Lunch at Dar Ne'meh

After exploring the citadel, we were going to have a drink and a snack in the site's café but then we spotted a lovely-looking establishment in a prime position overlooking the Roman Theatre and the Odeon. We decided to have lunch there instead. It turned out to be a good choice.

The restaurant was Dar Ne'meh, a project that supports Jordanian women in home based businesses. As well as being a café, the place also sells handcrafted items.

The food was amazing! We chose 5 mezze for a cost of 10 JOD (about £12). We ordered falafel, fattoush, batata (spicy potatoes), galayet bandora (fresh tomatoes stewed with garlic and onions in olive oil), and cheeses sambousek (small cheese and black sesame pasties). These came with a huge basket of fresh flatbread 🫓. It was all delicious 😋.

After lunch, we went to a bottle shop to buy some local beer and wine and then made our way back to the hotel.

We didn't have any wine glasses but we did have glass mugs!! Just for the record, neither the beer 🍺 nor the wine🍷 were very good 😀もっと詳しく
