Lebanese buffet in Lyon
Lebanon, a bridge between East and West: generous mezze, fragrant grills and homemade sweets, laid out for your events in Lyon for the length of a journey.
Every dish has a story
The Lebanese buffet, a table for sharing
At Layali Beyrouth, the buffet is the most generous expression of our cuisine: everyone helps themselves, tastes and rediscovers the Levantine table. From our family restaurant at 38 rue du Dauphiné, in Lyon 3, we build bespoke Lebanese buffets, delivered or served, for your professional and family events.
“A Lebanese buffet is a table that brings people together: the mezze are shared, everyone serves themselves, and the meal becomes a conversation.”

Composition
What a Layali Beyrouth buffet includes
A Lebanese buffet is built around the great pillars of the Levantine table. Cold mezze open the meal with their colours and textures; hot mezze take over, crisp and golden; the grills bring the character; the sweets close the meal on the sugary note of Lebanese pastry.
On the cold mezze side, count on our creamy hummus, our parsley tabbouleh, smoked aubergine moutabal and fresh salads.
The hot mezzefalafel, kibbeh, come before the marinated grills, ahead of the baklava and homemade sweets. Each composition adapts to the number of guests and the time of day.
Organisation · Lyon 3

Buffet, cocktail or meal tray
Which Lebanese catering format to choose in Lyon?
Our catering service offers the same cuisine in three formats. The right choice mostly depends on how your guests will eat: seated around a table, standing and mingling, or each at their own place.
01
The Lebanese buffet
Cold and hot mezze, marinated grills and homemade sweets laid out on a large table where everyone helps themselves at their own pace. The most generous format, ideal for a full meal with family, colleagues or at a reception.
02
The cocktail dinner
The mezze become verrines and bites, followed by mini skewers: a standing service that keeps guests and conversation moving, for a long aperitif or a dinner without a table.
03
The meal tray
A complete meal per guest, mezze of the day, a hot dish and an oriental sweet, delivered or collected: the format designed for a team lunch or a meeting that must not break the rhythm of the day.
Torn between two formats? Simply tell us the date, the number of guests and how your event will unfold: the personalised proposal will decide for you.
Bespoke & vegetarian
A buffet suited to all your guests
Lebanese cuisine is naturally rich in vegetarian preparations: hummus, moutabal, tabbouleh, falafel and vegetable mezze make it possible to build an entirely vegetarian or mixed buffet, without ever cutting back on generosity.
