Today’s Egyptian cuisine is the result of thousands of years of trade and culinary introduction
Culinary culture is a living heritage. While some foods can boast ancient Egyptian origins, others are more recent introductions such as the umami-rich tomato sauce drenching most of our vegetables. As these traditions and novelties were absorbed into Egyptian culinary practices, they became Egyptian.

About that award. Have you ever heard of a Falafel festival? We hadn’t either. In 2016, we were invited to participate in London’s first Falafel Festival in the historic Borough Market. We won a trophy for our Falafel Taameya recipe. This trip taught us that the grass is not greener on the other side; it’s greener on the inside of our Fava Bean Falafel that earned us the Best Falafel title.
