A Culinary Adventure in Alexandria

If you’ve dreamed of dining in legendary Alexandria, it’s time to explore its culinary ways with Eatagram!

Alexandria’s ancient vibes can be sensed on every step and in every bite of its delicious food. The city benefits from its coastal location by the Mediterranean Sea, offering travelers breathtaking views, an abundance of fresh seafood and unique dining opportunities.

What are the main specialties to try while in Alexandria?

Seafood is reasonably the cornerstone of the city’s cuisine. Alexandria is a culinary paradise for every seafood lover. Get ready for luxuriating in an abundance of grilled prawns, lobster tails, and fish fillets. If you’re a spices enthusiast, don’t miss out on trying the iconic meat stew called tagine and packed with cumin, coriander,cinnamon and cloves. It tastes and smells like heaven. Pair your meal with the typical Egyptian side dishes like rice pilaf and falafel. And don’t forget about another Egyptian must-try, the tangy tahini sauce. Absolutely worth trying!

If you’re planning to dine with friends or family, you definitely should opt for mezze. It’s a rich medley of one bite dishes, normally including baba ganoush, hummus, stuffed grape leaves, and freshly baked bread.

And be sure to save room for the divine Egyptian desserts. We absolutely recommend the honey soaked baklava and the Arabic dessert, made from goat cheese and sugar syrup, called kunafa. Complement your sweet delights with the iconic karkadeh or a cup of freshly brewed coffee.

So, take your time and luxuriate in a laid-back beachside night out in Alexandria.
