On the Hunt for a Crunchy, Loaded Panini? Check Out This New Panini House in Lebanon

Getting bored of traditional sandwiches? A Lebanese person’s go-to is typically one of those that are men 3omor ahelna, but oftentimes, we want to change things up. Luckily, a new panini house just opened in Lebanon, and they’re serving up the crunchiest loaded paninis.

Sando Panini House is filling the gap in our appetite that we didn’t know we had, and that’s loaded bites that could make your lunch breaks at work a hundred times more bearable.

What sets the panini apart from the average pressed sandwich is its use of freshly-baked Italian bread, stuffed with savory (or even sweet) fillings and pressed until perfectly crisp on the outside.

Our Top Picks

Though their menu includes some classic options, we wanted to spotlight some picks that we think Lebanese people would absolutely love.

If you want something that tastes like home, you need to try:

Smashed kafta — a perfectly seasoned smashed kafta, topped off with tomatoes, pickles, mayo, and spicy tomato sauce.

Fries Sando — reminiscent of the iconic Lebanese fries sandwich. It’s a simple panini with golden fries, coleslaw, ketchup, and mayo.

If you want something a little different:

Aioli Grilled Chicken — (our favorite) it’s both light and filling because of the generous amount of roasted chicken, lettuce, pickles, and the drizzle of their in-house made aioli sauce. Think a classic djej but better!

Philadelphia Steak — a mouthwatering steak mix topped with a melted layer of Swiss cheese, doused in a rich Philly sauce and some mayo.

Everything on their menu is a must-try, but we thought we’d show you our top picks so that you have an easier time choosing.

No dessert?

They actually have a few sweet options in case you’re not in the savory mood.

When you’re craving something extra sweet, go for their White Chocolate Nutella or Pistachio Nutella. Probably big enough to share, but you’ll want it all to yourself.

Perfect for…

Those days when you need something quick but don’t want to settle for a sad desk lunch.

The paninis travel well, making them ideal for grabbing on the go, taking back to the office, or enjoying between classes when you need a proper meal to power through the rest of the day.

They’re also great for road trips, busy errand days, or those moments when you’re craving something more exciting than your usual sandwich order.

Crispy on the outside, loaded on the inside, and easy to eat without making a mess, they’re the kind of meal that fits into just about any schedule.

You can order via Toters to multiple locations across Lebanon. For more information, make sure to check out Sando Panini House on Instagram. For more content like this, browse the #Foodies section on our website.
