A Heavenly Egyptian Eatery! Cilantro Beef Pie That Will Blow Your Mind
If it weren’t for my coworker’s strong recommendation, I’d never have ordered this at a Mediterranean spot… But one bite in — I was completely converted! 😍 🏠 Cilantro Mediterranean Cuisine 📍 Super close to 9th & 10th St Patco stations! ✨ Must-order: Hawawshi – a freshly baked cilantro-beef pastry, so crispy it crackles with every bite! 💰 $28 for a HUGE portion – easily two meals for one person. The savory beef mixed with fragrant cilantro is a match made in heaven 🤤 🍹 Drink rec: Laziza Malt Drink – a classic Egyptian beverage Go for the pomegranate flavor! Refreshing and not too sweet. It’s non-alcoholic, so perfect even if you’re driving 🚗 🍰 Sweet tooth? You’re in luck: They have an innovative Baklava – served with ice cream and pistachio mousse (see pic 3!) The owner gifted me this one – so good! 😄 Also worth trying: Om Ali, a traditional Egyptian dessert. Sadly, I was too full to try it all in one visit 😭 💬 Final thoughts: Fair prices, authentic flavors, and generous portions. A true hidden gem in Philly! #PhillyEats #EgyptianFood #CilantroBeefPie #MediterraneanCuisine #PhillyFoodFinder #HiddenGems #Hawawshi #DessertLovers #FoodieReview
