Beirut’s Most Expensive Buffet!! Lebanese Food UNLIMITED!!

In this video there is a big piece of meat that I am going to eat at the

most

expensive

buffet

I could find in Beirut, Lebanon, but there is a twist. The twist is that it only costs fifty dollars, now fifty dollars is nothing, but it's not that crazy. When you think about probably the

most

expensive

buffet

in the country, well, what's going on? Sunny, well I will tell you that things in Lebanon have changed in the last three years, in 2020 there was a gigantic economic crisis, which means that things are changing a lot. cheaper now than it used to be, that means that now if you travel to Lebanon your money can go much further.

The good thing about this is that it's not like you're actually taking advantage of people by coming here and saving a ton of money, it's exactly what they need. They need tourism. They need dollars. They need people to come here and spend money and that's exactly it. what we are doing today the buffet is right inside, let's take a look thank you for going down to where the restaurant is The place is beautiful and this hotel is unique because it is on top of a hill and you can see the entire city of Beirut. This buffet will open in five minutes.

It's about to get very crowded. Here there are different types of vegetables roasted and fried and then I look at something like this and I say yeah, I don't know, that looks delicious, I just don't know what it's called here we have a mini salad bar. I will stay away from this section, it is very famous salad that you will find in Lebanon basically in almost every meal this is a dish that can be made with raw meat it looks like mashed potatoes with the shape of a beautiful cylinder with a pattern on the top here we have beautiful stuffed grape leaves there is fish there is fried cauliflower, there is beet and then there is hummus here.

I think these are artichoke hearts. Here this is a section that we will see later. These are Middle Eastern desserts. Know what it is? Maybe I made it up. No? I'm even sure they have fruit in the US, it means you're eating healthy here, it means an after dinner treat, this is what I'm talking about, it's beautiful, it has cream inside and other things, no I know that. It's, I can make up a name for this, you won't know the niferous, yeah, it said blue beep, super cool, beep. Loop here can't wait to try this blue outside is where they have the main dishes there is a private party here and you can see this amazing view looking out over the city boring who cares about the

food

here the grill is heating up and ready to go grill meat this is the main course right here the chefs are still filling it what is this this this is this is an amazing Lebanese sausage it smells like strong cinnamon and here you have some really nice sausages so that's all the

food

we need to get started from the beginning, probably some of those dishes on the table inside, then I'll graduate to here.

I want to see the guys cooking meat in front of me I need drinks, oh God, there is so much going on. I'm going to sit down, make a plan, let's do this. This is a dish made with raw meat mixed with a lot of spices, so I want to try some of those classic hard grape leaves, depending on what they are stuffed with, they can be quite delicious. This is so perfect that I don't want to destroy it, but I do too. I'm going to do it. to know what this is, so I think it's mashed potatoes, this is certainly something I've never had before on the show.

It's a damn artichoke. They have freshly baked fish and they smell really fishy, ​​but I'm going to get one anyway. go eat if you have a starter right here. I have to say this is one of the most unique buffets I've ever been to because I don't recognize almost anything and that's fun. Let's start with the potentially most boring one. Here I think it's probably mashed potatoes with some herbs and butter inside, not buttery, they may have a little olive oil in them and it tastes a little bitter. Here in Lebanon people are very fans of sour flavors.

I've never had mashed potatoes like this, but it's not bad. Here we have the grape leaves, they are all very cold and they are stuffed, but what are they stuffed with? I'm not sure, let's find out. Salty, it's a little acidic. I think it tastes a little like pomegranate. Let's open it and see. what's inside, yes it's rice and a bunch of spices, there's also some tomato so it's a little sour too, this has to be raw meat, take a look, I know this because it makes a very specific Gucci sound when I move it a lot. like raw meat, we had already filmed for our main channel here in Lebanon and then I had something similar to this too, let's try it and not just any meat that is raw lamb and very lamb, there are a lot of spices inside, it is a little intense, in It actually tastes like the spices you would have in a kebab, but it's all raw.

So we have some fish. If I had to guess, I would say this fish came from the Mediterranean Sea, smelled fishy and didn't look like it. It's going to be fantastic. You can't judge food by itself, just like you can't judge a person by their smell. All girls in their twenties. I finally figured it out. It's called deodorant. Nobody told me artichoke. I haven't eaten artichokes in the last 10 years. I think I forgot how each one of these leaves that you can tear off has like a little bit of starch or something that you can peel off with your teeth and that has no flavor, the texture is like the inside of a pea.

I like it. Overall, it just doesn't have a very strong flavor and they didn't boil it in salt or anything like that. That's the lesser known part of the artichoke, the part that everyone knows of course, is the artichoke heart, oh my gosh, what am I doing? I'm doing it wrong, this food is edible, I don't know, let's see if I spit this out, that part is not so good, let me break this opening, wait, oh, when you open it, it is revealed that it looks like a cattail. I do not do it. I do not know what I'm doing.

