Le Zyriab by Noura

Latin Quarter


Savour Lebanese gastronomy and a sensational view of Paris at this elegant restaurant on the 9th floor of the Institut du Monde Arabe. Be it fragrant vine leaves stuffed with tomato- and parsley-laced rice, traditional moussakaa (eggplant) or spicy sojok (lamb sausages), the menu tempts. Or nip in for afternoon tea and a sweet platter of syrupy baklawa or pistachio-stuffed karabige (shortbread biscuits).
