Owner Nehme grew up in Lebanon. He discovered the richness of Lebanese cuisine during the daily walk home from school with his brother. In Bliss Street they were always amazed at all the goodies that the shops and restaurants had to offer. From those wonderful memories of his youth in Lebanon, Nehme takes you on a journey in Beiruti through the Lebanese culinary heritage, through a mix of street food and restaurant-level dishes in which you immediately taste the love for his roots. If you eat at Beiruti you will almost see the streets of Beirut come to life in the heart of Ghent. 

Don't just say restaurant to Beiruti's first floor because the unique experience there goes beyond the traditional restaurant concept. It feels a bit like eating in someone's living room, but one with beautiful high ceilings and orange and blue velvet sofas. Are you coming in a group? Then try to reserve the large round table and imagine yourself in a Lebanese paradise. To enhance the home dining feeling, there is no menu here either, so you can make your own selection downstairs or be surprised by the chef's menu. In no time the table will be full of deliciously smelling plates and bowls and Lebanon will suddenly be surprisingly close.
