Delicious Food You Have to Try in Jordan
When you travel Jordan, the food is such an important part of the trip. This food guide will provide you great tips on some delicious food and the best restaurants you absolutely have to try while visiting Jordan.
0:00 Welcome to Jordan
0:57 Hashem Restaurant, Amman - the most famous restaurant among locals and nowdays also among tourists in Jordan. This was the best falafel and hummus I have ever eaten! Great prices guaranteed.
1:39 Bars in Amman - you are in a muslim country, so certain culture must be respected and you can not buy alcohol everywhere, but you can try Books at Cafe or Somewhere Else Pub and Bar.
2:02 Ful - this local dish is typical Jordanian breakfast but today, it is commonly served as a side dish that you can eat with everything.
2:34 Dubliners Irish Pub, Dead Sea - if you need a little break from Jordanian local food, this restaurant has very tasty food to offer.
3:01 Sajiat in Sajiat Aljanoob Restaurant, Wadi Musa - the best restaurant that we have visited in Jordan. Sajiat is a typical Bedouin dish. Trying the typical lamb version is highly recommended.
3:59 Nabatean Tent Restaurant, Petra - there are 2 restaurants in Petra, Nabatean Tent Restaurant is the cheaper one, to me it seemed more authentic and the food was great. Enjoy some freshly fried falafel, hummus, arabic bread and salad, lamb, chicken, you name it. Buffet style.
4:57 Freshly Squeezed Juices, Petra - typical for Jordan, must try. They can be quite sour though.
5:11 Goat Barbeque, Wadi Rum - amazing local experience, freshly barbequed goat tastes so good.
5:49 Zarb, Wadi Rum - typical Bedouin dish cooked in underground oven. Commonly prepared by the Bedouins in the desert.
6:19 Bedouin Tea - Bedouin way of welcoming you in their tents. Very sweet taste.
6:31 Gallayat, Wadi Rum - typical Bedouin dish prepared in the middle of the Wadi Rum Desert. Beans, onions, tomatoes, peppers made on fire. Eat it with eggplant dip, sour cream dip and some arabic bread and you will have a blast.
7:24 Outro - recommendation to watch another video from the Jordanian series.

Jordanian Food and the Best Falafel I've Had!
Check out my Jordanian food guide here:
On Day 2 (which was actually the same morning we arrived, so it was really our first day in Amman), we didn’t do much other than eat some incredibly delicious Jordanian food. After having a quick breakfast at the hotel, which I showed in the first video, we then took a nap. In the early afternoon, we got started for the day, by having some of the most incredible falafel I’ve ever had in my life, and proceeding to have a few snacks, followed by an amazing Jordanian meal for dinner. Here’s a more details looks at what we did on Day 2 of our Jordan trip.
1:02 Falafel Al-Quds - For our first food stop in Amman we went to a famous place called Falafel Al-Quds, known for serving falafel sandwiches on sesame seed buns. I haven’t had all that much falafel in my life, but these were definitely some of the best falafel I’ve ever had in my life. I had the sesame seed falafel sandwich which came filled with falafel, tomatoes, tahini, chili, and some small spices and seasoning. It was simple but incredibly delicious. Sesame seed bun - 0.75 JD ($1.05)
4:56 Gerard Ice Cream - Next we walked down Rainbow street in Amman, which by the way has some fantastic little Jordanian restaurants and cafe, and stopped off at Gerard ice cream where I tried ar Arabic ice cream which is flavored by Arabic gum. It tastes sort of like a combination of vanilla and caramel. 1.70 JD ($2.39)
6:00 Wild Jordan Cafe - After walking around Amman for a bit and getting some good exercise walking around the hills, we then stopped off at Wild Jordan Cafe to hang out for a bit, drink some coffee and tea, and enjoy the great atmosphere for the cafe and of the Amman Citadel over on the next hill. It’s a really nice cafe in Amman if you’re looking to hang out.
7:26 The Delights Shop - We headed to a certain area of Amman to go to a place called The Delights Shop, known throughout Amman for having incredible dates. While they did have a selection of plain dates, they mostly had a variety of different chocolate covered dates. I had a mint chocolate covered date, which was very sweet and rich and very good. The Delights Shop in Amman is a little high end, but is a good place if you’re looking for chocolate covered dates.
8:30 Al Osrah Restaurant - Along with eating falafel, our Jordanian food local style dinner at Al Osrah restaurant was definitely the highlight of our first full day of exploring and eating in Amman. This local restaurant served all the typical dishes including hummus, moutabel, falafel again, and a dish that I particularly enjoyed - fattet hummus - which is bread that’s soaked until is basically dissolves, and mixed with hummus. While hummus is dense and creamy, the fattet hummus was much lighter and almost had the fluffy consistency of whipped cream. Our meal at Al Osrah was excellent, if you have a chance to eat there when you’re in Amman, the food they serve is wonderful.
13:01 Temriyeh Omar - For our final food stop in Amman, we went to a local spot known as Temriyeh Omar to have a Jordanian dessert called temriyeh, which is a then layer of dough, like a roti, filled with a slice of semolina cake, wrapped up into a little packet, and deep fried to a crisp. Once it’s taken out of the hot oil, it’s then dusted in powdered sugar. It was sweet, but very good.

