Founded by entrepreneur, Tony Kitous, who is credited with putting the glamour into Middle Eastern cuisine at his Levant and ... Kenza restaurants, Levant Group London, has further increased its diverse group of restaurant brands by launching London’s fashionable chain of Lebanese cafes - Comptoir Libanais, as well as upmarket gourmet grill outlet, Shawa. Strategic locations - including both Westfield Shopping Centres, authentic Moroccan/Lebanese home-style food and unique designer and artisan-created interiors combine beautifully, to make the Group a firm favourite with London’s corporate and leisure market alike.
