About
Founded in 1881, Hallab's grand Riad El Solh flagship, nicknamed Kasr el-Helou or the 'Palace of Sweets', is the most famous name in Tripoli's celebrated pastry scene. Come for hot knefeh at breakfast and trays of baklava, maamoul and halawet el-jibn to eat in or take home. There is a sit-down salon upstairs and a busy counter for boxes to go.
