Madameek is the Arabic word for “Courses”. Why this name? Using the word in the architectural sense, it means “a continuous horizontal layer of brick or stone”.

Madameek Restaurant is an inspiration from a book, which is mostly about “one single outer wall, Lebanon’s southern wall… For over a century, this wall has carried the bulk of the country’s burden. Had its stones not been hard and fit tightly within the wall, the building would have disintegrated and fallen under the pressure of many events over time”.

Madameek “are the people and tribes; they are cultures, traditions, beliefs, and religious sects, all of which at one time or another shared in consolidating Lebanon to make it, in essence, unique among all surrounding countries”.

Madameek Author, Col. C. Barakat, said: “… I tried to teach the students the importance of the land they live on, the need for good relations with everyone and the meaning of a real peace. I do not know if I managed to positively influence any of them but I remember that many of them influenced me. I was particularly impressed by a smart, enthusiastic and energetic young boy of 12 who filled the playground and the school with life. I was destined to meet the same boy again in Canada after the 2000 exodus and this time he touched my life closely. This was Trooper Marc Diab”.
