We have just found the best bakery in LA!

My mom has been encouraging me to go to Old Sasoon Bakery, 1132 North Allen Street, in Pasedena since we arrived in town, but we didn’t have the time, that is until today…and oh, what an amazing place it is!  The owners, Anush and Harout, were neighbours and close friends of my mom’s back in Aleppo and they have kept in touch ever since.   They have been in LA for over 30 years now, operating this bakery…you must visit it if you are in town! The minute you enter in, you are captivated by the delicious aroma of fresh bread, bouregs, lahmajoun, manaish and other Middle Eastern delicacies…  and Anush and Harout are the sweetest most gracious people I have ever met!  They were so excited to meet me and shared some of their memories growing up with my mom, aunts, uncles and grandparents…  and they gave me mouth watering treats to sample… oh, how amazing!!

You must stop by and purchase something, anything from them…  Old Sasoon Bakery… my husband and I have decided that we need one in every city!
