[quote=Anonymous]Earlier pp here. It is of course nice to serve them something from the Middle East but at the same time slightly weird. It's like preparing pasta for someone Italian or cooking Chinese for someone who is Chinese. It's like you go to their home in Riyadh or Jeddah and instead of serving you mix of Saudi or middle eastern dishes, they would serve you hamburgers because you are American.... The PP's situation is slightly different because her husband is Egyptian, so it looks less weird that she's serving middle eastern dishes to her guests. Especially that you wouldn't be able to get the taste right for many middle eastern dishes anyway unless you know someone who knows how they should taste and can advise you (trust me on this one, as weird as it reads from an anonymous poster :). I'd prepare some signature dishes that you'd normally serve.[/quote]
