No wonder my dad has proper taste buds for quality mango

For only 2 egyptian pounds (less than 50 cents), you get, in a beer mug, this amazing sweet, pulpy, fresh juice...I can't even describe how satisfying.

I went for mango with apple and banana chunks, yogurt and strawberry.

As good as dessert, but uber healthy and delish.

Super packed by locals.

Pay this man at the desk, get your chip, and bring it to the counter

This was a definite point and eat situation!

Egypt. My half homeland

I only went to Cairo for 4 days, not knowing if the riots situation was deadly or not. I had to go because its where my dad is from!

And, turned out my hostel selection was 1 block away from the rioting square!

Dahab Hostel, was the best place ever, only 5$ a night for my own room, shared ghetto bathrooms. Met amazing people, had too much shisha, and want to go back for much longer.

I will remember 3 things in my 2 days in Jordan, Petra... aside from their dates.

# 1 The amazing view's of the lost city, Petra

# 2 Going into a random cave in the dessert with wine, beer, candles, my gals, and Jordanians. 

# 3 Men with Eyeliner / Jack sparrow's twin

Concluding Israel...

Bethlehem

Old City, wailing wall and dome of the rock. 

I miss saturday nights on Benny Yuda already!

Good times I will miss!

nice stand... bad coffee..

I had to bargain like crazy, since I don't look, yet AM half arab haha.
but I chose the touristy, later found out, least approved by locals stand outside Jaffa gate in Jerusalem.

I had amazing turkish coffee later on to make up for it!

Best burger I ever had in my life...

  It really was the best thing I ever ate.

Meat cooked to perfection.

Veal and lamb burger, medium well done. 

Forget ketchup and mustard and go for the selection of 2 amazing homemade sauces to accompany your burger... which are in unlimited sqeezy bottle-ness.

1st: sweet chili sauce, orange color

2nd: smoky spicy BBQ sauce. 

My only complaint being a toppings lover, is to add more then just lettuce and pickle... and pretty pricy for a burger. But it was so damn good, it did not really matter...

Moses Station restaurant, Tel Aviv.

It was jam packed, so thank God I was with Israelis to hunt the servers down

Bethlehem.. our cabbie turned out to own a shawarma place?

After being swarmed by cab drivers as soon as we exited the bus, the bargaining hatred turned into making a good local friend who took us around Bethlehem and to his own shawarma place (there was no getting out of it anyways!). The falafel was if not the best I've had, they threw in free salad and vine leaves.
