What the creator captured
Mark Wiens was deeply impressed by the culinary depth of Aleppo, describing it as a city where traveling for food originally began. He particularly enjoyed the Mamonia, noting how the sweet semolina porridge perfectly contrasted with the salty local cheese. Throughout the experience, he marveled at how the city's 8,000-year history and its position on the Silk Road created one of the world's most diverse food cultures.
