Olive Trees, Mountain Views, and An All-You-Can-Eat Sunday Buffet in Chouf!
Visiting Lebanon’s mountain regions is always a good idea, no matter the season. Now that we’re easing out of summer, you can enjoy a cool breeze to go with your stunning mountain views at some spots around Lebanon. Beib El Chouf is a must-visit spot where you can sit amongst the olive trees, enjoy stunning views, and chow down on an all-you-can-eat Sunday buffet.
This spot is teaming up with Beirut’s beloved eatery Maryool for their open Sunday buffet, serving your favorite Lebanese bites with stunning views to spare.
The first thing you’ll see is an old stone village house welcoming you in. If you’re in love with teta w jeddo’s house bel day3a, you’ll love the simple setup on the terrace. Rugs on the floor and mountains right in front of you, it feels like the perfect Sunday escape.
Lunch is served outdoors, under the olive trees, right in the courtyard of this traditional mountain home. Its arched doorways and stone walls add to the charm, so if you love dining in Lebanese heritage homes, you’ll love Beib El Chouf.
The open buffet is full of delicious Lebanese and local dishes, from home-style cooking to seasonal fruits and traditional desserts.
But the experience doesn’t stop at the food. You can wander through the olive groves, breathe in the smell of the earth, play board games, sip matté, laugh with your friends, and meet new people over a cup of coffee, freshly brewed by 3ammo Nadim.
If you’re up for a light adventure, you can let the visit the donkey farm with your kids. Surrounded by nature, the day flies by and leaves you with a sense of calm that stays with you.
Fall is the perfect time for a trip like this. The leaves are turning, the mountain air is crisp, and the sun still warms the terrace.
