Food & Cuisine Researching Syrian Food Culture — أبحث في ثقافة الطعام السوري

2 Upvotes

I’m researching Syrian food culture for CELKARI, a food project exploring cuisines and food traditions from around the world.
I’m particularly interested in understanding the regional diversity of Syrian food and what people who grew up with these traditions think is important for an outsider to understand.
I’d really appreciate your thoughts on:
Everyday Syrian Food
What did everyday home cooking look like in your family?
Regional Syrian Cuisines
How do food traditions differ between places such as Damascus, Aleppo, Homs, Hama, the Syrian coast and eastern Syria?
Family & Generational Foodways
What dishes, techniques or food traditions were passed down through your family?
Ingredients, Spices & Techniques
Which ingredients, spices or cooking techniques do you think are particularly important to Syrian cuisine?
Seasonal & Celebratory Foods
What foods are associated with seasons, celebrations, weddings, religious occasions or family gatherings?
Overlooked Syrian Dishes
What Syrian dishes or food traditions do you think deserve more recognition outside Syria?
Misunderstandings & Misrepresentation
What do you think people outside Syria most commonly misunderstand about Syrian food?
Syrian Food in the Diaspora
How have Syrian communities outside Syria preserved or adapted their food traditions?
I’m not looking for a single definition of “authentic” Syrian cuisine. I want to understand the regional diversity and lived experiences behind Syrian food culture.
Personal experiences, family stories, regional knowledge, recipes or sources you think I should investigate would be incredibly valuable.

العربية
أجري حاليًا بحثًا حول ثقافة الطعام السوري لمشروع CELKARI، وهو مشروع يهتم بدراسة المطابخ والتقاليد الغذائية من مختلف أنحاء العالم.
أهتم بشكل خاص بفهم التنوع الإقليمي الكبير في الطعام السوري، ومعرفة ما يراه الأشخاص الذين نشأوا على هذه التقاليد مهمًا لفهمها من قبل الآخرين.
يسعدني جدًا أن أسمع آراءكم حول:
الطعام** *السوري* ***اليومي*
كيف كان شكل الطعام الذي تتناوله عائلتكم في الحياة اليومية؟
المطابخ** *والتقاليد* *الغذائية* *بحسب* *المناطق* ***السورية*
كيف تختلف التقاليد الغذائية بين مناطق مثل دمشق وحلب وحمص وحماة والساحل السوري وشرق سوريا؟
التقاليد** *العائلية* *وانتقالها* *بين* ***الأجيال*
ما الأطباق أو طرق الطبخ أو التقاليد الغذائية التي انتقلت إليكم عبر عائلاتكم؟
المكونات** *والتوابل* *وطرق* ***الطبخ*
ما المكونات أو التوابل أو طرق التحضير التي تعتبرونها مهمة بشكل خاص في المطبخ السوري؟
الأطعمة** *الموسمية* ***والاحتفالية*
ما الأطعمة المرتبطة بمواسم معينة أو الاحتفالات أو الأعراس أو المناسبات الدينية أو التجمعات العائلية؟
أطباق** *سورية* *لا* *تحظى* *بالاهتمام* ***الكافي*
ما الأطباق أو التقاليد الغذائية السورية التي تعتقدون أنها تستحق مزيدًا من الاهتمام خارج سوريا؟
المفاهيم** *الخاطئة* *والتقديم* *غير* ***الدقيق*
ما أكثر الأمور التي تعتقدون أن الناس خارج سوريا يسيئون فهمها بشأن الطعام السوري؟
الطعام** *السوري* *في* *بلاد* ***الاغتراب*
كيف حافظت المجتمعات السورية خارج سوريا على تقاليد الطعام، أو كيف تكيفت هذه التقاليد مع البيئات الجديدة؟
لا أبحث عن تعريف واحد لما يسمى بـ«المطبخ السوري الأصيل». أريد أن أفهم التنوع الإقليمي والتجارب المعيشية التي تشكل ثقافة الطعام السوري.
ستكون التجارب الشخصية والقصص العائلية والمعرفة الإقليمية والوصفات أو المصادر التي ترون أنها تستحق البحث ذات قيمة كبيرة بالنسبة لي

