Summer is Coming…

A Review of La Cantine du Faubourg, Jumeirah Emirates Towers Hotel
Overall, particularly for the price you pay, the food ain’t finger lickin good, but the atmosphere definitely makes up for it. The DJ is great, the energy is upbeat, and the service is friendly.

Remember Palestine

As inhabitants of both this blessed and cursed land, let’s focus less on the negative and more on showcasing the positive. Let’s try to paint a picture that’s a little lighter, share smiles that are a little wider, and work towards a future that’s a little brighter.

Worth a Watch!

Welcome to Worth a Taste!
Eating well is a luxury best enjoyed with friends and family. I hope this video offers you a little glimpse into my world.

The New Beirut

A Review of Acoté, in Mar Mikhael
A great lunch spot with good food, good service, and a not-so-great but charming view.

Home Sweet Home

A Review of Cucina, in Downtown Beirut
I’m not usually a fan of Boubess Group’s brands – but Cucina, I like. I would definitely go back to try their pastas and mains and would certainly recommend it to those looking for a yummy Italian meal in a really pretty setting.

When Does a lot Become Too Much?

2015 is off to a sad start. While most of us celebrated the holidays happy, with our family and friends, surrounded by love and great food, January has so far proven to be very difficult for very many people.

Thanksgiving by the Numbers

This year, I thought I’d give thanks for all the blessings in my life in the most pragmatic way possible, by the numbers. There are so many reasons for me to give thanks in 2014. Behold, the figures!

If It Ain’t Broke

A Review of La Parrilla, in Gemmayze
Overall, the meal was superb. The service is impeccable, the decor is gorgeous, and the food is really top notch. La Parrilla 1.0 may not have been broke, but both this fix nevertheless made all the difference.

Attack of the Clones

A Review of Mario e Mario, in Mar Mikhael
Uninspired and boring, the meal wasn’t bad but it wasn’t good either. If this restaurant wants to survive, it needs to change a lot more than just the paint on the walls.

A Loss of Appetite

I’m not much of a believer, but today, I pray for those innocent people just trying to survive in Gaza. I pray that the few rockets fired into Lebanon will remain just a little thing. And most of all, I pray that one day, I’ll be worry-free enough to blog strictly about food. And not feel the need to vent about lives lost. I’m sorry readers, but today, I’ve lost my appetite.
