Burj Al Taybeh — Restaurant in Ras Beirut

The restaurant is on the ground floor level of the hotel with a large menu filled with local delicacies. It is called Fawzi with live "layali"/nights of Fawazi with a local musician J. Shmait If I were a big eater I would have chosen the buffet aka Maza that they had which is featured at a decent price, but I stuck to my little diet of salad aka Fatoush, which could use less of the lemon juice but the locals love their lemons and I yet to taste a really good lemonade, and I had a small order of Hindbeh, a cold dish too, a vegetarian dish. A must try. Fresh and very delicious. It is worth the price which is really not bad compared to fast food delivery prices. But when you do try out the oven baked Kibbe, an absolute treat. I would skip the yoghurts sauce, but have a side order of Baba Ghanoush/Mtabal with it and a fresh green salad. Sorry to report that some waiters have issues and dire need for HR counseling and a few courses in customer relations. It is a trait restricted not exclusively to this restaurant but it is a wide spread deficiency in the Lebanese service sector. The problem is that you would hear them complain about the lack or the scarce number of tourists. Hiring the local citizens/legal residents is a great idea and a big step forward. I am in total support of it. KUDOS.
