12 Reasons You Should Drag Your Friends To This Beirut Snack
When faced with the option to “go big or go home”, this local snack decided to GO BIG, even in name.
Super Snack El Kbeer is the latest addition to the street of hidden gems that is Mar Mikhael. Located facing Electricité du Liban, El Kbeer has WOW-ed us with their versatile menu of local delicacies, ranging from wraps and kaak to burgers and shawarma.
One taste of their sandwiches and platters will have you hooked, so it’s only fair that you share this pleasure with your loved ones. Here are 12 reasons why you should drag your friends to El Kbeer:
1. They have the best shawarma
Whether you opt for the exemplary chicken or the flavorful beef shawarma, you’re definitely in for a treat. Succulent meat, fresh veggies, and a generous portion of toum or tarator, all wrapped in your choice of Arabic bread or saj. Either way you go, El Kbeer shawarma is a meal for the champions.
2. They open after midnight
Open till 2 AM on weekdays and 4 AM on Fridays and Saturdays, El Kbeer will satisfy your insatiable midnight hunger. Weekends spent drunk on Mar Mikhael now have a happy ending, with a post-midnight shawarma (or 3) to sober you up after a long night of extreme partying and booze downing.
3. Their ingredients are fresh
Sandwiches, wraps, and plates are prepared with only the freshest produce to ensure maximum crunch and unbeatable flavors. You don’t have to worry about wilted lettuce or soggy fries here.
4. Their diverse menu features something-for-everyone
Not one to miss breakfast? Their foron wraps were made for you. Want a quick sandwich on the go? C H I C K E N S U B. You like your burger in Arabic bread? Order it now. El Kbeer’s inclusive and versatile menu will make sure every taste is satisfied and every craving is fulfilled.
5. Their prices are super affordable
The only thing better than a good meal is a fairly-priced one. El Kbeer Snack highly values your expenses, giving you exactly what you paid for and then some more. So when you’re nearing the end of the month and you’re severely broke, you know where to go.
6. Their OLD SCHOOL Lebanese burger is a must-try
No one can resist a good burger, especially not one with a traditional and homespun Lebanese twist. Soft bun, a juicy patty, homemade coleslaw, a handful of crunchy fries and a drizzle of ketchup… this delicacy is a must-try.
7. They have a fresh raw meat selection
We’re always told to watch out for raw meat and be picky when it comes to having it anywhere outside of the house. El Kbeer exceeds our speculations with a selection of raw meat that is fresh and simply delicious.
8. Their recipes are authentic
We’re well aware that sometimes a personal twist might add to a recipe, but with Lebanese food, authentic is always best. Classic shawarma, mashewe, and mana2ish are simply unmatched, and El Kbeer follows recipes that our grandparents swear by.
9. They have the perfect post-meal treat
Once you’re on your second shawarma and your sweet tooth starts itching, stick around for a special order off their cocktail menu. With a fresh assortment of fruits and juices, their fruit cocktail is the ultimate post-meal healthy treat to seal the deal.
10. They’ve always got something fresh happening
The cool people over at El Kbeer always have their eyes on the latest happenings. Be it a national basketball game, an international celebration like Valentine’s Day or the official announcement of the Lebanese parliament, El Kbeer always have their own twist to add.
11. They will remind you of your Lebanese childhood
In honor of that classic man’ouchet zaatar and 3asir ananas combination we were all obsessed with as children, El Kbeer Snack will give you a free pyramid Mr Juicy with every man’ouche you order. Just a little something that goes a long way.
12. They deliver online
In case we still haven’t convinced you to actually drag your friends down to the snack (or if they’re just too lazy to go anywhere), El Kbeer will deliver to you. They have collaborated with each of Zomato, Toters and Onlivery to bring their quick decadent bites right to your doorstep. Sahten!
