Topic: Matt, there is a Middle Eastern restaurant near me that claims they serve authentic cuisine.
Catherine !ttGirlsPl2 started this discussion 7 years ago #84,429
However, according to one Yelp review, the food isn't halal as the owner gets their meat from a Mexican grocery store.
Should I try this or is it just not authentic?

I just might. I heard they also serve gyros so it must be more authentic than Arby’s.

What part of the middle East?

Middle East is not a very large area. Perhaps like Mexican food where Taco Bell is somewhat different than Del Taco's cuisine.
Unless Catherine's restaurant serves Camel, it's probably only moderately trying to represent some part of the Middle East.

Of course they do, the meat is plentiful. The rest of that post is incorrect though.

@970,104 (Catherine !ttGirlsPl2)Good catch at my reply 2U - Yet in fact Camel is popular in the Middle East and this photo is from Egypt which some say is in the Middle East - It's also a Kosher Meat IF a Rabbi is near by.
Back when ducky was in travel back to her home country of Egypt I pulled up this photo but you can hit Google and C 4 Self how popular Camel is - When you order you do have to specify One Hump Camel or Two Hump Camel - People's tastes do vary.

Well Ceems a little humor on food was lost upon you - Anyway Let me say this about food in the Middle East - From my point of view it is among the MOST WONDERFUL FAVORITE Food I have enjoyed.
Alas here in USA such wonders are limited to such few examples - Alas a great Gyro is nice but I never actually had one in Mid East - When I spent 6 Months for Qualcomm in Israel the local managers of Qualcomm insisted on taking me out to dinner about 3 nites + a week and they always without exception chose the Arab Restaurants - The best food was at Druze Arab places. Few if any of you are aware of Druze's as a sect of Arabs.

Alas on look up not a single Druze restaurant in USA

If it can be Kosher and Camel can be - then of course Camel is

Rules for Halal and Kosher are similar. 2B Kosher one has to follow those hard rules Jews have and a special Rabbi has to inspect the plant and often the food operation has to have a Rabbi on staff.
No expert on Halal but places a bet it's a set of rules but does not require a high ranking Rag Head to watch over the killing and bleeding of animal. There are also a few ways some Rag Heads get around Allah's rules.

Well to be fair Syntax probably is more of an expert in Middle Eastern food than Matt due to all the Arabs that live in El Cajon.
The only food I’d trust as authentic in the cultural hotbed of LaFayette, Louisiana re: Pedophile ZipCode ZoooOoooooOoommm is probably Cajun food and black people food.

As to Catherine’s question about camels, they do eat baby camels boiled in their mother’s milk. Camels aren’t really a widely eaten dish except for at special occasions like weddings.

It is not authentic™, unless you eat it with a metal spork.
