I am a vegetarian and going to a Lebanese diner is never an issue: half of the mezze does not contain meat or poultry, and several dishes are even vegan.

My friend got the chicken sandwich which he said was delicious, while I enjoyed the Bruvs pasta, which was creamy, cheesy, and simply yummy!

The menu is diversified with not only hearty salads but also tartines, sandwiches, soups, desserts, and sweet bowls. One of my favorites is the Acai bowl.

"Hanna Mitri" in Beirut is all about the ice cream. It's existed since 1949 and it's the only place in the city that has people queuing up outside it...

"Beirut's Ex-Abandoned Mansion" is now a vibrant community for artists and a workspace in one of the city's oldest areas. I love its vintage feeling...

"Bread Republic" in Beirut has amazing fresh bread and divine bruschetta... Heavenly desserts too. Everything's simply made to perfection here...
