RECIPE – Riz bi Haleeb (Lebanese Rice Pudding)

A comforting and scrumptious Lebanese desert, Riz bi Haleeb adds aromatic flavours to the universal rice pudding. This recipe uses Jasmine rice, as well as a combination of rose water and orange blossom water for distinctly Lebanese flavours.

Tawle (طاوله) – Traditional Lebanese Board Game

Tawle (meaning “table”) is a traditional Lebanese boardgame which has been played for centuries and has long held a significant place in Lebanese history, culture and identity. In recent years, there has been a resurgence and new appreciation of Tawle particularly in younger generations both in Lebanon and the Lebanese diaspora of the western world notably in Australia and America.
