Lebanese Please.

by Jamila Pierre

My mother decided to take me to this interesting, sleek little Lebanese restaurant on 

686 3rd Ave (between 43rd St & 44th St) in NYC.

This place was too quaint, chic, and well thought out.

The concept of having a restaurant in a narrow lot, while still maximizing on the space, was just pure genius. what the tables lacked in width, they made up in length, and the seats had cubby holes for your belongings as to keep the space open and airy.

The back area was for reserved parties and the front was for walk-ins., the design of this place was as aesthetically pleasing as the food was delicious and fresh.

The appetizers were delicious bites that left you craving the fresh and robust flavors of what was in store for the entree. 

I ordered the roasted chicken, it came with fire roasted Veggies, a small mound of rice, and a spicy yogurt sauce....which if you know me you know I didn't eat any of that, spicy is not my friend.

My mother ordered the same but with the lamb, and we both paired the meal with some Lebanese beer.

Libra: The Reins

by Jamila Pierre

September 23rd - October 22nd.

Symbol: The Scales of Justice

Element: Air

Ruling Planet: Venus -- The planet of beauty and love

Body Part: Lower back, butt

Secret Wish: To love and be loved in return.

Libras love to be surrounded by art, culture and beauty in a soft, harmonious environment. You love good food and expensive things. Lovely Libra knows how to charm but behind your dimples and sweet personality, you're a fighter. 

Libra is the sign of the scales, and you can't stand anything that's unfair or unbalanced. 

You'll stand up for justice, and you'll do it with style.

"The Libra is all about balance and knows how to mix and match fashion styles to work in her favor. Whether she is wearing a short mini skirt with high stilettos, or she’s wearing an elegant cotton pant suit, she will still look fashionable and stylish.

A typical outfit for a Libra is usually a nice silk blouse adorned with a floral pattern, and a pair of comfortable dark colored trousers. However, it’s not uncommon for a Libra to wear different types of dresses. She has a dress for every occasion. She has the long and sleek dress, the short and flirty dress, and the comfortable “every day” dress."
