Lebanese Meze - David and Shannon - LTCC Small Group

We are hoping to host David and Shannon on Tuesday night. When I asked them about their food allergies, likes and dislikes, they said avoid sushi. And then I learned how adventurous they are when it comes to cuisine. I have been feeling an urge to enjoy Middle Eastern Cuisine. Lately, I have been thinking about Lebanese cuisine and I think a meze, the tappas of the Middle East would be fun.
