After three aborted attempts to sample the food of Lebanon, we finally made it to Paramount restaurant for lunch today. I have to say the food was delicious but now I am feeling rather overstuffed as it was very rich. I think a little goes a long way with Lebanese food.
Several people ordered the chicken shawarma but I chose the Veggie Lovers option which included hummus, falafels, an eggplant dip, roasted cauliflower and some other pickled and fried vegetables. Also arriving at the table were huge "balloons" of bread to share and use for scooping up the dip. Quite a novel way of eating. The meal ended with halvah brownies.
Just a bowl of soup and half a sandwich for dinner tonight!
Your patience paid off, the food sounds delicious. Hopefully the weather is improving and you can now move through the alphabet a bit quicker.

Good for you in finally getting to the tastes of Lebanon. My husband loves halvah and I try and purchase him some for a Christmas treat.
