Noura Central
About Noura Central
You’ve probably heard of Noura, an award-winning Lebanese brasserie chain well liked for its style, service, design and wonderful food. Formerly known as Chintamanti, and one of four London Nouras (there are more in Paris), Noura Central is on the corner of Jermyn Street and Regent Street. All Nouras have prestigious addresses, you see. Prices aren’t cheap, but not all plush surroundings are so beautifully designed. Service is faultless, and the excellent food is supported by an outstanding international wine and champagne list, one of the biggest in London. Start with cold or hot meze, followed perhaps by chicken chawarma served between two pieces of traditional bread fresh from the oven at the centre of the room. The crowd crosses all ages and nationalities.
