Hello Steemians

One day, on the occasion of welcoming a sunny day, my friends and I gave ourselves an enjoyable break in the city of Ariana only to visit one mandatory point for all lovers of barbecues made by the RBS restaurant, also known as Chez Rebai.

Authentic Cuisine & Pleasant Atmosphere

Hidden on a hill and surrounded by olive trees, this place offers both ingredients which guarantee that you will have a great time spending here with your family at a casual venue.


1. First Impression and Setting

The sophisticated facade and meticulously planned outdoor area were the first things that wowed us upon arrival. The first thing you notice is the pristinely maintained entrance surrounded, secluded in greens, cleansed feels. While in comparing against a freshly cut big assorted plant shrubs/environment-friendly mass-and-pile of nature only.

In the bright, airy dining room spacious well-ventilated, the tables and chairs are a light color that complements the sense of clean space with which we started our meal. With the massive bay windows serving as sunbathing stations, there is a lot more natural lighting, it gives an aura of coziness and warmth that makes you feel comfortable while indulging in your meal.

Where ‟The panoramic terrace was outside. There are huge, properly placed tables here in this open-air area, ideal for group or family meals. The restaurant overlooks the neighbouring hills and olive groves, which makes it a unique place.

What I especially loved was the play area for the kids, just by it, nice, safe, and colorful. A set of swings, slides, and other play equipment surrounded by a colorful fence painted with friendly designs. A place for families to eat in peace while their children safely play on a playground.

2. The Meat and Fish Department: Outdoor Market

The Restaurant RBAI experience actually starts before you even sit down as here is where you make YOUR lunch. We proceeded to the refrigerated displays with large varieties of meats, poultry, and fish.

  • Fresh Fish: Sea bass & other types of seafood displayed on an ice bed to assure the best freshness. Those shiny scales and clear eyes are an excellent indicator of quality.

  • Marinated chicken and skewers: If you are lazy enough, there is a variety of chicken wings, thighs, and drumsticks seasoned and grill-ready; as well as roaster with peppers and lemon to prepare delicious Mediterranean «Skewer».

  • Without forgetting the red meats and Tunisian specialties: lamb chops, liver, merguez sausages, kefta, and skewers. This even when cold, the spices tickling his pleasant aroma as a reminder of that delicious grilling to come.

In front of you, a server weighs your choices and sends them to the grill station where they are prepared over charcoal by the cook in much the same way as a traditional Tunisian méchoui; transparent & fair. The sizzle and smell are inevitable when you already know your mouth is watering just through the screen.


3. The Feast: Meat right off the charcoal grill with fries and Salade Méchouia

Once patience landed us some perfectly burned meats, our table transformed into a ***real Tunisian feast. Plates started arriving, generously filled:

  • The Méchoui, the pride of the house: Chop-level with lamb tenderloin fat caches — of liver slightly burned outside and inside juicy but not rubbery without that chemical tang; merguez sausageulenceogenous calibrations.

  • Salade Méchouia (Tunisie): une base indéniablement tunisienne, les poivrons et tomates grillés, relevés d'une pincée de piment fort le tout mélangé à de l'huile d'olive et piqueté quelques olives vertes. The smokiness, for example, goes nicely with an earthy tabouna bread.

  • Home - fall Wed challenged Food » Persimmons — House fries, thin and crispy in stylish, round metal baskets.

  • Tabouna bread, soft and warm, great with grilled meats to soak up their juices

A delicious mouthful of flavors, that tender meat with the smoky aroma from the charcoal grill, a bit of spices in the salad, and crunch from fries is just too good. We all enjoyed it leisurely, even in a friendly, easygoing manner.


4. Prices and Our Receipts

Below is a definitive look at our meal as we did two orders separately, both receipts included

The prices are very reasonable and considering the fresh products, huge portions of food you receive, and the full grill experience (I like how you can choose your meat from the showcases then they cook it on charcoal for you, come to serve at table.) It is worth it.


5. My Personal Opinion and Recommendations

I cannot fault a single thing about my visit Restaurant RBAI, it was fantastic all the way through. What I particularly appreciated:

  • flawless freshness of the meat and fish kept on ice
  • The transparent service (weighing meat in front of customer)
  • The smoky flavor of charcoal grilling that permeates the taste of the meat.
  • Outdoor areas (including the): observation deck, amusement park for children
  • Friendly atmosphere, ideal for menu with friends or family

It's worth a visit if you desire real Tunisian barbecues, but go at a time where there are fewer people ordering to save the tedium of waiting beside an open fire for your dish. Do Not Skip Specials As Marinated Chicken Grills, And The Heart.

Restaurant RBAI, in other words, it is not only a restaurant without novels and cravings for you to flinch, but it is as well the place where you can have a full culinary experience, with selection of products at their height, the joy of choosing your piece of meat yourself and an environment that conveys that look joyriding to: “everything under control.”
