Chapter · Tradition
A dessert for sharing, brought to Lyon
In Lebanon, baklava is never served alone. It closes a meal made for sharing, brought to the table with coffee or tea, often within an assortment of sweets. It is as much an everyday dessert as a festive one, picked at together and drawn out in conversation.
To build a true Lebanese meal, let the baklava follow an assortment of our cold mezze and a dish of grills. The baklava then arrives as a sweet, fragrant note that closes the journey.
Signature pastry
Pistachio baklava, layer by layer
Among our sweets, baklava holds pride of place. Everything comes down to the layering: filo sheets so thin they turn translucent, brushed with butter one by one, then stacked around a filling of chopped nuts. After baking, a fragrant syrup is poured over the still-warm pastry: it seeps into the layers and creates that unique contrast between crisp and melting.
It is rarely eaten alone: a Lebanese coffee, a tea, and gladly a spread of pastries to share. Enjoy it in our dining room at 38 rue du Dauphiné, as takeaway with Click & Collect or delivered in Lyon via Uber Eats and Deliveroo.
