Ah, the happiness and gourmandise of Lebanese cuisine! In Paris, some of the best Lebanese restaurants take our taste buds on a journey. And when it’s time for dessert or a snack, the expert is undoubtedly Bachir! Lebanese ice cream (and organic, if you please), freshness and authenticity… Bachir has been offering his expertise to gourmets since 1936 . In pots, tubs or cones… From Rambuteau to Montmartre, Bachir’s crunchy pistachio ice cream literally melts our hearts.
Bachir, Lebanese ice cream since 1936
It’s possible to spend a summer in Beirut without leaving the capital! Bachir is above all a beautiful family story. In the beginning, Maurice and Edouard Bachir created their company in 1936, in the pretty Lebanese village of Bikfaya. What is next? The two brothers married Marie-Antoinette and Yvette Bejjani, two sisters. As pretty things are made with a lot of love, the quartet starts concocting ice creams in the backyard of their shared home. And so begins the insanely gourmet story of Bachir, the Lebanese ice cream.
The best ice creams in Paris?
Today, Parisian gourmets love Bachir’s ice creams, to the point of waiting in the long queue. Because yes, the wait is worth it. The star of the establishment? Atcha 100% organic ice cream made with milk cream and orange blossom. Pistachio shavings coat the ice cream to complete this frosted sweetness.
