The dough
Every morning we knead flour, water, yeast and a drizzle of oil. It rests, then gets stretched by hand, disc by disc.
Fast · Fresh · Lebanese — Navigli, Milan
Authentic Lebanese man’oushe, baked fresh in the heart of Milan.
Dough made fresh every day, topped to order and baked until the edges turn golden. Zaatar, labneh, spiced meat or — why not — Nutella and banana. We bring the flavours of Beirut to Via Pietro Custodi 1, a short walk from the Darsena.
What is a manoucé
What is a manoucé?
Manoucé (man’oushe, مناقيش) is Lebanon’s street breakfast: a hand-stretched disc of dough, topped and baked until the edges turn golden. It’s eaten hot, folded or rolled, at any hour of the day.
In Beirut the bakeries pull them from the oven at dawn. We do the same on Via Pietro Custodi: fresh dough, toppings prepared daily, baked to order and zero compromises.

Sixty five-star reviews and one four-star. Not bad for a bakery that opened in June.
A small, clean and well-kept place, ideal for eating in or taking away. I tried manoucé for the first time: an Arabic flatbread topped with meat or vegetables, sauces and spices.
Authentic Lebanese manoucé in Milan. Warm, welcoming staff.
An exceptional homemade Lebanese manoucé. On holiday from Australia we were craving the flavours of home and were welcomed warmly with a delicious meal and great company.