CANADIANS TRYING FOOD IN JORDAN // JORDAN TRAVEL VLOG
We checked out some of the best food Amman and were not disappointed! We really didn't know what kind of food to expect in Jordan and were happy to discover it was all DELICIOUS! The hummus, falafel, mansaf, tabbouleh, and deep fried desserts were all incredible, but hands down the best dish we tried in Amman was knafeh (كنافة) from Habibah Sweets. We later learned that knafeh is a Palestinian dessert that can be found widely in the Middle East, so we will be scouring the entire region for more of this sweet, cheesy, goodness! We had a lot of fun trying to figure out how to order food at Hashem restaurant and topped off the day with a very strange encounter at Al Quds restaurant with a man who thought Mico might be his long lost son ????♀️

Shish Kebabs Meat Platter in Jordan!
Get more Amman travel tips, things to do, where to stay, and delicious food here:
On Day 4 of our trip to Jordan, we started off in Amman where we had a wonderful simple and local style breakfast of manakish, which are rounds of dough which are flattened, topped with simple things like zaatar and cheese, and baked in an oven. We then took a day trip to As-Salt or also just known as Salt, a historical city about a 45 minute drive from the center of Amman. The highlight of the day for me was the giant shish kebab meat platter that we ate for lunch!
00:38 Manakish - Manakish is something you’ll eat a lot of when you visit the Levant and in Jordan it’s a very popular snack and meal. Manakish is a piece of rounded dough which is flattened out and topped in a variety of different things. We ordered a manakish topped with zaatar, a special herb thyme blend, and also a couple topped with Jordanian white cheese, which is similar to halloumi cheese. They were all excellent mainly because they were baked so fresh and just used simple but delicious ingredients. Price - 1 JD ($1.41) each
04:20 Day to to As-Salt, Historic Old Salt Museum - 1 JD ($1.41) - Out main activity of the day was taking a short day trip to Salt, an ancient and historical city that was one of the commercial and trade centers of Jordan. We started off at the Historic Salt Museum, where we had a tour and learned a little bit about the importance of the city and how it influenced and shaped Jordan. We then took a stroll through Hamam street, the center old market street in Salt.
07:27 Al-Salam Restaurant - For lunch we went to a Jordanian meat bbq restaurant in the center of Salt called Al-Salam Restaurant. The first dish I tasted was the hummus ma lahma, a plate of hummus topped with minced meat fried in lard - it took hummus to the next level - it was absolutely incredible. Then came galayet with meat, a thick tomato based dish with minced meat in it as well. It was delicious with bread. From there, this Jordanian meal just got better and better. Arayes is a dish of bread stuffed with minced lamb and seasoning, then grilled over charcoal. The fat from the lamb makes the bread nearly taste like it’s deep fried because it gets so crispy, yet it’s merely grilled - and it was insanely delicious. But the ultimate winner of our Jordanian meat feast this time was the platter of shish kebabs and lamb pieces. The minced meat was mixed with parsley and seasoning, salted quite heavily, then grilled over hot charcoal. The mix and ratio of meat to fat ensured that the meat had an incredibly pronounced smoky taste. Total price - 25 JD ($35.26) for 4
14:01 Anabtawi Sweets - For dessert we took a walk down the road to a famous Jordanian sweets shop called Anabtawi Sweets, where Fadi ordered a mix of different desserts including hareeseh, one of the famous desserts, cream fingers, and warbat. They were all very sweet, but alright in small portions - I’m not a huge desserts lover. My favorite dessert was probably the warbat, it was kind of a cross between a cheese cake and baklava. What I really enjoyed about eating this dessert is the Arabic coffee that went with it. After having this cup of Arabic coffee, I was immediately hooked.
17:26 Thyme & More - Although it was unplanned at first, we decided to stop by a place called Thyme & More to taste some different and unique varieties of za’atar, a thyme and herb blend that’s very common in Jordan, and something I really loved eating. We tasted some incredible za’atar, and then the owner kindly invited us to have dinner at his restaurant where he served us some pizza and a giant calzone.

