Tavolina

Tavolina in Mar Mikhael is built by chef Dany Khairallah with entrepreneur Dany Aprat, and is named in a local Arabic-language pizza round-up specifically for its wood-fired pizza. A separate English-language local review describes the crust as thin-bordered with a spongy, airy heart and singles out the tomato sauce as distinctively made.
