Eating out- again


Dessert and chicken dishes. Lentil soup and some kind of juice.






Our group for the night and the name of the Restaurant






This time we had a guide. A teacher who lives here took us around. We ate at a real Arabic style restaurant. They treated us so great and kept bringing us things that we didn't order, like three different kinds of juice, one of which was, I believe, Tang. Our guide said it was popular here. The other two were some kind of purple juice. The food was great, very colorful and the dessert was so sweet and soaked in honey. I saw a lot of similarities to Greek food. They make a schwarma- which is like the pita's we used to get in Belgium. Then we walked he city streets, the indoor soulks, and the outdoor soulks. We walked down one alleyway which I call Abaya Alley because it's all fabric and abayas for sale. Another street is all jewelry stores, and there's a huge store for household items, similar to IKEA, only not so modern. Very nice night, ate too much and got a stomach ache of course, but it was fun.
