Ful Medames exceeded every expectation

I went in with low expectations — I'd had mediocre versions before. What I found was Ful Medames made with real commitment to coriander seed and technique. The earthy and warming result was more complex and satisfying than anything I'd had before.

Egyptian cuisine is one of the oldest recorded food cultures, with accounts dating to pharaonic times. The a family home dinner was exactly right for this kind of eating. karkadeh hibiscus tea was offered as the natural choice and it elevated everything. When a dish you thought you knew surprises you completely, that's worth celebrating. Five stars without hesitation.
