Welcome to Baghdad, Iraq! Today we’re eating the best Iraqi street food in Baghdad!
A huge thank you to Ahmet and Aya from https://enliltravels.com/ for arranging my trip to Iraq.
Kubba Saray - We’re starting in Old Baghdad to try a unique version of kubba from an old shop tucked within the book and school market.
Shabandar Café - Located on the iconic Mutanabbi Street in Baghdad, you’ll find the oldest teahouse. And I tried Nooma Basri, a dried lime tea. Afterwards, just outside I ate some classic winter Iraqi street foods including chickpeas and turnips.
Bourek Taha - Just down the road you’ll find Bourek Taha that has served the Iraqi version of bourek for generations.
Mr. Garbage Raisin Juice - This place is legendary and their raisin juice hits the spot.
Abu Hussein Iraqi Gus - Just about every country in the Middle East has their own version of shawarma, and every version is a little different. Gus is the Iraqi version of shawarma, and I was very curious to see how it tasted.
Al Qameh Restaurant - For lunch in Baghdad, Ahemet took me to one of his favorite spots for a mix of homestyle Iraqi dishes and stews including lamb quzi.
Baghdadi Restaurant - But of all the amazing Iraqi foods, Masgouf is the king of them all, a slow roasted freshwater carp fish, standing vertically with a blazing fire. This is one of the world’s greatest fire grilling bbq techniques.
Hamooqy - Finally, we headed to Hamooqy, a legendary Iraqi street food vendor to try his unique meatballs and omelets.
