I'm going to enjoy living out there! So long as I can avoid the 'Egyptian Tummy'......

[awahee123]

Can anyone tell us if there are any traditional Egyptian restaurants that you may know of,also what are the main dishes.
There is a lot of Italian restaurants in Egypt as well as others but I don't seem to remember any real Egyptian Cuisine.

[propertastic]

What actually is Egyptian cuisine anyway?

I'm guessing it's like Lebanese (which is wonderful)

[queenie40something]

aish - bread
bba ghanoush - baked aubergine with tahini, spices and garlic
bamia - meat and okra stew
bastermah - dried cured beef
beid hhamin - egyptian slow cooked eggs
belah - dates
besara - mashed broad beans
falafel - blend of broad beans, parsley,garlic and herbs and fried
feteer meshaltet - puff pastry with dips
fool medames - broad bean stew
hammen - pidgeon
kuftat - spiced meatballs
maashi - stuffed veg

Enjoy - me and hubby just had Wednesday special over the road at our local ruby. Any starter, main,side dish, rice dish, naan and coffee for £10 a head bargain!!

[propertastic]

A lot of it is like Lebansese then.

Excellent!

I love Lebanese, but the only ones in Prague and Riga were insanely expensive and so I could only ever afford to go there for a special treat.

Probably now I will be eating Egyptian every day and going to McDonlads for a special treat!
