It’s a common complaint among foodie expats that too few of the city’s Lebanese-owned businesses are restaurants. They usually follow that with a ‘but’, and the ‘but’ is usually Le Bouquet.
Situated on Labadi Road near Jokers, it’s a nice, spacious room with a surprisingly Mediterranean feel. Once staff got over having to start the evening’s service – arriving at around 7pm, we were the first party there – they were very attentive, and as time went on some Lebanese parties joined the tables of British and German diners, which speaks for the grub.
