Tunisians have a wide variety of things for breakfast. Here are a few:

• Bssissa
• Dates (plain, or with butter, or with butter and almonds)
• Fruit
• Cereal
• Droul
• Chamia
• Hard Boiled Eggs
• Croissants
• Small cakes from the Patisserie
• Pate
• Bread (with oil, or with butter, or with jam, or with cheese)
• Yogurt

And they drink different things too:

• Coffee (any of the many varieties - cappucin, cappuccino, cafe creme, etc)
• Milk
• Tea (green, red, etc)
• Water
• Drinkable yogurt

Once a week I prepare a nice big American style breakfast - scrambled eggs, pancakes (my husband LOVES pancakes! - but not Tunisian pancakes, only American pancakes LOL), and hash browns. YUMMY!!

What, especially the female ones that go after (married) waiters for a cheap fling?Ouch!Stop, you're putting me off my (late) breakfast,lol!You're not the only one aching with laughter!

what is droul and chamia????

Chamia is a sweet mixture of tahina and sugar. There are several varieties of chamia: normal, with the dry fruits (almonds - pistachios), with almonds, with chocolate, etc. Here is a picture:

Droul is like a porridge - kinda. It is a powder that you cook with milk and/or water (I use a little of both), and sugar. You cook it on the stove over low heat constantly stirring it. It starts of really liquidy, and after the mixture boils for about a minute or two it thickens up.

Yeah...but only good looking ones.

Have you ever eaten a tourist Mamba?

I can eat everything you guys said here!!!! i love eating and all sound yummy yummy for me, but tourist s!!!!!!

Also called:
Sorghum or in French Sorgho





I usually have Coffee+milk+bread+butter for my breakfast.

This is definately an accquired taste, something I have yet to achieve. It is green and to me reminds me of gruel, but it is very popular in the town my husband is from.
