Krikor – both the man and his bakery – are true legends of Baskinta. With nearly 60 years of experience and Armenian roots, Krikor has been baking with heart and precision in his cozy mountain bakery. Alongside his wife, he prepares the dough by hand, fills it with love, and transforms it into some of the best Manakish in Lebanon. This beloved flatbread, topped with olive oil and za’atar (thyme, sesame seeds, and sumac), is a cornerstone of Lebanese cuisine – simple, humble, and baked to perfection.

@tasteatlas presents Manakish at Krikor Bakery
📍Lebanon 🇱🇧

The Manakish is the heartbeat of the Lebanese morning, but in the mountain village of Baskinta, it is a legacy. Long before modern ovens standardized the process, village life revolved around the communal heat of the bakery. For sixty years, Krikor—a baker of Armenian descent—has been the guardian of this ritual, transforming simple dough into a landmark of regional identity.
The mastery lies in the touch. Alongside his wife, Krikor personally handles every stage, from the initial kneading to the precise roll that creates the perfect canvas for toppings. It is a labor-intensive craft where experience dictates the thickness and the brick oven provides the soul, charring the edges while keeping the center soft enough to fold.
While the world recognizes the classic Za’atar—a fragrant, earthy blend of wild thyme, sumac, and toasted sesame swirled in olive oil—the Manakish is a versatile vessel. You’ll find versions topped with Akkawi, a salty, unripened cheese that bubbles and stretches under the heat, or Lahm bi Ajeen, where minced meat is pressed into the dough to create a savory, protein-packed fuel.
Krikor and Laure in Baskinta, a legacy in the Lebanese manakish scene. It’s 20min from Faqra or a bit longer from Faraya but so worth the visit. They didn’t have electricity for the past 3 weeks but they use fresh ingredients on a daily basis, we had cheese, eggs, awarma, lahm hi ajeen- the best! A friend went yesterday and said that unfortunately they were closed as they were unable to find flour. 💔 #lebanon #krikorbakery #krikobaskinta #baskinta #discover
