Food Scene
Arada Cafe is a Lebanese Restaurant. I could say that it is a little bit touristic place. Their Lebanon breakfast is famous. They have different jams, olives, they give you a lot of bread, doughnuts, cheese pastries, and humus for breakfast. It is just at the beginning of the street, 1 min by walking.
