Wandering Tea Vendor's by eirekay

Cairo - Egypt, Al Qåhirah These wandering tea vendors are all over Cairo, although we only once saw one anyplace else. They wear a standard uniform of striped shirts and baggy striped pants, a hat like shown here and knee high rubber boots. He washes the glasses after each use with a water faucet on the other side of this contraption. While I worried a little about catching some bug, I gave it a try. The tea was a little bitter but tasty!

Nicely captured. here-i-come - Jul, 20 2008 11:07am Thats a cheerful snap of the fella and was it warm or lukewarm or hot that you were served with? Unless one is awesomely & adequately vaccinated, it will be a concern for foreigners to give a taste to it... eirekay - Jul, 21 2008 01:07pm Cold tea and I was assured it was boiled when brewed. I knew it was chancy but i drank it anyway.
