The Egyptian restaurants in Spain are not as abundant as those in other Arab countries, such as Morocco. This is due to its geographic remoteness and a smaller number of people with this nationality. In addition, many of them actually mix different proposals of the cuisine of the Mediterranean Levant. However, they are no less interesting and, for sure, you will find typical Egyptian dishes, like the ones we have been telling you about in this blog:
Baba Ganoush
,
Fatteh
Tahini… So in this post we have made a list that will be useful to know, especially if you live in any of these cities or you plan to travel to them at some point.
