Want to eat on the go without sitting at a table? Are you a fan of Mediterranean flavors? Then let's go to Man'ouché - galette traditionnelle libanaise, a street food restaurant located in the 4th arrondissement of Paris, near the Centre Pompidou. The restaurant offers a variety of galettes, chawarmas and pittas, for a culinary journey to the heart of Lebanon.
On the menu are galettes cooked on a Saj(a kind of concave or convex frying pan used to cook the dough used to make these delicious takeaway sandwiches), as well as oven-baked pittas, and traditional flavors that are sure to please gourmets and gourmands alike. As for the galettes, you can opt for the thyme-based zaatar, but also for vegetarian versions, based on cheeses(halloum, labné...) or meats(Lahmé, Dejaje...).
Note that everything is homemade, right in front of you, for a freshly prepared sandwich. Galettes that the editors were able to try out on a lovely sunny day. And our expectations were more than met! So we opted for something classic, a zaatar, with extra labne... Beyond the delicacy of the flavors, we appreciate the balance between the different ingredients, all adapted to European palates, neither too spicy nor too bland. A wonderful discovery and a know-how that deserves a moment's pause. Shall we go, friends?
Please note that it's been over 4 years since our last visit, so the place and experience may have changed.
