I'm surprised you managed to find a picture of Khan El Khalili, where it looks CLEAN and not unhumanly crowded!
(great post& great pics as usual)-

Your blog is a gem. Always refreshing to see your views and pictures. The quality of your posts and the effort you put in them is very much worth it. Keep up the good work, you must be a very refined lady.

I can't tell you how much that single photo of Khan AlKhalili brought back memories. It's been entirely too long...so thank you for the reminder.

Thanks for taking part Twosret! I love your approach to it: adding pictures. Really beautiful and much more evocative!

Leilouta said...

Oh Khan El-Khalili :) I love that place. I will never forget my first visit there. I was stopped by a store owner who asked me where I was from. He got really excited when I told him I was from Tunisia. He then told me that Latif El Arfaoui visited his store and took pictures with him and that she was really nice. I had a nice time talking to him.

Thanks for tagging me. My first thoughts were 15 foods, is that bad?

Leilouta said...

One of them was Kushari btw :P

Felfela,

I had to search very hard for pictures on this entry. It saddens me that there aren't many good pictures for Egypt.

LW, Jannah, Steve, Ha ana Za

Thank you guys I appreciate your positive feedback, at least someone saw more than mother Theresa in me (winks@sholmes)

Highlander,

Can't wait to see your list

Leilouta,

You are welcome and yes food came to mind too but once I was thinking places it took over the craving. I'm sure I will laugh looking at your list.

Alb Sayed,

Khan El Khalili is very special place as Leilouta said.
