Ivy Hits Beirut-Town

My girl and I hit the town this weekend. I had ordered the perfect Bebe dress online for the occasion.

With the to-die-for Lanvin pumps I’ve been gushing over for awhile now and could finally afford this month.

Nothing like starting a night-out with some pink champagne and strawberries and that’s exactly what my girl and I did before heading out on Friday night. 

We headed down to Gemmayzeh and had some frozen margaritas.

I was dropping my girl of home and we decided to stop by Ichiban at Jal-el-Dib for some sushi and that was probably the first and last time we will ever walk into that joint again.

We had the chicken yakitori which was the driest stalest chicken ever!!

We  found it odd that Ichiban does not give customers the option of ordering sushi boats/sets. You have to order piece by piece. What’s more surprising is they don’t have much options for non-raw fish eaters except for crab and guess what, they’re ridiculously over-priced as compared to the quality of food and venue. The miso soup costs  9,500LL and the edamame beans cost 10,000LL. PULEAASE!! That’s what you would pay at Osaka and trust me this place is no Osaka. They only have one waiter upstairs for about ten tables .The toilet sink  is in a spot where diners can see and hear  people washing their hands. And frankly the crab tastes like it was frozen and then defrosted.