I'm not going to eat this. It was a fantastic ending to our first course. Let's go to round two and maybe even have some wine. At first when I saw this I thought it was a quiche, but no, it's baked salmon maybe with egg or cheese, oh yeah, it looks like a good bread, nothing better than basically a cake with pieces of salmon inside. I think this is maybe an arctic choke heart and I already failed so badly with the artichoke heart. that I was around too we have some hummus I'm going to buy some of these they look like egg rolls here we have beets why am I buying beets because I want to go to the bathroom later and be terrified of a In a short moment, it also adds a nice color to the plate.

We have fish on us. Let's put it there. This also seems like a very successful round. I found the bread section and indeed this bread has Wi-Fi. Great, let's go eat. Ladies and gentlemen, me too, of course, but I also ordered a bottle of wine. This is a Lebanese white wine. The cameraman takes wine too dangerous because these shots could soon go out of focus. Lebanon is famous for its uniqueness and its people. They drink like crazy They are known for their nightlife They love to party okay, let's get into this right now. I'm going to start with some beets.

I don't know why I love beans so much, they are naturally sweet and taste like earth. but I like it, people here in Lebanon love bread. I see it in every meal I've experienced here like bread, we also have hummus. Hummus is made from a few different things, garlic, olive oil, lots of chickpeas, oh that's some great hummus. very smoky Roasted tasty garlic flavored and delicious here I don't know what this is it looks like a spring roll I'm going to tear it up oh it's better than a spring roll I think they're full of cheese Lebanese cheese sticks oh my goodness It's so good which is like white cheese that is oily and drippy on the inside and on the outside it is super crunchy.

It's a pleasant surprise. How often do you open something and then find out oh my god there's cheese in here like you fell off your bike or something and broke your head open you never say there's cheese on my head is that bad example , here we have some fish and then some kind of orange salad underneath, not all the food is Lebanese, they also have some food from other neighboring countries, let's try it. It's like a hot, spicy sauce and the fish is fish, but it's a good combination that's really good. Here's our quiche, but I don't even know if it's really quiche.

I see pieces of salmon. I see cheese on top. How strange when you bite into it for the first time! It's nice, but it has a little. It bothers me, it has a strong fishy flavor, but overall it's very good, it has a little cracker ready base at the bottom. I think it has egg in the middle, there's a little bit of cheese and then. Smoked Salmon Fishy Inside We're about to go get the meat, but first, this is an artichoke heart. This is what I should have been able to get out of that artichoke, but I didn't have the necessary skills or experience.

I did not know that. I was doing that it's not good it's a weird texture it has a very vibrant flavor it's crunchy it's good it makes a small plate I could put it in the bathroom it could contain soap let's go get some meat we're all warmed up I've had two plates it's time to get some meat. Hello, what do you have here with sauce and the chicken and the lamb and the rice? Okay, let's try it right, so you take the sauce right here and put it in a pot, that's step one. This sauce has a very strong smell of cinnamon, so I put a lot of vegetables in it.

This is a lot of food, maybe more than I expected, so we put some rice on the plate, some chicken and then some lamb that goes here once it's ready. that's going to go on top of here, so here we have vinegar and onion together, some chips and some lemon sauce too. Thanks, let's take this to the table because it's too hot and too heavy. I'll come back for you. I'm going to get more, what else do we have here now, everything is open, it looks delicious. We have rice, we have Kevin here, we have fish rice, okay, I'll try some of them, amazing service, very nice, chef at first. of the day he said that this is a very famous sausage and very delicious, but why not have one, sir?

Thank you, don't wake up, this is enough for the third course. Let's go for something you won't find at your Old Country Buffet and even this. dish here, you literally had to make it for me with several different ingredients, we have a lot of onions with vinegar on top, we have these thick greens that almost look like seaweed or sautéed spinach or something, there's rice on the bottom that's soggy. all the juices and it was boiling, let's try this acid from the vinegar of the onions, but I really like the cinnamon flavor and it's tasty overall, oh look at that, it's like a nice piece of meat, big and thick, I meant lamb . all the time I don't know what that is it's a big piece of meat that has been stewed for so long it's very soft and tender it's very delicious or my Cuban friend Aura would say you're so Jammy okay what's going on here?

Sausage, come take a look. In this, this is what I like about this sausage is its inconsistent texture and its shape, you can see that stuffed with rice looks very intestinal, let's try it Hamburger casing filled with rice tons of cinnamon flavor Saltine interesting because it is a sausage but It is not stuffed with meat, they filled it with air and also rice, this is a stuffed zucchini, what do you end up with? Oh, it's not cheese, that looks good, although it looks like there's some rice and some meat, technically I mean a fruit, hey Siri.

