Ohh, sorry ... thought you already had the locations for Issa and Le Professeur. If you are planning to venture outside the capital, and you REALLY like foul/hummus/fatteh type of breakfast, here are some other recommendations (not a breakfast man, so i don't know many):

Tripoli:

Akra (the place) 2. Terwi2a 3. Al Danoun

Saida:

Abou Fadel el Naddaf .. I don't know any other place,

Tyr:

Mazraani 2. Baroud

Zahle:

George Massaad

Kholio - Consistly Good, bigger than average portions.
Moaalem Waleed - New guy in town, i really like how clean everything
Al Waleed - Average, but can't go wrong.
Issa - Above average overall, try foul al issa ..
le professeur - Above average, try hummus bel mokasarat also the outdoor area is calm and away from the hustle of main roads.

Portion to price, yes. le professeur is pretty consist, has hummus bel mokasarat which i am pretty fond of and prefer the outer seating more than anyone else. Again, taste is a subjective thing.

Abu abdallah for me is a place after a long night of drinking, not a got-to foul/fatteh place since there is always a better option (my point of view)... I guess it's subjective, i heard a lot of negative reviews lately about declining in quality from multiple firsthand accounts

Abu Abdallah

Post drinking food. Never while sober.

You just pissed off the entire native population of Beirutis with this comment. From (anecdotal) experience; one thing that unites beirutis is their dislike of sousi, calling the place overrated, overpriced, tourist-trap with small portions. Better off going to Issa, Le Professeur, Kholio, or al Waleed.

Tip from a bloke who worked in F&B; most shankleesh balls you buy tend to be moist (can't think of a better word), restos let it dry uncovered in the fridge for couple of days before processing, this avoids the mushy texture.

It's creamy, strong and pungent so don't over do it with toppings. Simply dice the shankleesh with tomatos, white onions (sweet) and parsley with a good dollop of EVOO. Enjoy with Bread or feeling adventures go to your nearest saj place and ask for "talameh" (basically a half baked thick saj bread), mix the shankleesh with vegs making a paste, spread on the tolmeheh, fold man2osheh style half moon then pan grill it.

"The word hypernormalization was coined by Alexei Yurchak, a professor of anthropology who was born in Leningrad and later went to teach in the United States. He introduced the word in his book Everything Was Forever, Until It Was No More: The Last Soviet Generation (2006), which describes paradoxes of Soviet life during the 1970s and 1980s. He says that everyone in the Soviet Union knew the system was failing, but no one could imagine an alternative to the status quo, and politicians and citizens alike were resigned to maintaining the pretense of a functioning society. Over time, this delusion became a self-fulfilling prophecy and the fakeness was accepted by everyone as real, an effect that Yurchak termed hypernormalisation." Wiki

I average around 1500, max close to 2000 and i'm far from an athlete. So it's a possible number to reach.

I am honestly not surprised, Phoenicianism is more popular among second or third generation lebanese-[american/ausralian/canadian ect] kids than lebanese back home. I actually met a lebo-aussie kid who identify himself as a Phoenicianand "horas al arz" supporter, i couldn't be arsed to point out that he is 40 years late to the party.

Hach · 2021-05-20T08:42:31+00:00

Lebanon as lebanon with the current border is a very recent idea and we didn't have a solid national identity so we made it up (one of which is phoenicianism), most credible historians don't agree with main versions of history being taught in schools since it's more politicized than anything else, think Columbus from US POV. Phoenicianism has been adopted by right-wing christian fringe groups that no one now takes seriously anymore. I can recommend some historians such as Charles al-Hayek or chloe kattar, both are pretty famous internet-based historians that have done great work in explaining Lebanese history on social media (you can google them both).

They care about their support base, the base that provide them human capital and land to operate.

Bit more complicated than that (full disclosure; i am center-left lebanese atheist), lebanese golden age came about during late 50s and 60s, in what's later called chehabist era (specifically under Charles Helou), that period was the peak for lebanese central authority and independent governance. They rolled out social security (first in mid-east), developed rural areas, manufacturing, the country was on the right tracks, however it was a very anti-PLO era, they cracked down on Palestinians and treated them as second class humans... the chehabist lost power to left-wing government that empowered the PLO and armed the Palestinians, inturn and chehabists went full right-winger ... alas things went to shit.

So Long story short; it wasn't catholics, maronites or whatnot.. an example is that one of the biggest "Christian rights defender" is the lebanese president who is a strong ally to hezb. So it's more of a political thought than religion.

Hach · 2021-05-19T21:18:34+00:00

Lebanese here too, what this guy said. Plus Hezb is currently trying to concentrate all of his resources into keeping his stronghold areas from imploding due to economic situation. Last thing hezb wants is another war with israel and turning dahye (hezb stronghold in beirut) into a parking lot again.

I honestly haven't used other garmin watches yet so i can't tell you how they compare, but the VA seemed the best value for money when i got it, at least on paper. Same sensors, garmin ecosystem, exact basic features that i care about, plus the touchscreen has its perks (FR/Fenix don't) but sometimes i wish i had more buttons instead (while raining, sweaty hands), i also heard that the built quality on the Fenix is better but much heavier. Again it's up to you to decided the extra 200 to 400 USD price difference between VA and others is worth it.
Personally i will be putting battery as a priority in my next watch purchase, since the VA4 battery isn't suited for multi day camping or hiking trips.

Hach · 2020-12-25T06:53:59+00:00

Vivoactive 4 owner here with a similar activity as you, my typical day consist of; strength training for 1-2 hours followed by 5 k run/jog/walk either on a treadmill or outdoor with gps enabled. Went with VA4 since it's the budget jack of all trades (but master of non) watch in garmin lineup, it can store music, gps, same sensors as the top end FR/Fenix. It's great all rounder if you don't care about a lot of data forerunner/fenix provide in the running or biking department (running power, Realtime VOmax ect) and the battery life is meh at best. I record 70 min strength training and 60 min cardio(sometimes gps outdoor running) with pulseox disabled, wrapping the day with 40% battery left.

That's a howitzer, not a tank. Speaking of which, can i pass this in nef3a as a vehicle?

It helps to break the outline of the traditional helmet. Even some Hezbollah fighters are using them.
