Lebanese cuisine is considered excellent across the world. Lebanese diaspora thoroughly commits itself and fits right into all countries. But often enough, emigrants miss their homeland’s sun and grandma’s recipes.

Besides, Lebanese villages abound of culinary treasures that might disappear in the mists of time. As a result of war, but also rural exodus, recipes get lost, and the culinary traditions as well. Because of the economic situation, people, especially youngsters, are leaving their own towns and then the country.

Whereas... if they believe in it, they can revive the unique lands that they possess.
