Last night we headed out on an evening adventure.
Where are we going?
Somewhere golden . . .
with arches!
The boys have been *dying* to try out McDonald’s here and compare it to what we have in America.
They even have happy meals!
I admit it, I’m one of those moms who never buys Happy Meals. You want me to pay extra for less food and a junky toy? How about this: I’ll pay extra for you to keep the plastic toy so it doesn’t clutter up my car/house/life and give the kids something extra to fight over.
Irony: that we have to come to Egypt to eat at McDonalds. I think the last time I was at a McDonald’s was when I took the boys to the one with the play place back in 29.
Something different about McD’s Egypt is that they will deliver your order to your house on a scooter.
They do LOTS of deliveries!
So what did we have? 2 McArabia burgers which are like regular McD patties (seasoned ME style) inside flat bread with lettuce, tomato, and a yougurt type sauce — basically a Mc Gyro.
we also tried a 1/4 lber w/cheese, a Big Tasty (I guess the “and” got lost in translation), some fries (of course!), and a coke.
the verdict?
Everyone looks pretty happy, don’t they?
The McArabia was surprisingly good. I didn’t like the Big Tasty cause it had a weird white cheese on it (but Bob liked it). The 1/4 lber tasted pretty close to normal, whether that’s good or bad, I’ll leave up to you to decide. The fries were just as good . . . mmmmmm, salty fries. And the coke was better (sugar always wins over HFCS). So McD’s Egypt gets 5 thumbs up from us.
