Incorporating only natural, earthy ingredients, your typical dining  experience of Lebanese country grills is forever changed at Zahr El Laymoun. This is expertly demonstrated in the way an herbal addition of thyme is infused in the flavors of the succulently grilled beef cutlets and how the minced meat Kafta is enriched with roasted pistachios. Desserts offer a bounty of local Lebanese flavors like Tart el Khalil and the Mini biscuit cake which includes a mixture of Lebanese chocolate and praline biscuits, all compressed together to deliver the rich, unforgettable texture of biscuit meets chocolate. Along with a pot of freshly brewed Turkish coffee, you’re ensured a transient dining experience that leaves your mind soothed and your tummy satisfied.
