Kaftah and Tabouleh entree with Babaghanouj |
Spinach Pie |
So today we lost our Lebanese Virginity! We ate our first Lebanese meal at Beirut Cafe in St. Petersburg on Park St. We have passed by this little cafe quite a number of times but never really had the chance to try them out until today. I was hungry. I ordered the Beef Steak Kabob wrap and Spinach Pie while my husband ordered a Kaftah and Tabouleh entree with Babaghanouj. This has been the tastiest and most refreshing meal I had in a long time.
The spinach pie is a large triangular, flat shape filled with spinach, onion, spices, lemon juice, and olive oil. The taste was phenomenal, with a refreshing spinach and lemon flavor. Don't forget about the desserts, they were plentiful and sweet, using a variety of nuts and dough. The food here is made fresh to order and on the premises, I definately did not hear a ding from the microwave while we waited.
This is a very typical small business restaurant where the staff are the owners. This was one of the reasons we liked this place so much, they treated us like we were family.
