Bellissimo’s

A swanky rooftop escape overlooking Rond Point Maorey. Go up there for drinks, dinner, dancing late, pedicures, watching the world go by. Have a beer and watch the rond point for accidents and near misses.

Eat
Amandine Cakes
Lattes, goat cheese soup, pain de chocolat, pain des epinards, salads, sandwiches, Lebanese specialties, and many other good things. Bright, clean, and modern, it is a very popular favorite amongst anyone who enters its doors. Taxi to “Score” (by Petite Marché), and it’s right across the street.
Drink
La Cloche
Pool-playing and casual atmosphere, though it's definitely for wealthy locals and expats. Lebanese and Western fare and great cocktails.
