Safsouf has one of the best Knefe in Lebanon... the generosity is like nothing I've seen before in Beirut.

The Knefeh was in a normal piece of Kaaka and the bun was very well done, thin and not chewy, the perfect holder.

The Knefe at Karout is special, unique for many reasons... extraordinary because of its non salted cheese.
