Bread Republic Beirut

Bread heaven

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

My friend called me and told me "I found the perfect place for you! Meet me at Bread republic in Achrafieh". I head there -- it's a hidden place in the heart of Achrafieh, you'd think it's small until you step inside and it's actually quite the place.

Let's start with the decoration that gives a farm/fresh feel with pumpkins everywhere, fresh bread and its smell as well... everything looks delicious! You can choose whether to sit at the bar with a street view or inside at the tables. It's also a house of wine, with a menu of either local or international wines, and let me tell you one thing: they have the best options!

I went for bruschetta pomodoro -- well, you gotta try the bread at a place that has the word "bread" in their name -- and a pizza vegetarian and a green salad. All to share. Everything was made to perfection, with the helpful waitress that made the experience even better. Let's not forget the desserts that were heavenly!
