Hanna Mitri Ice Cream: Beirut's Finest Booza. Authentic and Traditional
#icecream #beirut #traditionalicecream #bouza #booza
I truly doubt that all Lebanese people don't know or have not heard of Hanna Mitri. The one and only Hanna Mitri known for his uniquely fresh ice cream, perfect Maamoul and arrogantly rude character. Following his steps is his son Mitri Hanna, the sole carrier of this legend's recipes. I spent two whole hours tasting what I can safely say is the best ice cream in the world. So if you think you’ve had good ice cream before; trust me, you haven’t until you’ve tasted Hanna Mitri’s Middle Eastern ice cream in Achrafieh.

The original Arabic booza ice cream
Levantine ice cream - or Booza - has been enjoyed by people in the Middle East for more than a century.
In Damascus the parlour that claims to have invented the dessert is visited by hundreds of people daily who form large queues to get a taste of their favourite treat.
Amid the hustle and bustle of the al-Hamiddiyah Souq in Damascus hundreds gather daily to tuck into a special treat - ice cream.
But the ordering frenzy at the Bakdash ice cream parlour isn't just for ordinary ice cream - it's for Booza - an Arabic speciality that originates from the Levantine.
Made with milk, lashings of cream and smothered with pistachio nuts, this humble delicacy is now enjoyed world wide and is a must have for anybody in Damascus.
The Damascene Syrian ice cream has become one of the most traditional aspects of Damascus. Visitors and tourists from all around Syria and the Arab world come to Damascus and specifically to al-Hamidiyya souq to taste the original Arabic booza (ice cream). It has become tradition that people who visit Damascus or the al-Hamidiyya Souq have to visit Bakdash and try the original Booza of Bakdash, says Jamal, who works at the Bakdash ice cream parlour.
The owners say that even with more than three and a half years of civil war in Syria, business hasn't been hugely affected.
The secret is in the making of Booza.
Just the right amounts of milk and cream are combined before the mixture is pounded to the right consistency with large wooden mallets.
Ice cream specialists have been making Booza here at Bakdash for almost 130 years. Established in 1885, the ice cream parlour is the oldest in the city.
And although history cites that iced desserts combining snow, fruit and honey were enjoyed by the Romans as far back as A.D. 54, owner, Samir Bakdash claims that both Booza and traditional western style ice cream were invented by his family at the parlour.
Arabian Booza was first made here at the Bakdash Parlour in al-Hamidiyya souq. We established the industry of Arabian Booza. Western style ice cream was also established here in our parlour, and then it was exported all over the world from our shop.
There are many claims to the invention of what is arguably one of the world's best loved desserts - some say the Romans - others ancient China. Some versions go as far back as the Persian Empire more than 2,500 years ago.
What's for certain is the Booza here at Bakdash is adored by pretty much everybody who tries it.
The most delicious ice cream in the world. They have spent a hundred years making the best Booza in the Levant and all of Syria, says one client.
All people from all over Syria come to Bakdash parlour to eat the most wonderful Booza, says another.
And at between USD $1 and $2 a bowl, it's a treat that's within reach.

Кто хочет САМОЕ ВКУСНОЕ МОРОЖЕНОЕ В МИРЕ?
Да да. Кафе Hanna ice cream в Бейруте занимает второе место в списке Forbes.
________________________________________________
Адрес: Ливан, Бейрут, Achrafieh Mar Mitr Street
_______________________________________________
Вид у кафе настолько непримечательный, что пройти мимо можно не задумываясь. Пара потертых столов, прилавок и пожилая семейная пара, которая много десятилетий подряд делает мороженое вручную. Кафе больше 50 лет, и все это время ее держит одна и та же семья, рецепты и оборудование не менялись тоже.
Здесь делают традиционное арабское мороженое на молоке, без яиц и сливок, загущенное удивительным ингредиентом под названием салеп — растертыми в порошок клубнями диких орхидей. В них содержится глюкоманнан, благодаря которому мороженое получается тягучим как тесто (собственно, его и замешивают как тесто). В мороженом нет никаких искуственных добавок, да и в принципе точно так же делали мороженое и сто, и пятьсот лет назад.
