Eat like an Egyptian…… The Pyramid Cafe

On Thursday 21st April P2/3/4 and ASD2 held their Sharing the Learning event in school. Pupils from P2/3/4 presented about the learning that had taken place and one of the pupils from ASD2 invited everyone to come to the Pyramid Cafe.

In room 7 ASD2 pupils had set up a cafe, taking on various roles, from sous chef (who helped to plate up all the goodies), to cashier, to waiters and kitchen porters. Pupils and staff had worked hard to research and make the kind of foods that were served in Egypt. We made 3 different types of falafel (a vegetarian snack), served hummus with pitta bread and made Tiger Nut Sweets using dates, nuts and honey.
The recipe for Tiger Nut Sweets is the oldest one that is known and made today. It was found, written on hieroglyphs on a piece of clay many years ago.

Pupils, staff and parents certainly looked as if they enjoyed the experience.IMG_0688
