  • Labneh Za'atar Eggs

    love the Labneh Zatar Eggs which have the right amount of salty, zesty flavour with the cheese pastry to dip the labneh. Scrumptious!

  • Almond Croissant

    The almond croissant is a must try. The almond part is different from other store with only sweety. Come in the morning and grabe a fresh croissant.
