraq, far from home, on a very tight budget he had to creative, armed with the memories of his mother’s cooking. He began cooking without rules, just instinct, creativity, and a love for flavours that tell a story.
This philosophy is exactly what inspired Daddy Cool’s Kitchen “It’s all about celebrating bold, unexpected combinations and the joy of cooking without limits. For me, food is not just about following a recipe. It’s about creating something from the heart,” Ibrahim offers.
Daddy Cool’s menu is a celebration of flavours, featuring some of Iraq’s most beloved dishes, reimagined with Ibrahim’s creative flair. Signature highlights include Iraqi Dolma- a dish that plays homage to Iraq’s culinary heart. In addition, some well-known Iraqi dishes like the Tepsi Bethenjan, Biryani, Stew of Okra; eggplants; beans with rice, Samak-Masgouf and Pacha.
Daddy Cool’s Kitchen will be available for dine-in at Dubai Hill’s Eatopi, featuring as part of the Eatopi menu. It will also be accessible through Deliveroo and Talabat. Mona Kattan & Daddy Cool are launching this project together, in partnership with Kitopi, bringing this bold, flavourful experience straight to your doorstep.
For Ibrahim, Daddy Cool’s Kitchen is a deeply personal project. “I love making sure everyone is well-fed, happy, and taken care of. That’s the heart behind Daddy Cool’s Kitchen. At the end of the day, food isn’t just nutrition, it is comfort, it is community, and it’s love.”
