Feasting in Egypt

Felfela

One of the great things about

travel is to try new things.  We

love to sample the local cuisine

as we go from place to place.

Last night we ate at Felfela.

It came highly recommended

to us.

We are traveling with a vegetarian

and when we asked about veggie

restaurants we were told no one

in Egypt is vegetarian.  But, they do

eat a lot of vegetables so this

restaurant would be great for us.

It was...

Hummus, tahini, kebab, kofta

& falafel as light as a feather 

~ it was all delicious!

When we asked for directions at our

hotel it was decided it was much

easier to have one of the young boys

in the family walk us there.  He took

us through deserted alleyways and

then we were right at the restaurant.

After he left I asked, "How will we

get home?"  The reply was,

"We'll take the dark alley to the

even darker alley!"
