Chef Sam Hayek

Sam’s passion for food started in his mother’s kitchen in the north of Lebanon and evolved into a successful career managing cafes, catering, functions and consulting. He is driven by a love of good quality cuisine that brings joy to his customers, and families together.

​Everything produced by Grounds Keeper must pass Sam’s test – if he would proudly serve it to his family, he will share it with his customers.
​
Sam creates spaces and cuisine for all tastes. He draws inspiration from his Lebanese background to serve home-style classics, and has experience creating fine feasts, grazing tables and desserts to celebrate any occasion.
