Stuffed Pigeon at Al-Omda's


Al-Omda is a word used for "Mayor" in the smaller towns and villages in Egypt. This restaurant had been recommended for several things including the ful, koshari, and the atmosphere. One thing that hadn't been recommended for this specific restaurant was the stuffed pigeon. It was the first time any of us had ever seen it on a menu before, so we had to try it. It was a bit greasy for my taste, but the koshari was indeed impressive, as was the ful. I think that I'll have to try the stuffed pigeon at the restaurant that was actually recommended before passing judgement.
