About

Chef Philippe Massoud's concept was to revive and bring ancient Lebanese cuisine to a public who hadn’t properly experienced it, drawing on three generations of family stories and 100 years of outstanding hospitality. He was inspired to introduce New Yorkers to authentic Lebanese-Mediterranean food after finding store-bought hummus and pita pockets to be poor representations of the real thing.story
