Who says salads can’t be fun? At Layali Cafe, the Beirut Smash salad features a mix of tomato, cucumber, onion, radish, sweet pepper, mint and Lebanese twist cheese. This sounds delicious on its own, but what makes it even more fun is that the salad is tucked inside a shell that guests get to smash before they dig in.
