Lazizah Bakery is a hidden jewel of cafe located in quaint Yantic Village at the northern end of Norwich, Connecticut. This eight-year-old spot serves authentic Lebanese and Mediterranean dishes made with the best ingredients and fresh vegetables from local, mostly organic farms. Their healthy and nutritious soups and fresh breads made every day from scratch are legendary. Lebanese native Iffat Salahi uses family recipes to produce delicious falafel, tabbouleh, baba ghannuj, and other Middle Eastern traditional dishes in her tiny bakery and market. Try the chicken and sweet potato soup flavored with chipotle, it will warm your soul, but do not leave the place without at least one piece of the baklava. Layers upon layers of flaky, transparent-thin phyllo sheets hold combinations of nuts and sweet syrups and every Mediterranean country has its own special kind. You will have to try them all to know for sure which one you like best.
