The highlight of my time at khamsa ♥️

My Amto Hajjar (who taught me to cook) and Amto Khadejah visiting the cafe from Jordan, just a coincidence they were here for my sister’s wedding.

It was a joy spending time with them and getting to enjoy home cooked meals, and sharing recipes and being in the arms of those who came together apart of the village and raised you and made you who you are.

Living abroad is one of the hardest parts of life, a feeling like you are ripped from your natural home, from your family, culture and traditions. It’s an honour to have them visit.

I couldn’t have closed without them seeing what they inspired in me ♥️ a moment I will cherish forever.

Dear friends,

This Sunday, January 19, will mark Khamsa’s final day. After 8 years of serving our community, we were unable to reach an agreement with the landlord of our new location in St Peters. This chapter of Khamsa is coming to an end but our story and what we stand for will continue.

Khamsa has always been more than a eatery. Every dish and every drink we served was a piece of Palestine, a connection to our roots, history, and spirit. In a time when our family in Gaza is enduring unimaginable suffering, and being massacred and ethnically cleansed, sharing our food has been an act of resistance. It is a reminder that even under the weight of vile oppressors, our identity lives on through the flavors, traditions, resilience and an everlasting hope for a free Palestine.

We want to thank our incredible suppliers, Stitch Coffee, Frutique, and Abu Salim, for standing by us. Our partnership was a cornerstone for our success.

To our remarkable staff, past and present, thank you for the dedication and heart you poured into Khamsa. You made this place a home for so many. If you need staff who are committed and super star at what they do please reach out to us as we would love to see them with new secure jobs to start next week!

To our community, thank you for your love and support. You turned Khamsa into a gathering place, a source of connection, and a beacon of Palestinian culture.

As we close our doors, we feel it’s important to shed light on the challenges small businesses like ours face. Without meaningful government support, places like Khamsa are increasingly at risk. We hope this sparks conversations about the need to protect the diversity and identity that small businesses bring to our communities.

We invite you to join us one last time before we close, to share a meal and honor what Khamsa has stood for.

Together, we will carry forward the spirit of Palestine, the strength of our people, and the stories that no landlord or system can take away.

Long live Palestine

Sarah and the Khamsa family

as you celebrate a Palestinian man, who sacrificed for us, think of his descendants who are being slaughtered by the illegitimate state of Israel. We are going on to 2025 apartheid South Africa was wrong apartheid Israel is even more unconscionable. We have access to the internet and truth telling journalists on the ground in Gaza and the West Bank. If you haven’t opened your eyes to the cruelty of empire and state you are just as guilty as those immoral IOF SOLDIERS PARADING THEIR GENOCIDAL SADISTIC PSYCHOTIC CRIMES.
