What You Will Do
Join your host Tania for an authentic Lebanese meal in her welcoming home, and experience the country's culture and cuisine through a local's eyes. Tania lives in a traditional, modest home with an old world charm. She has immense knowledge about Lebanese food and ingredients and is more than happy to share it with you!
After you chat with Tania and her family, your meal will be served in the dining room, which has a lovely vibe thanks to Tania’s piano! A few Lebanese dishes that you may try are stuffed vine leaves, fasolia w riz (beans with rice), mujaddara (lentils) and Lebanese meat balls in tahini sauce or yogurt. You will end your meal with Lebanese coffee, a selection of homemade jams and fresh fruits from the family garden.
