LA TABLE LIBANAISE

Large glazed windows illuminate the walls in clear yellow and heated by a mahogany floors and panelling. In summer, you relax under the olive trees. If the setting is deliberately sober with beautiful tablecloths and white towels, highlighted with small Phoenician touches and some old photos of Beirut, the menu is a true discovery of the Middle East's dishes and flavours. The culinary repertoire is well-mastered, the quality always remains the same, in short the rendezvous is gastronomic without bad surprise when the bill arrives. Tasty homemade falafels and Hommos Belahme (chickpea cream, pan-fried lamb meat, onions) for the warmups. On the menu, alongside the traditional Chiche Taouk (skewers of chicken breast marinated in lemon, garlic and olive oil), we will find frogs fried with garlic, coriander and lemon or a grilled Kafta, homemade tomato sauce with Eastern spices. Menus for all hungers are offered, the lunch menu offers excellent value for money with hummus, followed by a Chiche Taouk (chicken marinated in lemon juice) or a chawarma (lamb meat) and Lebanese pastries. The chef's suggestion for 4 people includes 4 cold starters, 4 hot ones, 2 mixed skewers per person, a range of baklawas and a bottle of Lebanese wine. A great majority of the dishes of the menu are also offered to take away. Loukoums, Baklawas and Molhalabia (flan with milk and orange blossom water) will necessarily be part of the journey. The staff is very friendly and the service is perfect.
