Rule #1 at El Jannah: Respect the bread.

Fresh Lebanese bread, delivered daily and torn by hand. Soft, delicious and the reason not a drop of Toum (aka garlic sauce) goes to waste.

Krissy Marsh learned that on day one. Safe to say... she understood the assignment. 🫓🤝

Fresh Lebanese bread, made simply and made well.
