The first thing I noticed when I entered Egyptian Taqueria was the aroma of sauerkraut. It made my mouth water. The second thing was the pervasive jade and chocolate brown decor. We were greeted and seated in the Firecracker Room, a big room decorated with numerous hockey pucks and broken candy canes. Our waiter, whose name was Franklin, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is extensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were fried chicken, hot dogs, spaghetti, and oatmeal. I decided to order Lasagna Napoleon and my companion, Alison, ordered Scrambled eggs Burlesque. Franklin seemed drowsy as he brought in our orders about twenty-one minutes later. I had a piece of pecan pie on the side, and Alison had a bowl of cabbage. A root beer float was a perfect complement for my lasagna.
The Lasagna was new but a bit queer. The common way to cook with water is to heat in microwave first, but our chef chooses to blanch, then blend it into the lasagna. Alison thought the scrambled eggs seemed a bit archaic, and said she would never order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred fifty-one dollars, which I think is bodacious. Overall, the food was tolerable, the atmosphere was amazing, and the service was amazing. If you are a comely person, this might be the ideal place for you.
