The season of Maamoul has arrived, but don’t you fret since we’ve compiled a list of our favourite places to get Maamoul in Lebanon (that’s not made by your mom, because, of course, your mom’s Maamoul is undoubtedly awesome)!
1. Hilwayat al Salam (Hanna Mitri)
A hidden gem in Achrafieh, Hanna Mitri makes mouthwatering maamoul using a very traditional recipe and high quality ingredients. Of course, you can’t not have a scoop or two of their iconic ice cream.
2. Patisserie Chidiac

These are a favorite! Located in Wadi Shahrour, these small but mighty bites of heaven will keep you coming back for more. Our favorite is the bitter orange flavor.
3. Safsouf Sweets
Famous for their iconic knefeh, this Tarik el Jdeedeh gem also makes to-die-for maamoul. Be sure to check it out!
4. La Cigale
Massive buttery and delicious, that is how we describe the delectable maamoul at La Cigale!
