Nestled in the small village of Yantic is a Middle Eastern gem. Lazizah Bakery has been serving the community for over 20 years, earning widespread recognition in Norwich despite its quiet location. This is a reflection of the warmth and passion of it’s husband and wife team. One with exceptional baking skills and the other with enough enthusiasm to infect their customers. Among the more than 30 locally owned restaurants that call Norwich home, Lazizah stands out, not only as one of just two Middle Eastern eateries in the area, but as the only Mediterranean and Middle Eastern bakery. Small but mighty, this cozy spot brings fresh, delicious dishes rooted in traditions from thousands of miles away to residents across southeastern Connecticut.