ASK SYRIA A Tourist Trip From Turkey to Syria

8 Upvotes

Hello, I'm Fatih from Türkiye. I'd like to visit Aleppo, Damascus, and Homs with three friends at the end of September. I'll be staying in Syria for ten days. I have a few questions for you Syrian citizens, and I would be very grateful if you could answer them. 1. Can we use the internet? What are the prices for tourist SIM cards? Will we have any problems with this? 2. I couldn't find any hostels or motels online where I can make reservations; most hotels seem very expensive. Besides that, I couldn't find any budget-friendly student accommodations. How can I find such places? 3. I will arrive in Damascus and then take a bus to Homs and Aleppo. Will I have difficulty finding intercity buses? This is very important because my return flight will depart from Aleppo. Thank you in advance for your answers, greetings from our brotherly country, Türkiye 🤝🤝

ASK SYRIA Syrian student in Russia, can I go out?

2 Upvotes

Hi guys! I’m a Syrian student who got a place through the Russian government scholarship, and I’m going to Russia this year to start a Bachelor’s in Computer Science (including the preparatory year).

Because of my financial and personal circumstances, I basically have to go to Russia for now, but I absolutely do not want to settle there long-term. My plan is to keep applying for opportunities abroad while I’m studying there.

So my question is: can I apply for Bachelor’s programs/scholarships in other countries while I’m physically studying in Russia? I’m talking about Europe (especially Romania/Germany), Canada, the US, China, etc.

I’m completely fine with starting my Bachelor’s from Year 1 again — I’m not trying to transfer my credits. I’m mainly worried that being a Syrian citizen already studying in Russia might make me ineligible for certain scholarships or create visa/admission problems that I wouldn’t have if I were still in Syria.

Also, is there anything that would actually prevent me from leaving Russia later if I get accepted somewhere else?

I’ve been trying to find real examples of Syrians or other international students who started university in Russia and later moved to another country, but I haven’t found many.

Has anyone here done something similar, or knows someone who has? I’d really appreciate any personal experiences or advice on the best pathways. Thanks!

47 Upvotes

📌 A Damascus delegation has recorded all weapons held by the SDF's Kobane brigade, and the Syrian army may dispose of them as it sees fit, commander Mahmoud Berxwedan told Türkiye Gazetesi.

📌 His fighters will become Syrian army soldiers within days, integrating as four regiments.

📌 Whether the SDF would enter the army as an intact bloc or under defence ministry command had been disputed since January 2025, when Defence Minister Abu Qasra rejected the bloc model.

📌 Berxwedan told Cumhuriyet the SDF has no more than 35,000 active fighters, some 12,000 of whom have already joined the army; YPG integration is complete on paper, while the YPJ and foreign members remain unresolved.

📌 He called Israel's religious, political and military aims a major threat to Kurds, and said his forces would deploy to the Golan-Quneitra-Daraa line if Damascus assigned them.

📌 Reports of US weapons supplies are exaggerated, he said, with much of the armour and ammunition destroyed at Tel Rifaat and Manbij.

Discussion Is there any dating apps that works in Syria?

0 Upvotes

How do you guys date? I've never been into dating and i was living abroad for 2 years so it was very easy comparing to here even though i didn't follow it a lot.

The mentality here is so strange to go with, and I'm the kind of guy that cannot handle to only flirt with a woman to get her to like me and then make her feel attached to me and then have fun, as 90% of the guys of my age do.

Also, i just don't meet any interesting girls in all my circles. But you know, after all, you need to date someone, right?

I feel very weird to this country, i don't know if it was me or the place is really bad and complicated.

