The capital of Jordan Amman attracts tourists not only by its ancient history, numerous attractions and shopping opportunities. In addition, many lovers of Arabic cuisine find here what they like. There are many cafes and restaurants in different price categories. No one can leave even outdoor food indifferent. For example, even the most common shawarma there is very tasty. I can also recommend a very tasty Falafel dish in a pita, which costs about 80 rubles. This dish is a very tasty sauce. And the Falafel himself represents balls from the pea of chickpeas with spices, which are frying in a large amount of oil.
It is also a dish sometimes in a cafe is not served in a panel, but separately on a plate with a vegetable salad. Also in Amman restaurants you can try such national dishes as a Kufta, Maglube, Mansaf. Kufta is a small cutlelers, with parsley, tomatoes in tomato sauce cooked in the oven. I recommend it to everyone to try and learn how to cook yourself, it is not difficult.
Also, this dish can be prepared with other sauces, for example, with Takhin. Maglube is nothing more than pilaf of lamb or other meat with vegetables. There can be used any roasted vegetables.
For example, eggplants, potatoes, cauliflower, bell pepper and tomatoes. Usually, this pilaf is laid out on a huge tray and everyone eats straight from it. Separately, it is preparing finely chopped vegetable salad with parsley and lemon. As well as Kufu, Many Arbians love with sour cream. Rice in this pilaw is pre-roasted and is obtained very tasty and crumbly. And Mansaf is soup with meat, special seasonings and more sour cream. And he is an amateur, I am not. Even in Jordan there is a pretty tasty soup called Mlouchia. This soup is usually out of chicken with the addition of green grass, which smell resembles ordinary tea. Tomatoes and a large number of garlic are added there. Some more delicious soup is obtained, only cook it is necessary for quite a long time. And it is also impossible not to mention one of the favorite Arabic dishes humus. It is nothing more than a pea pasta, where lemon and olive oil are added. Jordanians love to eat it for breakfast, sometimes with Falafel and drink tea. All these dishes can be enjoyed almost in every cafe or Amman restaurant. Moreover, often in the most inconspicuous view of the cafe tourist may feed very tasty and quite inexpensive.
But for the familiar kitchens in Amman, there is a network of restaurants McDonalds, Pizza Hut and Burger King. But the eating national dishes in large shopping centers will not work. There is simply no Arabic food, only international networks. In general, food in Amman is not expensive. Depending on the cafe and selected dishes, lunch can cost from 100 to 500 rubles.
But speaking of food it is impossible not to mention the sweets. In Amman, a lot of pastry shops, where you can eat not only, but also see how one or another sweetness is preparing. There is a huge selection of a wide variety of sweets. For example, very tasty Knafa, bass. Jordanians also adore these sweets and when guests come to them or holidays are arranged, they are ordered in these confectionery huge trays of these sweets.
In addition, many fruit and dairy cocktails are for sale on Ammanskaya streets. And quite inexpensive. For example, a large glass of milk cocktail with different additives costs the entire PRU dinar. Very tasty juice from dates can also be tried in Amman.
Alcohol lovers can not please, Jordanians do not drink. And alcohol is impossible to buy in any store. It is sold in specialized, very little in the city. But in Duty Free Airport its large selection. Although there are no laws with such strict as in the emirations, but it is not worth appearing in a drunk on the street.
Tip Jordanians love for maintenance in a cafe or in the hotel can give 1-2 dinars.
For children in Amman, there is also a large selection of food. In almost any cafe there is a special children's menu and a highchair. In general, the children of Jordanians love and always forgive children's pranks. In this capital will be comfortable to everyone and everyone will find a meal to the soul and to taste.
