I've had my eyes on this place for a year now... but never had the chance to actually try it till last weekend!
La Vie en Rose is located in the beautiful village of Khenchara - Bologna. This newly renovated venue caters for lots of memorable occasions and events such as: Weddings, Birthday, Open Sunday Buffet, or just walk-in for a simple lunch or dinner!
Last Saturday we visited this charming place and spent around 3 hours!! Our Verdict? WE LOVED IT!
Read on and see for yourself why ;)

The Venue
This amazing garden with its astonishing landscape is simply a perfect place to unwind, relax, and enjoy a day out of Beirut's traffic, pollution, and heat!
We just couldn't stop enjoying all the green open space, the cute spots here and there that screams for family pictures! The wooden logs, the small lake with the bridge, the wedding ceremony with the breathtakingly panoramic view as a background made me all wish to throw a new wedding vows party!
But now let's focus about our Family Lunch experience :)

Outdoor Restaurent
Shaded by the palapa ceiling, and surrounded by lots of Pine trees, the outdoor restaurant adds a cool and refreshing feeling to the experience. Waiters were freindly and service was quick. Menu has a variety of both International and Lebanese cuisines. We opted for a small Lebanese Mezza: Fattouch - Hoummous - French Fries - mixed pastries (Kibbeh - Rakakkat - Sambousik - mixed grill BBQs)
Food was average, Meat wasn't that Fresh and here's what we didn't like:
1 - Waiter placed on our table a big bottle of water (4,000LL) as soon as we were seated and without asking us!
2 - He didn't bother to tell us that huge mixed BBQ plate we ordered is served with a big plate of fries so we ended up with an extra untouched plate (6,500LL)
Tables are overlooking the playground area, so lots of parents were enjoying their arguileh while monitoring their kids from above!

Kids Playground
Kids playground is divided into 2 separate sections:
first part is directly under the restaurant terrace with a wooden play-area (2 swings, slides, porch...) and a huge inflatable.
Place is still in renovation process and lots of security measures should be taken into consideration such as:

- electrical plugs
- low wooden gates
- maintenance for the ground
Indoor Seating
Indoor seating is a huge wooden log with very cool any bohemian style furniture. Work still in progress, however, we can already see this place potentials and can't wait to try it out in winter!
As for the bathroom.. waw I loved the mosaic floor, the wooden doors, and the cool sinks. It all added up to the warm and cozy feeling of this charming place!
