Crumble & Fudge

Brownie cakes and cookie cakes from John-Naim Yazbeck, the guy who reviews Lebanon's food for a living.

Sixteen squares.
No dry corners.

The brownie cake: dense and fudgy, buried under shards of milk chocolate. $25 for the tray.

Or go gooey.

The cookie cake: golden, crisp at the edges, soft in the middle, with chunks of milk chocolate in every square. Also $25, or take both for $40.

I've tasted my way through 920-plus reviews across Lebanon. Somewhere in there I worked out what a great brownie should be, so I started baking my own.

I'm John-Naim Yazbeck, the face behind @johnyazbeckfood. It started with filming my honest reaction to whatever I was eating and turned into a full-time hunt for the best (and worst) food in the country. No scripts, no sugar-coating.

Crumble & Fudge is the standard I hold everyone else to: rich, chocolatey and properly fudgy, baked fresh to order.
