Lebanese opulence at its finest. Olive oil-drizzled loubieh green beans, daffadeh garlic-marinated frogs legs and samboosek jebneh cheese pies are complemented by belly dancers. Mains and starters are very nice but desserts are phenomenally good. The zhoudel set (aka ladies wrist pastries) have a perfect rosewater custard filling. The alcoholic beverages on offer are astonishing – should you feel the need for Mouton Rothschild, Château Pétrus, Taittinger or a 1930s bottle of Johnny Walker in its original packaging (which will set you back $48,000), this is the place to go. Excellent, homemade orange blossom infused lemonade is on offer for younger brethren.
