Milk and Honey Four years ago my family and I, we decided to spend our summer vacations in Egypt. We had made an extensive research to find a perfect hotel. My father and I, we wanted to do scuba diving as in Egypt there is a beautiful coral reef. My mother was looking for an opportunity to sunbathe on a fine sand beach. And of course one of the most important requirements was a good food with a big variation of cuisines. After two weeks of research we found an ideal hotel. Everything was perfect. On the hotel territory there were beautiful trees and flowers, two big pools, amazing beach near the dark blue sea with coral reef. And the food… There was an overflow of food. You could find everything you wanted to. My favorite meal was dinner as there were a big variety of different dishes to all tastes. First, you pass near a big table with salads, appetizers and vegetables. Then a table with soups, usually there were three or four varieties. Most of all I liked broccoli cream soup. After having taking a soup you choose a main course. Every day the cooks provided guests with a wide range off seafood, meat and garnish. Near the chef there always was a waiting line. Every evening this smiling man presented a special dish. It could be grilled meat, Italian pasta, Spanish paella. It was a surprise of the day. And the confectionary table was like a cherry on top. Pastries, cakes, ice cream and my favorite one was the Egyptian dessert made of nuts and dry fruit. As it was summer there was a big assortment of ripe, fresh fruits: watermelons, melons, figs, oranges, apples… It was a real milk and honey!
