Gift Tips

Reserve ahead for weekend brunch to avoid long waits—Lulu is often busy on Saturdays and Sundays.
Share the mezze platter with a group to sample many standout items like labneh, muhammara, fresh breads, and crisp falafel.
Order the Knafeh pancake or Baklava French Toast as a dessert splurge—both are unique house treats worth sharing.
Try the halloumi or falafel sliders and the Mansaf Roti Roll for savory, Instagram-ready bites that showcase Lulu's fusion twists.
Ask for specialty drinks like the rose brûlée latte or orange blossom soda; they’re distinctive and pair well with sweet dishes.
