A culinary adventure

Lukma, which means 'a bite of food' in Arabic, is a culinary project offering authentic Lebanese dishes for gastronomic explorers. We use fresh Italian ingredients and Lebanese artisanal products to bring you exquisite flavors. For us, food connects people and cultures through exchanged stories. Our bites will transport you to exciting places and indulge you in new flavors.

Lukma, لقمة

The variety found in our cuisine reflects the region's sunny climate and long history. The ideal climate nurtures an array of vegetables, fruits, legumes, spices, and herbs that bring wholesomeness to our vegan and vegetarian dishes. Centuries of cultural exchange have further enriched Lebanese cuisine, resulting in a fusion of flavors.

Food tastes better when shared, and a Lebanese meal embodies a way of living: we share, engage, and exchange stories and ideas at the table. Ultimately, it's about fostering human connections.

About us

We are a Lebanese-Italian couple united by our love for culture and food. Our journey began when we moved to Milan in 2021 and had a hard time finding Lebanese food.

This inspired us to launch Lukma, a culinary venture dedicated to bringing the true flavors of Lebanon to every household in Italy. Our goal is to introduce the rich gastronomic legacy of Lebanon to our community through genuine culinary experiences.

At the helm of Lukma are Giovanni and Kristel. Giovanni hails from Bireh, a Lebanese village famous for its olive groves, where he developed a deep connection to the land and its bounty. Kristel, on the other hand, studied culinary arts in Milan, which intensified her passion for creating delightful food experiences.

We are thrilled to invite you to savor the vibrant tastes and aromas of Lebanese cuisine with us.
