History
Comptoir Libanais began in the UK, where, according to its official website, founder Tony Kitous's childhood dream became a reality. The site states that Comptoir brings Tony's love of Middle Eastern and North African food and culture and invites the world to taste it. The brand's Our Story page recounts that Tony arrived in London in 1988 with no money, no contacts and no expectations, took whatever work he could in the trade, and learned the restaurant business from the ground up. When the opportunity to open his own restaurant arrived, he opened Levant, which the page describes as welcoming everyone and making great food and new flavours accessible to everyone.
