The inspiring story of Dar Omi Daouda
The story of Dar Omi Daouda was born from a passion for Tunisian spices and a desire to preserve an ancestral know-how. Leaving abroad at the age of 18, Fatma Hrigua always received packages from her mother filled with spices from her hometown, Nabeul. Curious and passionate, she began experimenting with these unique aromas, eventually creating her own blends. Upon returning to Tunisia, she decided to share her expertise by opening a space dedicated to harissa and traditional spices.
