Yeah right, Saudi and Kuwait are next stop on the two-bit tefler trail thru MEA shitholes unspoiled by tourism. Could move anywhere in the world to ply your trade 'aye? If you say so..

In his defense and I am not one to stand up for the brittles but he has posted recently threads on here about his travels in South America and New York, so he is not taking the piss there.

Travels and where one works/lives are two entirely different things. I could fly to Monaco tomorrow for a visit, that certainly doesn't mean I could live and work there.

Exactly, which is why I said wannabe. You're not high enough up the ladder to even qualify as a fucking chav.

Precisely. I've lived and worked on 3 different continents in the last 6 or 7 years and travelled to I don't know how many countries at the same time.

What a terrible career it is.

^So go on then CT, pick up sticks and move to NY or SA or do you just prefer being tortured in that fucking shithole called Cairo

Here's some music while you think of how to dig a deeper hole, who wouldn't want to listen to this 5 times a day?

Let me return the favour, DD.

^Call me odd, but I'll take that any day over the caterwauling you've got no choice but to get aurally invaded with 5 times a day as part of your career

No I meant the sit down place you go to, or has LT got a restaurant open somewhere now?

I was referring to Tinnie's mate- when I go there, I'll do sit down. Surely that's Ok- I mean they sell schnitzel too. But will certainly be in the Outback a few times- it's not far from my place (which I haven't been to for 3 years). It will be interesting to see which local businesses have survived Covid.

LT has always got some plans hatching, he may well be working on a retail outlet.

He is, he's planning a pie outlet out front of his version of the Sydney Opera House.

We are actually in the process of setting up a bar/ restaurant/ coffee shop/ live sports and music venue and fast food outlet and hopefully will be open for business in a month or 2.

My wife is still supplying her products to local bars and cafes but our main goal is sell direct from our establishment serving meals to sit-down customers.

There are indeed much worse things.

I've worked in Cairo many times, albeit for short periods (typically 2 to 7 days) before heading back into the desert or flying home and under completely different conditions to anything CT will ever experience. The culinary offerings are dire, there is litererally nothing Egyptians can't fuck-up and food is no exception. The only realistic options of not being disappointed with eating out in that Godforsaken shithole are kebabs or foreigner owned/managed restaurants, unless you're some clueless melt who thinks anything besides beans on toast is exotic fare. Of all the Expats I worked with there, not 1 of them ever mentioned how much they enjoyed the local food but to be fair, they were normally too busy talking about their plans of getting transferred out of the fucking joint after having previously been assigned to places like Argentina, Indonesia, Australia, Canada, and so on where the food is good.

You'll find your closest Egyptian restaurant just a few doors down from the Filipino restaurant, order the kebabs

Would you rate Cairo behind Lagos as a fine dining hub?

What do the pet nickname abbreviations stand for?
I must have missed that

All good, carry on

Sorry but I didn't understand what you meant earlier when you said that you too go to Tinnies.

DD once again proving himself to be completely and utterly clueless when it comes to anything remotely local.

But what can we expect from a man who lives in the world's biggest brothel and whose idea of "eating local" is having his fish and chips in the Robin Hood served to him by Nok from Isaan.

Egypt is North Africa and the Middle East, so you've got grilled meat everywhere as well as the usual dips and stews. Add to that plenty of fish from the Med and the Red Sea, and it really would take a special kind of ignorant fuckwit to somehow not manage to eat well here.

Stick to your fish and chips and English breakfasts, you soft rock listening cockhead.

CT! Sorry for the late reply to your between-classes post me old melt, but I'm kicked back on the recliner watching Sunday sports on a rainy afternoon so like you have been quite busy today! Had a food delivery earlier for lunch, don't want to trigger you again by posting a pic but it's origins are from where I was born. It was delicioso though!

Meanwhile, you're stuck in butt-fuck Cairo with your career () of teaching towel heads English so "CT" probably doesn't sum your situation up either. Oh wait..

Is that why it's called the MEA region? Who would have thought!

Well let's get serious, when the ignorant fuckwit comes from a country where chips and an egg or beans on toast are highly desirous their opinion of food and eating well really isn't worth 3 knobs of goat shit is it...

Haven't had either for ages, might change that though if I feel like it but there's so many choices of food here there's no rush. Meanwhile, you stick to mystery meat kebabs and having no choice but to listen to the never ending Allah Snack-Bar caterwauling you worthless fucking brittle.

Dance for me CT
