Restaurant Name: La Vinaigrette

Hard to describe this place.
The food is a mixed of western and japanese, the quality is ok but not excellent. The service is very average and the receptionist is paid to drive away customers.
Basically the first thing you will be ask before greetings, is : "do you have a reservation ?" if you say no it is bad even if the place is totally empty !
Despite all of that, I continue to visit that place.
If you decide to do so too, book in advance and ask a table by window !

Favorite Dish: Spinach crepe (the locals will call it spanish crepe !!).
Good coffee

Rome's Glory with smoked salmon and

too much mayo

Restaurant Name: the blue fig

The Blue Fig is truly the place to be seen in Amman.
For foreigner or tourist, it can bring to you a totally different picture of Jordan.
High and upper middle class young people speaking load and drinking alcohol.
In summer, the Blue Fig can become an unintentional cat walk spot !
Don't miss it !

Favorite Dish: To my opinion, food is nothing special. Just go there to socialize and to be seen (LOL) ...

Carpaccio @ La Cucina

Restaurant Name: La Cucina

Went there for the second time early August for my own company dinner party.
We did not order anything special and everybody choose from the menu.
The food was ok as well as the service.
We could enjoy the nice garden as the season allows and it was great !
The restaurant was full but most of the customers arrived later than 21.30.

Favorite Dish: As usual !
Carpaciao (see pic)
Penne Arrabiata
Tiramisu
