What is a Banquet?

The term “banquet” has various meanings, resonating with Zahli’s dedication to special events within its contemporary space.

In Lebanese dining, a banquet typically refers to a large and festive meal served at special occasions and celebrations. It often involves a variety of dishes, showcasing the rich and diverse flavours of Lebanese cuisine. Banquets are common at weddings, family gatherings, holidays, and other significant milestones.

Lebanese cuisine is known for using fresh and flavourful ingredients, including herbs, spices, vegetables, and various types of meat. A traditional Lebanese banquet may include grilled meats, hot and cold mezza (appetisers), salads, and more.

The dining experience in Lebanese banquets is often communal, with guests sharing and enjoying the different dishes together. The atmosphere is lively, and the meal is a time for socialising and celebrating. Lebanese hospitality is well-known, and hosts take pride in offering their guests a bountiful and delicious spread during banquets.
