Lebanese food in Lyon
To celebrate the end of classes for the last term a bunch of us got out and headed for Mont Liban, a Lebanese restaurant just above the touristy bistro Rue Merciere bistro alley (that we ate the guts sausage andouilette at). The address is at 19 Rue Merciere, but it's in an area that's semi-residential and not cobblestoned like Merciere.

One of our classmates is a Canadian of Lebanese origin and he thought up the idea to come here. Mind you it's not cheap, but because he spoke with the owner in Arabic, we were able to get away with spending only 20 EUR for appetizers, several kinds of roasted meat, and one bottle of Lebanese red wine for seven people.
I didn't have a chance to shoot a picture of the meat (grilled chicken, griled lamb, and grilled hamburger

Next time I go I'm gonna get a group of people together to try to order the 15 dish set (probably some small appetizers, some small portions of entrees, small portions of the desserts, and coffee/mint tea), for 19,50 EUR a person.
Heck, when it's barbecue season, might even try to make the stuff ourselves.
