BEIRUT SUR MER

Tickling the sand on Saadiyat Island, a stone's throw from the Louvre Abu Dhabi, is Lebanese cuisine in an airy atmosphere. The menu is teeming with a myriad of salads and mezze as well as grilled meats with iconic flavors. We recommend the "lahm mechwi" - fillet with walnuts and tomatoes - and the kreydes with shawarma croquettes. And if you're still hungry, the Beiruty millefeuilles - with their heavenly hint of orange blossom - are as "Instagrammable" as they are delicious. One of the best new restaurants in Abu Dhabi.
