Ichkhanian is a traditional Armenian Bakery and Catering located in Beirut and Zalka. The founder, Yeghia Ichkhanian's ultimate dream was to introduce the traditional Armenian culinary art to Beirut, and the journey began in 1946, when Yeghia opened a bakery in the neighborhood of Zokak El Blatt in the Lebanese capital. The founder’s will of preserving traditional culinary practices passed to his son, Jean Ichkhanian, who continued making delicious “lahmadjuns”, bread and “choereg” with the same enthusiasm as his father, earning the bakery an excellent reputation among Armenians and locals alike. Today, Ichkhanian Bakery has two branches: the Zokak El Blatt branch in Beirut managed by Azad Ichkhanian, and the Jal el Dib branch managed by Elie Ichkhanian, the son of Jean. For almost seven decades and counting, the neighboring streets of the Ichkhanian Bakery have been blessed with the delicious smell of “lahmadjun”. The goal of the bakery remains unshaken: to make great-tasting “lahmadjun” pastries that not only customers love, but also seek exclusively at Ichkhanian Bakery. There is no secret recipe, just a traditional pastry made with a lot of love, sizzled with a squeeze of lemon, and rolled to perfection for an unforgettable taste!