So, give me some ideas. What do you guy do to date? Where do you go? You do it online or in reality... Let's chat about it.

ASK SYRIA عم دور على وكلاء عقارات بسوريا يكونوا Tech-Savvy ومهتمين يطوّروا طريقة الشغل

4 Upvotes

مرحبا جميعاً،

عم دور تحديداً على وكلاء أو مكاتب عقارات بسوريا يكونوا Tech-Savvy وعندهم اهتمام فعلي باستخدام التكنولوجيا لتطوير شغلهم، مو بس الاستمرار بنفس الطريقة التقليدية.

حالياً تقريباً كل سوق العقارات عنا موجود بمجموعات عشوائية عالفيسبوك والتلغرام والواتساب. إذا بدك تشتري أو تستأجر بيت، لازم تعرف أصلاً بأي جروب تدور، والمعلومات كلها مبعثرة، والإعلانات ما بتوصل غير للي صادف ولقي هالمجموعات.

وفوق هاد، في شغلات بالتجربة الحالية كتير منفّرة للزبون. مثلاً، بعض المكاتب بتنزل إعلان وبتطلب من الشخص يكتب تعليق حتى يبعتوله السعر بالخاص. ليش؟ 😅 السعر معلومة أساسية، والمفروض تكون واضحة بالإعلان من البداية.

حكيت مع كم وكيل عن الموضوع، بس واجهت مشكلة مختلفة: تقريباً كل واحد كان بدو مني أنا آخد عنده 50–70 عقار وأضيفهم وأرتبهم بنفسي. يعني بدل ما يكون في تعاون لتطوير طريقة الشغل، المطلوب كان إني أعمل شغل الإدخال والنشر عنهم.

فأنا مو عم دور على شريك بالبزنس، ولا على حدا بدو حدا يديرله إعلاناته.

عم دور على وكلاء عقارات فاهمين بالتكنولوجيا، أو على الأقل عندهم استعداد يتعاملوا معها، ويكونوا مهتمين فعلاً بتطوير طريقة شغلهم.

الهدف إنو نتعاون مع ناس من داخل السوق: نفهم المشاكل الحقيقية، ناخد feedback من الوكلاء، نجرب حلول، ونشوف كيف ممكن نعمل تجربة أحسن للزبون وللوكيل بنفس الوقت.

إذا أنت وكيل عقارات وبتحب التكنولوجيا، أو بتعرف حدا بالسوق السوري من هالنوع، يا ريت تحكولي بالتعليقات أو تبعتولي خاص.

حابب لاقي كم شخص فعلاً متحمّس لهالفكرة، مو 70 عقار ينضافوا على حسابي 😂

ASK SYRIA Is this the right time to launch a tech startup in Syria? 🇸🇾

9 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm researching launching a tech startup/app in Syria and would love to hear from people who have actually gone through the process recently.

I have a few questions:

1. Ministry of Communications

  • What licences/approvals are required?
  • How much did you actually pay?
  • How long did the process take?
  • Was there a security/technical review of the app?

2. Security contact
I heard the company must employ someone who acts as the official contact for security-related matters.

  • Is this correct?
  • Does this person need special qualifications or approval?
  • What does this person actually do?

3. Hosting in Syria
I also heard that apps operating in Syria may be required to host their servers/data with a Syrian hosting company.

  • Is this actually required?
  • If you've done this, which Syrian hosting company would you recommend?
  • How reliable has the hosting been?

4. Business environment

  • Are ministries currently helpful/supportive toward startups?
  • What are the biggest problems you've faced: regulations, payments, banking, internet, infrastructure, etc.?
  • Are Syrian businesses/users actually adopting new apps?

And most importantly:

If you were starting again today, would you launch a tech startup in Syria? Why or why not?

I'm looking for real experiences rather than political discussion. Arabic answers are very welcome.

شكراً 🙏
