I tried this Egyptian food truck on Lee Rd and Wymore Tuesday at lunch. I tried the koshary for $11 because they say it is the national dish. It's a bowl of noodles, elbow macaroni, chick peas, lentils, rice and a few other things like fried onion in a light tomato sauce. It came with a hot sauce and a black pepper and vinegar sauce. A family sized portion. I found it more of a side dish. Good. A bit plain. A carb bomb. And I love carbs. Maybe not this many together. A vegan may like the legumes in lieu of meat. I just saw Hawaiin macaroni salad made on tv. They purposefully overcooked the pasta. I'm not sure if that is how this pasta is meant to be. They offer a few shawarmas and a beef liver sandwich and something like beef that I think was in dough or cheese and one other item that I think had cheese. The non-shawarmas were also $12. Two women. The younger one was doing the cooking. Parking was was a bit limited. They are aside the Chevron station just off I4. Southeast side. I'll probably keep going back until I have tried all the dishes. This is not a cuisine I am familiar with at all. The older woman said she had been the cook at the Makani on I Drive. It has closed. I went there a while ago. I kind of liked a chicken dish. If you are a Curious George then I would make the trip. I'm not sure that there is an alternative. Maybe the pizza place at UCF. They have been there for four months. They told the guy who ordered before me that they have a five star rating. I'm not sure with whom. If I go back and like another dish, I'll probably Fav them.
*I had to slide this one in. I'll do the Grub Crawl and Notes in the coming days.