Technically zucchini is a fruit, zucchini is technically a fruit, although it is treated like a vegetable, sorry, hey, you know what I treated you like a vegetable? I'm sorry because I know you are a very fruity fruit, the last one here is fish on top of rice. oh look people here love almonds and walnuts in general and I love walnuts especially these nuts are a beautiful blend of spices, it's almost like a Biryani, nice texture on the rice. I love that brown color, it's brown in such a way that you know it's I've been absorbing some nice flavors here there's a piece of fish, the rice, all the sauces are mixing together.

I must say that the food improves with each dish. There is a live meat roast section. Let's go check it out next. There is one thing I haven't tried yet, that is live roast beef. Now the animals are not alive, but the barbecue is definitely here. We have our meat on the grill. We have some chicken and beef here. I always put more on the grill. this looks very tasty, I love it, oh here they have some sauces, they have garlic sauce, tartar sauce, barbecue and cocktail sauce too, so we have our dish here, this is a major meat, we have kofta, this is the lamb or roasted shrimp. chicken and then this sauce is called tumba, let's go back to the table, here we have our grilled meats, let's start with the shrimp.

I'm going to turn the head and they've already split the back, so it's pretty easy to get. the rest they divided it, they removed the line of excrement from its spine, basically I should say that mostly I found some excrement, I still taste it without doing this, it is a tasty shrimp, it jumps, it has shrimp, it is very nice, like this is called. This is a garlic cream sauce, it has such an intense garlic flavor that if you ate it on a first date, they would divorce you and you would have to pay alimony somehow even though it was yours.first date, so if you really like the pure and intense flavors of garlic, that's the one for you.

You can't eat meat alone in Lebanon you have to eat it with bread. I have some more of this bread. Right here, most people eat with their hands. In this scenario, they would take some bread, break up some meat, add some of this delicious garlic cream, and throw it back. Greetings. I love lamb. I grew up in Minnesota, not really. lamb, plus, you know, in the US, if you get lamb, what do you get, lamb chops? And it's something my family never ate because you know we were white trash when I got McDonald's twice a year it was like, Oh my God, mom, you won a Scratch Off, we got McDonald's, I got two cheeseburgers, what happened?

Mom, the lamb is good, deliciously seasoned, it has an excellent texture, creamy like powerful garlic and I like the bread here because it is very thin. I can grab this chicken, wrap the bread, peel it, punch it. with a little sauce and stir it in deliciously seasoned chicken still quite moist it's like the breast is pretty good brush I like these guys they are Grill Masters but this meal for me doesn't work at all if you don't have the sauce it's like trying to eat this shrimp without sauce is a problem this is our last dinner plate from here dessert boom we have entered the dessert section now this is what they would like you to make they would like you to get a plate of this size but I'm not going to fall for that , let's go here, this looks impressive and delicious.

I'm going to break out some of this, a lot more cake than expected. You can see there's like a cream on top and some pistachios and then we have this here. It looks like fried hair in the best way possible and then there's cream in the middle. This reminds me of a Turkish dessert. It is important not to miss this step here as it is not water, it is syrup and the whey has to go on top. dessert so let's put it oh yeah right here they literally just have a bowl of whipped cream of course I want to make this whipped cream on its own this is just chocolate cake.

I think we have enough dessert, let's go to the table. The last course has been an incredible journey, so many different surprises, so many new foods and then, here, the best way to end it. Do you ever go to Starbucks and order whipped cream and pumpkin? They will look at you strange, but it's worth it. because it's delicious and tastes like golden whipped cream. By the way, it's very good. Whipped cream diet trick. If you get Cool Whip in a tub, put it in the freezer, it's like 10 calories from ice cream and it's real. well this right here fat trick if you are trying to get fat as fast as possible eat whatever there is a creamy top crust there is pistachio let's try it oh it's so sweet it's like the texture of gulab jamun they look like indian desserts here something similar to Turkey.

Turkey loves its desserts and here definitely does too. It even tastes a little like roads. It's good, it's interesting because it looks like it has layers, but when you put it in your mouth it's just a big sugary texture. All bread that has been soaking your syrup, which is very sweet. I recommend small bites so that this is our final dessert. I have the syrup on top in the middle, a layer of cream, just look at the top and bottom layers, the crunch there. Let's try it with super sweet, amazing and crunchy texture, like little miniature fried noodles, almost very creamy inside and just tons of sugar.

This is cool and all, but there's a private party behind me and they have a giant cake. looking at it right now I also want some of that there is a cross on the cake maybe the cake is for God God cake this was amazing from here we have to finish this guys that's the end of the video and oh my god what? What a buffet what an experience what a life I must say I have never seen a buffet like this in my life I feel like I have been to different planets some foods were familiar many were not some were questionable and many were absolutely delicious and it is fun to try them for the first time once and can I try them again?

Yes, in theory, except I wouldn't know how to order them because I don't know how to say the names. Yeah, it sucks, the buffet, fifty dollars a wine. for a bottle of wine 25 here super cheap if you are ever in Beirut why don't you stop by anyway?
