Munch of The Week
Cedar
“Cedar is located in South Wimbledon, near where I grew up. Not only does it have the best and most authentic Lebanese food, but I hold it close to my heart because it’s where my family and I would always go out to eat when I was growing up and even to this day! One of my Teta’s favourites too. My Teta always cooked the best Lebanese/Armenian food so I always trusted her judgement on this one being authentic.” - Bklava
This spot was recommended by garage sensation Bklava, in her guide to Lebanese food in London.
