That was me last week when the a/c was broken. Hey maybe you know...Do they have plain tortilla chips here in Egypt?

I don't know. Carrefour has a Mexican food section (complete with hard shell tacos) so you might want to check there.

Here's one for you, Olivia. I was so excited because I found a Mexican restaurant out on one of my walks. The next time I saw it my husband was with me, so we went inside to check it out. There was NOTHING Mexican about the place but the name. I was so disappointed.

Olivia, it's not that hard to make tortillas, and chips are nothing but sliced up and fried tortillas. Maybe you could give that a try if you don't have any luck at a western-ish type of food place.

Ah yes homemade are always the best. I had to search womeg for tortilla chips and came up with tortilla's being sold here. Now to just find them. Otherwise I can make my own but that would require corn meal and masa. I could do the flour ones but it's not the same. I wish I thought of this before and brought my own and a tortilla press. I (L) chips and salsa. On that note do they have jalapeños here? I haven't seen the serrano pepper at any of the markets yet.

I was trying to think of a way to bring my favorite mexican foods with me... I decided that i could bring the meat seasoning packets with me for fajitas and tacos and then just eat them with pita... everything else for them is pretty much available, if i made the salsa from scratch. though i was trying to figure out how i could make enchiladas and started thinking of bringing a package of flour tortillas with me :P I have such a hard time making food when i'm there between the combination of not being able to find necessary ingredients, and realizing how much i rely on canned/packaged/etc foods.

I know. Everything has to be done fresh here which makes it hot in the kitchen! I was making food in the kitchen in 100 degree weather for an hour and a half the other night. No mercy! I like it when Waleed can help. I really would like it if I could make homemade tortilla's and fry up chips when ever I want and make salsa! I'd be a happy happy happy bee even if it's all fresh by me! Heck I may even start my own Mexican food place here if it's like that. :lol: Once you get the tortilla's down everything else from scratch is easy like enchilada's, chimichanga's, burrito's, ect. In miss me some Mexican food. *drools*
