As soon as you step inside Man’oushée Mediterranean Bakery and Café, it is clear that you are not in a typical bakery in Santa Clarita.  The smells of Lebanese -Armenian savory and sweet treats fill the air and transport you halfway around the world.  The food is fresh; everything is prepared from scratch every single morning and baked in their one of a kind brick oven.  Owner Maral Sabounjian, take great pride in the food and service that she provides.  “Owning this bakery is more than just a job for me; it’s about passing down traditions as well as introducing the food and a part of my culture to those who have never experienced it before,” says Maral.
Her love for cooking and baking definitely shines through in her delicious creations. See for yourself; try her signature za’atar pie, a Vegetarian/Vegan wild thyme pesto mix .  Stop by for lunch and enjoy the delectable hummous or tabouleh, a Lebanese salad made with parsley, cracked wheat, tomatoes, olive oil and lemon juice.  Try the Lahmajune (Armenian pizza) or maybe a Beef Shawerma wrap (tender sliced steak marinated in authentic Lebanese spices, wrapped and baked in their fluffy signature dough) or the best falafel in town made from fresh ingredients.  Why not pick up dinner plates to-go on your way home?
The Lebanese wedding cookies and the baklava with the eggless custard are sure to please your palate and make for a delicious ending to your meal.  Man’oushée is also building a reputation for providing outstanding catering, so next time you need some help with hosting a fantastic dinner party or event, don’t hesitate to ask Maral to cater!
