Why I Started Petites...

Why I Started Petites Choses

September 22, 2025pub

My kids recently asked me why I started Petites Choses more than 17 years ago, I think I did as an extension of me, of my being. A way to connect and grow.

I’m super happy and proud to feature in the @myfoodstoryglobal recipe book with some exceptional chefs and home cooks from more than 40 countries, many of them I am blessed to call my friends.

The book is about how food- once again- connects, bridges gaps and tells stories.
Do what you love- love what you do.

About Yasmine

Hello! My name is Yasmine Idriss Tannir, I am from Beirut, Lebanon. I am originally a Graphic Designer, graduated in 2002 from the American University of Beirut.
Dubai has been our home since 2007.

As a child, cooking and food meant family and friends gathering around a table, laughing and chatting for hours. I think this is what instilled the passion for cooking and baking in me.
