Village Vibes and Oven-Fresh Breakfast at Madaya’s Khalti Um Basel

And if you’re craving that kind of heartwarming breakfast, there’s only one place to go: Khalti Um Basel’s Restaurant in Madaya. It’s where the food’s real, the air’s clean, and the vibes are straight out of the village.

That Bread Though…

Manakish You’ll Dream About

The manakish at Khalti Um Basel Restaurant? Unreal. Think za’atar, cheese, muhammara, kashkaval, mortadella, labneh, shanklish, and yes… even chocolate. They also mix it up with crazy good combos like kashkaval with za’atar or muhammara. Everything’s baked on the spot and hits your table fresh and hot.
