The pleasure of visiting a street vendor is the best way to enjoy the local tastes. These stands have been a part of our culture for a number of hundreds of years. This is why people love eating in them during summer.
Shish Kebabs
Lebanese shish-kebabs consist of lamb that has been marinated with a mixture of garlic salt pepper , and other spices. The meat is then grilled to perfection, along with other vegetables such as mushrooms, onions or capsicum, and cherry tomatoes. These meals can be taken with you and can be enjoyed anywhere even on the move.
Shawarma
The delicious taste of the Shawarma sandwich is simply amazing. It is made of thinly sliced marinated pork that has been slow-roasted for hours on a skewer with a vertical design. The meat is then perfect with tahini sauce, lettuce tomato onion pickles and chicken.
The most appealing thing about these sandwiches? They can be found anywhere.
Falafel

These chickpea fried ball are comprised of chickpeas seasoned with spices, including cumin and coriander together with garlic chili powder. They’re then cut into small cones before wrapping them in pita. You can enjoy this special dish for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
Kebbeh
Kebbeh, Lebanon’s national dish is a favorite in this region for thousands of years. It is made with the burghul variety made of cracked wheat, diced onions and ground meat that is typically lamb. However, it may also include other meats like chicken or beef. The ingredients are well incorporated and fried until golden brown.
Kafta
Kheer bandooki is a wish fulfilled for lovers of meat. The delicious street food is made of ground beef, lamb or chicken that has been seasoned to perfection and formed into cigar-shaped cylinders before being cooked on an open flame, then grilled on skewers.
