'Ali Baba' is an oriental restaurant and a great place for any meal of the day.

Ali Baba is a restaurant which I'm very fond of. I have great confidence in this restaurant as most of its clientèle is Lebanese, or better said, oriental... This is a great quality assurance for most of us.

At Ali Baba, one can find most of the common dishes like 'Baba Ghanoush', 'Tabuleh Salad', 'Humous' and so on.

Prices at Ali Baba's are great, I mean, pretty affordable. For only € 10, you can have a real meal including a drink. If you are on the run, just place the order and have a complimentary tea while waiting. In ten minutes you'll be on your way with everything nicely packed.

I highly recommend 'Lahmagiun' which is only € 2 and of course you will have a free tea with it.

It is a busy city which offers many opportunities. I’m passionate about observing old...
