Even though i lived and grew up in Lebanon, i really like Syrian food. This is the food i used to have at home since my mom is Syrian and she's a great cook. Many people think Syrian and Lebanese food are similar, they are not really. My mother cooks some traditional Syrian dishes that you only find in Syrian families. I got some of her recipes, and i really enjoy cooking them from time to time. It always get good reviews… My Moroccan sister-in-law has also taught me some of her recipes that I shared on shahiya; I think it is fun to exchange recipes with others and try new ones. Besides cooking I also enjoy eating :) and living in Beirut helps a lot in this! . Beirut restaurants are the best…. Favorite things to cook: Sayadieh and Lamb and Freeke
