 Gastronomy

Cold (houmous, an olive oil chickpea puree; baba ghanoudj, a garden-egg and sesame puree; bastorma, a paprika beef) or hot (burek, a sort of cheese pasties; kebbé, fried minced meat balls). Mezzes are served as starter, but could fill you as much as a complete meal. Mutton (shish kebab) or chicken (shish taouk) kebabs are dishes you will find even in the smallest restaurant. Honey and pistachio-based pastries are very appetising. Have a taste of the arrack, the local anisette, pure or diluted.
