Fails WP:GNG and clearly not meeting with WP:NPOV. The content has been written in advertising format and the article has bare URLs which are prone to link rot. The author has also failed to mention the nationality of the person. Abishe (talk) 02:03, 26 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails WP:GNG and certainly fails WP:ENTERTAINER. With respect to the existing sources, the Thrive Global article is community-written, the MTV Lebanon coverage appears to be a video segment featuring Abboud (as opposed to about him) (I say "appears to be" as I am unable to access the source), Medium is not a reliable source, the Stepfeed article is written by a contributor, Beforeitsnews is not a reliable source, and the harvard.edu references appear to be dead links to a portfolio hosted on exed.canvas.harvard.edu—thus these sources are ineligible for establishing notability. I consider the An-Nahar article [1] eligible for consideration under GNG. Even giving the article the benefit of doubt that the al-akhbar source is reliable, the section about Abboud is only a single paragraph among a list of food-bloggers—still not enough for GNG. userdude 01:23, 6 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as likely paid-for spam. I've blocked the creator for this. MER-C 17:09, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
