Eating well and heartily is part of the Jordanian traditions,
and there are many fine restaurants that offer a wide selection
of authentic arabic food at reasonable prices.
Hotels offer a mixed menu of arabic and continental cuisine. Dishes to try are
the national dish, Mansaf, a whole stewed lamb with cooked yoghurt sauce served
on a bed of rice. Another dish which is Musakhan, chicken with onions, olive
oil, pine seeds and seasoning. Cooked in an oven on a thick loaf of Arabic bread;
Maglouba, a meat or fish and vegetable stew served with rice; and of course,
the basic Shish Kabab, pieces of lamb, marinared chicken and patties of minced
and spiced lamb meat all cooked over a charcoal fire with onions and tomatoes.
Locally produced beer, wine, and spirits are available throughout the country,
as are imported drinks.
Bottled water is available, in addition to imported sparkling water.
