The traditional lebenease food of Em sherif. As I have mentioned in the caption, the restaurant began small in Beirut and opened up to many branches across Lebense and In DUBAI. The Restaurnat only offers a seated menue, they basically give you everything until your full. One of the best. Amazing desserts and highly recommend it to all especially on a Friday lunch or on Saturday for dinner.

All the food served are great. Hummus, fattoush and tabbouleh are must to try. The rest will make you totally full. You can not finish it all. Typical and one of the best Lebanese food.
