- Lebanese
cuisine is your passport to a gastronomic adventure.
Throughout history Lebanese cooking has ranked as an
equal alongside the world's finest cuisines, it has
evolved from the different and successive invasions with
each civilization and culture leaving its mark. These
include Romans, Ottomans, ancient Greeks, Arabs,
Egyptians, Persian and French. This probably explains
why Lebanese food is that bit more varied and refined
than that of its Middle Eastern neighbours.
|
Lebanese cuisine is
therefore a Mediterranean food of elegance, using, in
delectable combinations, simple and healthy ingredients.
It represents an important part of the rich and
turbulent history of this beautiful and bountiful
country.
The delicious arrays of the now world famous mezuzah,
offering light and refined servings, a delight to both
eye and palate, provide a style of eating perfectly
suited to today's health conscious individual All of
which makes Lebanese food most suitable for today's way
of life.
