Sawa - A Luncheon for Lebanon
On Sunday, April 12, we will organize a special lunch at Mokonuts with our friend Mariam from Sila.table. Together (Sawa!), we will cook a 7 course Lebanese meal to help affected families back home in Lebanon who have lost everything. It is a drop in the bucket but every donation helps.
All proceeds from this lunch will go entirely to @beitelbaraka , a Lebanon based non-profit community that works on the ground running shelters, providing hot meals and basic necessities to thousands of displaced families affected by the war.
Since space for the event is limited, we will also sell off the counter special cookies and t-shirts from noon until we sell out.
You can reserve directly on the Mokonuts website. After you scroll down and press “Reserve now”, a link will appear for the event.

Cooking in the middle of heavy days, in my parents kitchen in Beirut ♥️
In a country going through so much, the simple act of making food, setting a table, and feeding the people you love becomes something bigger.
This kitchen has seen everything: loud family lunches, quiet mornings, power cuts, celebrations, and difficult conversations. But the stove is still on, and we keep cooking.
Because here, food is not just food. It’s resilience, memory, and a way to hold on to each other when everything else feels uncertain.
Teta’s cake
Orange blossom tres leche, toasted coconut flakes, orange marmalade
Perfect way to end your iftar or meal.
Find this dessert at Sila’s iftar in collaboration with @b.beitaa next sunday, the 8th of March.
