About Bayrut

A stunning, authentic and evocative cookbook on the food of Beirut - the heart of Lebanon. Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, is an exhilarating, chaotic city with a tumultuous past yet a thriving, vibrant foodie reputation.

In this book, Hisham Assaad shows you the best the city has to offer, with accessible, delicious recipes, ranging from the classics to more modern fare. He tells the story of a city with energy and diversity, of multiple cultures and traditions, with ever-popular street food, a thriving restaurant and café scene, and traditional family favourites handed down through generations.

With stunning food and travel photography, this book will transport you to the cultural melting pot that is Beirut - a city that excels at mouth-watering food.
