Paris right bank: Rifai, the temple of dried fruit as in Lebanon
A veritable institution, the Rifai house, founded in 1948 and already boasting some fifty stores in Lebanon, has opened its very first Parisian address in the chic 16th arrondissement to offer a taste of its divine dried fruits.
Roasted, raw, spiced, salted or sweetened, cashews, almonds, pistachios, macadamia nuts, hazelnuts, peanuts, flavored seeds, dried fruits are offered here in all their versions and in all their nobility. Enjoy with cardamom coffee. And don't forget to try Rifai's insane Beurres Minute! Like dried fruit pastes, these butters are prepared on the premises. Made from pistachios, cashews, almonds or peanuts, these creamy little bombs are a pleasure to eat.
Rifai, the temple of dried fruit
109, avenue Victor Hugo,
Paris 16th.
Open Monday to Thursday, 10am to 7:30pm and Friday and Saturday, 10am to 8pm.
