Chef Charbel: "So I made here a Lebanese flag because I want to use this platform to send a message to the whole world, because right now, in the history of Lebanon, this is the worst time the Lebanese people go through. I wanted to use flavors inspired from Za'atar man'ouche. This sauce inside, please pour it all over it. The filo, I made it look like a tree because on our flag, it's a tree. So use this filo, please, and scrub the whole place.
Padma Lakshi: "It's playful and fun."
