Umm Ali is “like heaven on earth”: It is safe to assume that BuzzFeed fell in love with Egyptian food after getting to sample some of our dishes. The BuzzFeed team got to try koshari, a very posh-looking hawawshi, molokhia, and have Umm Ali for dessert. You could hear one of the guys in the video saying joyously after tasting koshari: “Yep, yep, I could eat this everyday” — words you would never hear at Enterprise headquarters given our overlords’ blanket ban on the dish at our offices. Hawawshi, on the other hand, remains the breakfast of champions (runtime 02:08).
