Who’d have imagined that a top Italian fashion designer could also become wildly successful at the food business? Cavalli Caffè by Roberto Cavalli serves classic and inventive Italian cuisine, with a broad menu ranging from crunchy bruschettone and thin-crust pizza to fresh pasta and al dente risotto. The prices here are perhaps the best in class, particularly for the value bestowed upon the diner. Opt for the city’s only duck lasagna, scrumptious and rich with a full-bodied tomato sauce and buffalo mozzarella. End on another treat unique in Beirut, the Sicilian cannoli stuffed with ricotta, pistachio, and chocolate with mascarpone sauce.
