Education

Known for
First Middle Eastern participant on Top Chef France
Born in Lebanon, Khattar's grandmothers taught her how to cook as a child.[2] One grandmother was from Aleppo, the other one from Achrafieh; they were both differently influenced by the cuisines of their home regions.[3] She studied for a BA in International Management of Culinary Arts at the Institut Paul Bocuse, graduating in 2013.[4] She subsequently worked at l’Atelier de Joël Robuchon Saint-Germain in Paris.[5] She then moved to New York to study for an MA in Food Studies at New York University.[5][6]
In 2018 she was the first person from the Middle East to participate in the television programme Top Chef France, when she joined the show.[7][8] This led to her describing her style of cookery as 'progressive Lebanese'.[1] She subsequently won the competition Chopped on Food Network twice.[7] In 2020 her first book, Liban, was published in French and Arabic.[7]
