"Diners can spend hours perusing the aisles of Phoenicia Specialty Foods’s Downtown location. The brainchild of Lebanese immigrants Bob and Arpi Tcholakian, Phoenicia features a massive deli, shop, and cafe with 15,000 products from more than 50 countries. Take a break while shopping and eat. Phoenicia offers shawarma sandwiches with freshly baked pita and slow-roasted lamb, French pastries, boutique wines, imported beer, ice cream, and much more." - Marcy de Luna
