The Forgotten 2Original artwork by MARWAN KAROUT Acrylic on Canvas, 100 x 70 cm Kaak is a traditional Lebanese thick bread that is coated with sesame seeds. Theyre baked into a teardrop shape with a whole in the middle from which theyre hung on the wooden dowels of the carts from which theyre sold by street vendors. The cries of the mobile street vendors are almost as distinctive as the foods they sell especially on the beach.
