中環與中。。。。。。東 I was excited when I saw this listed but it wasn't open yet.
This spot used to be Cafe Life which served vegetarian food. At first I thought it was French because of the spelling but after googling it, I found out it was Lebanese and there are not many Lebanese joints in HK.
Cafe Lebanaise sounds French and it might have some French connections because I seem to recognize one of the diners from Les fil a maman and La Station.
If I wasn't having dinner that night, I would have settled for a wrap or Tabouleh salad.
They have a food glossary card so if you see any word on the menu which you don't understand you can refer to it. There were these tempting cakes with salted caramel drizzled on top so I got one of those. I thought they were going to give me the one from the glass display but they already had them ready in tubs but luckily they were made an hour ago so they were really fresh. The taste of this date cake was divine, basically the same as the British sticky toffee pudding which is soft and moist but not as sweet.
I was surprised it wasn't too sweet because most Middle Eastern dates I have tried are too sweet.
Also had the Pomegranite Labneh which is yoghurt and it tasted really strong, it was thick, sweet and tart. I was so glad I went that day because everything was half priced so I saved myself $38! Definitely coming back for the salads and wraps.
