Breakfast in Beirut


This morning we went for a traditional Lebanese breakfast. We had Markook. Basically, this is a large thin flat bread that is cooked on a domed metal griddle, called a saj. It can be served flat and topped with many things like thyme or cheese or can be served rolled up and stuffed with meats or yogurts. I had a traditional one with thyme and sesame seeds (delicious), while Chris went with the western version having his stuffed with Nutella and banana (also delicious and winner with Savannah!).
