10 Signs You Fully Live To Eat In Lebanon

There are two types of people: people who live to eat and people who eat to live (what are you doing). Here are 10 signs you’re most definitely the first type.


1. You only make plans revolving around food.

“Guys fi mahal byaamoul sushi crepe, LEZEM njarbo!”



2. You associate family members with their tabkhat.

”Ah mama, hayde el tante yalli btaamol wara2 3ennab wala taba3 el sfouf el taybin?”



3. You’re never (ever) full.



And even if you are, it’s not a determining factor for you to stop eating.



4. People laugh at you when you attempt to diet.



Your friend: “Man, chou 3am btaamleh? Saraha mech rah tdayneh wala d2i2a”



5. You’re always the one asking to share everything on the menu.



You want to try that truffle gnocchi, the honey-glazed ribs, and that oven-baked Camembert dip.



6. You take it personally if the dish you ordered is not up to perfection.

“Eno I try not to set expectations from people but from food? I will take it very personally especially if I have been thinking about this cheat meal all week long.”



7. You’re the “I want to talk to the manager” person when it comes to food.



“Fineh ehkeh ma3 el chef please? Kenet hon last week w kenIt seasoned aktar el pizza.”



8. You don’t mind the place as long as it serves good food.

You’re always on the hunt for those hidden gems that offer delicious food even if it’s in the middle of nowhere or if it’s in an underground kitchen.



9. You’re always the first to tag your friends on all Crave articles.

“Guys, Beirut.com nazalo el newly opened places lyom w lezem njarebon kelon”



10. Your food recommendations have an A-class reputation.



AND, you take it personally if people don’t actually enjoy it.
