Baalbeck
Mons, Belgium
The read// why locals go
Baalbeck is a family-run Lebanese kitchen on the Rue de la Clef, a side street close to the Grand-Place but with none of its foot traffic. The Lakis family cook mezze fresh each day, and the menu carries a full vegetarian and vegan side rather than a token line at the bottom — Lebanese cooking has always been well built for that, and this kitchen leans into it. It is a single location, run by the people who own it, in the everyday price band rather than the occasion one. What you get is one food culture done properly: grills, mezze and small dishes meant to arrive together and be shared across the table.
