Since 1958, this famous spot has been serving Armenian-style sausage, pastrami, and roast beef sandwiches using the same recipes that made it a local favorite. One bite, and you&#8217;ll know why people still line up for it.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Address: Damascus \u2013 Al-Salihiya \u2013 Al-Shuhada.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For contact: 963113312549<\/p>    <div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>    <h2 id=\"h-2-abu-shakir-juice\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/abushakirjuice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Abu Shakir Juice<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>    <div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>   <iframe title=\"Embedded Instagram Post\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"532\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DaF3413RNBl\/embed\/\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"background: white; max-width: 540px; width: calc(100% - 2px); border-radius: 3px; border: 1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219); box-shadow: none; display: block; margin: 12px 0px 12px !important; min-width: 326px; padding: 0px;\"><\/iframe>   <div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A visit to Al Salhiyah wasn&#8217;t complete without a stop at Abu Shakir.
