Tunis - Le Capitole:: Cheap & basic

by Willettsworld

This restaurant is well located along Ave Habib Bourguiba and, indeed, you get a good view of the road from its high vantage point. I settled on the set menu at just TD5.800 which had salads and Hors d'oeuvres for starters, cous-cous, chicken and other meat dishes for mains. I had a salad followed by steak Dinine (turkey) which was a slab of thinly cut meat with fries. The food and general atmosphere are cheap so don't expect anything fancy. This place is ideal if on a budget and so the food reflected this.

Best food in Port El Kantaoui: Le Mediterranee

by kathrynpa

This is a better class restuarant for Tunisia and has a smoking and non-smoking section which is unusual for this resort.Excellent menu choices and the chef does a special menu on a Saturday evening. Excellent wine choices too and if you like a red try the Magon - a local Tunisian wine which is great.Closed on Tuesdays I had a seafood taglietelle which was amazing, also had a beef fillet and a salmon pasta - all beautifully cooked and presented.My husband (who loves his desserts) had an amazing chocolate mousse and also a pastry and apple filo tart with homemade vanilla ice cream.Make sure you try this restuarant, not too expensive either - main courses start from about £5 or £6.

Cafes

by maykal

Seemingly every street in Tunisia has a cafe, so you never have to walk far to get a caffeine fix. Most of them are men-only affairs, places where men gather to escape the house for a few hours, catch up on gossip over coffee or tea and maybe a chicha pipe, certainly a full packet of cigarettes. Some play cards, others play backgammon. If there's a television, it'll either be showing music channels or football, in which case it'll be packed. Some are very local, and you feel very much an outsider if you venture inside, but the ice soon breaks, especially if you try and speak some Arabic. In some cafes, they have waiter service, in others you have to order at the bar. In many places, waiters may decide before speaking to you that you don't speak a language they know, and therefore render you invisible. People will be served around you almost immediately, but no amount of waving or...

Snack food

by maykal

All over Tunisia's cities and towns, you'll find stalls and shops selling a variety of snacks, the main one being the humble sandwich. It comes in many different forms...Cassecroute - half a baguette, usually stuffed with some sort of meat or chicken, olives, tuna, cheese and hot harissa sauce.Shawarma - like shawarma anywhere else in the Middle East...meat carved from a spit and wrapped in breadMtabgha - a round, doughy loafMlawi - pancake-like breadThese last two are usually the cheapest options, and you can point to what you want inside from a choice of tuna, hard-boiled eggs, cheese (usually those foil-wrapped triangles), salata mechouia (mashed peppers and tomatoes), harissa (chilli and garlic sauce), merguez (bright red sausages), olives (with stones!) and sometimes chopped up omelettes. Patisseries are fantastic for breakfast...croissants, pains au chocolat, pains au raisin...all...

Dining out in Tunisia

by barryg23

Eating out in Tunisia can be extremely good value, especially if you stick to local restaurants. Most of the restaurants we visited were cheap, local places where the average cost of a main course was 4-5 Dinar. Occasionally we went to some of the pricier restaurants, but usually this was only when we wanted wine with our meal or on a special occasion, such as my birthday which fell during our visit. In addition to saving money, visiting a local restaurant also allows you to meet the locals. The food in some local places may not be so good so I suggest you ask around or check if it's popular with the locals. Both the Lonely Planet & Rough Guide books had excellent coverage of budget, local restaurants.

La Brise: Simply good

by tolovajka

You can easily find this little restaurant, located in one of the main streets that leads to the center of Hammamet. Local people loves eating here, which is a good sign for the quality of the restaurant. In fact the food is very good and the prices too! Lovely briqs and ojjas, fresh sea food. Briq with tuna; stuffed squid.
