Mariasha Loves Cooking And Eating


Mariasha Sabola has sent her photo from Cairo, Egypt. Mariasha is college student. This Cairo Girl loves cooking and eating. Mariasha tells that Egypt is home of delicious dishes. If you’re feeling particularly adventurous on your holidays, Egypt is the perfect place to try something you’ve never had before! Mariasha writes in her email that one of the national delicacies is Hamaam – roasted pigeon stuffed with rice and spices. If you want to dine in, you’ll never be short of a place to eat. Visiting the colourful cafes and restaurants with owners who beckon you to their establishments is often as much of an experience as the food itself. You can choose from an exciting array of dishes and titbits, and the Mezzo is a great way to sample a wonderful selection of flavours. Try stuffed vine leaves; roasted and mashed aubergines; Tarsi – a variety of vegetables soaked in brine; Tahina – oil paste with sesame seeds; Baba Glamour – a mixture of the Tahina and garlic and mashed eggplant; and Humous – mashed chickpeas and Tahina paste. You can wash it all down with the delicious local dark beer – Aswanli.




In the end Mariasha says that don’t be surprised if you don’t see any cutlery on the table – just use your bread as both fork and spoon.
