Egyptian Delights

Egyptian Delights is a food vendor and catering company that has a stand at the La Jolla Open Aire Farmer’s Market. I had the pleasure of enjoy a variety of their homemade Sambusas. They cost a dollar each or you can get 6 for $ 5, which is the better deal if you have a big appetite or intend to share (
).
I order to orders of six, six for me and six for my fellow Unilocaler Ali. She went all beef because they were out of the spinach and cheese, but I went for four beef, two chicken, and since I bought 12, the nice lady threw in a potato sambusa for me to try.
All the sambusas came tightly wrapped and nicely fried to golden brown (
). My favorite was the beef with vegetables. They came with a good amount of spiced ground beef and tender and still quite vibrant vegetable (
). The chicken was good, but they could of used more of that tender tasty chicken in them. They too came with the same vegetables. The potato sambusa was okay. I thought it was just two soft all the way through, but a good vegetarian alternative. The six sambusas, well actually seven, if I include the potato one, were actually quite filling.
They also make gyros, shawerma, and breakfast pitas. The mother and son combo are quite nice and always busily working making some great food. You can find them every Sunday at the La Jolla Open Aire Farmer’s Market.
