Brasserie Lebanese Restaurant

We were supposed to have Turkish for dinner, but apparently the shop was closed for decoration/renovation, so after hunting about, we chanced upon a Lebanese restaurant just up across the street, so we decided to try our luck there at Brasserie



Location: Within Stanmore, just a few blocks away from our apartment







Setting: A nice Lebanese feel to it, with a verandah outside to smoke bong, though they kinda have this annoying song playing in a loop

Le menu

Their bottled water, or stilled water as they call it in London

Random sauce shot

Some kind of meat snack wrapped in edible leaves


Lebanese bread with the humus to go with it

Lebanese currypuffs, apparently

Chicken wings, sorta

Chicken chunks with Lebanese bread and salad

Lamb cutlets

Lamb shanks with fried Lebanese rice and sauce

Chicken wings with rice and salad

Ocra stew with rice

Long bean stew with rice

Fries for the kids

One of the many Lebanese desserts, which is almost like a flaky spring roll, but sweet
It was a very filling meal, though my ocra stew could use a little bit of crunch into it. It's made into stew so much that went I bite into the ocra (which is one of my fav vegs btw), it just went splat in my mouth and the slight gooey crunch to it was not there. But still, it's a nice taste to it. Never thought that ocra could be made into stew.

The only off-putting part would be the song that they played in a constant loop somehow, but it was no big. The atmosphere was pretty relaxing, and you just feel like you wanna lay back and relax, and watching the people smoking their bong at the verandah outside the dining area was also an interesting experience

Overall rating: 7/10
