Beirut, Lebanon

Everyone says, dreamily, "it's the Paris of the Middle East." It's not. Beirut is its own funky animal: tense, beautiful, cracking with growth, assaulted by civil strife, graffitied with advertising for Starbucks and Applebees and perfumes from Paris, but without jobs for women, without futures for the young people bristling with university degrees.
Barbar Bakery

Open 24-hrs., Barbar is the place the locals go everyday for breakfast, lunch, dinner and after the club. It's THAT good.

Since 1983, Barbar has been serving excellent Lebanese street/fast food on Barbar Spears Street in the popular Hamra district of Beirut, Lebanon.
