Pois Chiche
At Pois chiche (French for chickpea), the super-healthy legume found in hummus – among other things – plays a starring role. Even the beer is made from chickpeas. In this plant-based Lebanese restaurant they use as many local ingredients as possible, including for the halloumi and flatbread.