Mansaf (منسف) - The Ultimate Jordanian Food
Mansaf is the ultimate Jordanian food you should try:
Considered the national dish of Jordan, and a dish that nearly every Jordanian loves, you are bound to taste Jordan with every bite of mansaf you taste. This was my first time to ever try mansaf, and I was so happy and excited, it was incredible.
What is mansaf (منسف)?
Mansaf (منسف) is a Jordanian food that consists of three main things: rice, lamb, and jameed. The rice is often cooked with turmeric to give it a yellow color, and the lamb is cooked in jameed, and then more jameed is served on the side as a sauce for the rice and lamb. Finally, the lamb and rice is topped with a handful of fried nuts, either pine nuts or sliced almonds, and the full meal is then served with a variety of fresh vegetables like onions and arugula.
What is jameed (جميد)?
Jameed is a type of goat yoghurt that is dried and fermented and made into a hard ball shape. It’s traditionally prepared by Bedouins in the desert who preserve the goat milk by making it into jameed so that it lasts for a long time and can be used slowly. If you visit a Bedouin tent or village, you’ll often see balls of jameed resting on the roof of the tent, drying in the hot sun. For mansaf, the jameed is re-hydrated and made into a sauce, and it gives the unique signature taste and richness of the dish. I had my first taste of jameed, and it was amazing. You can really taste the goat and taste the pastures and grass and shrubs that the goats have eaten in every bite. It definitely has a bit of a meaty taste to eat.
Along with mansaf being an incredibly delicious food, one of the great things about it are all the traditions and customs that come along with eating it. It’s a typical food to eat at Jordanian festivals and celebrations. The mansaf is served on a big tray, and everyone stands around the tray, taking bites with their right hand. You pick up some rice with lamb, and douse it in jameed, then roll it into a ball shape in your palm, making sure there’s some lamb in the middle of the rice and that the entire mansaf ball is held together with jameed. One you have a ball ready, you drop it into your mouth, making sure you don’t touch your lips so that you don’t contaminate your fingers - then you repeat again. Once you are finished eating, you can then lick your fingers clean, and it’s acceptable, that’s pretty cool!
Tawaheen Al Tawa Restaurant - To eat mansaf in Amman, Jordan, we went to one of the most famous restaurants in the city, Tawaheen Al Tawa, a huge restaurant institution in Jordan. The restaurant serves all sorts of delicious Jordanian and Arabic foods, and they especially specialize in mansaf and bbq meats - we had the mansaf. Our tray came out, a pile of rice topped with a heap of lamb, and side bowls of jameed. The combination of the dish, and the method of eating it, made it one of the most memorable meals I ate when I was in Jordan. Price - About 10 - 15 JD ($14.06 - $21.09) per person

AMMAN JORDAN - CHEAP EATS FOOD guide - July 2022
This is a Food guide to great food, low price and local joints in Amman Jordan during my visit in July 2022. Food is somewhat reasonable but when you go out to real trendier restaurants of lounges, the prices are like western countries and there is service charge and tax added to bill. If you go to local places or fast food, you can eat fairly cheaply.
We ate so much here and OD'd on food esp street food. It's a fun place to travel.

Arabic Food in Jordan - HUGE MAQLUBA (مقلوبة) Upside Down Chicken Rice Platter!
Get more Amman travel tips, things to do, where to stay, and delicious food here:
On Day 5 of our trip to Jordan we traveled outside of Amman, first to Dana Village in the Dana Biosphere Reserve. We had an incredible local lunch, and were served a dish called muqlaba, which literally translates to upside down - it was an incredible local meal. Finally, we moved onto Petra, and after checking into our hotel, we went to Petra by Night.
00:23 Breakfast and Leaving Hotel - To begin the day, I had a quick breakfast as the hotel in Amman, and then we packed everything up and headed off to do some traveling around Jordan. Driving towards the Dana Biosphere Reserve, we took our time, stopping off at a variety of different rest stops. One of the things I grew to love immensely while traveling in Jordan was Arabic coffee, and the good news is that coffee was available at every rest stop along the highway.
1:41 Maqluba (مقلوبة) at Dana Biosphere - The Dana Biosphere is a nature reserve in Jordan. The reserve is home to a variety of different natural environment, and starts on a plateau and descends all the way down in the Wadi Rum valley. The views of the valley were incredible. We continued driving until we reached the Dana Village, located on a hill overlooking the valley - it’s a historic town in Jordan, and they are trying to renovate certain areas of it - it’s an amazing little village. They had set up for us to have a local Jordan food lunch at a home within the village, so after walking around for a little while, we went inside to have lunch. There’s a famous Middle Eastern, Arabic dish, that’s also very common in Jordan called muqluba (مقلوبة), which directly translates to upside down. The reason it’s called upside down, or flipped over, is because the dish is cooked in a big pot, with meat and spices, or in this case chicken, topped with rice all in the same pot. When the dish cooks, all the flavors start to mingle and blend to create another incredible dish. When it’s finished cooking, the pot is flipped over onto a tray, so the rice goes to the bottom, while the meat stays on top - that’s the upside down part. After the rice and chicken was flipped onto the tray, it was then topped with lots of chopped up parsley, fried peanuts, and finally some lemon slices for decoration. The dish was incredible, the r
11:08 Wadi Musa, Movenpick Hotel, Musakhan for dinner - After our incredible lunch at Dana Village, we continued driving. Along the way to Petra, we stopped at Wadi Musa, which is said to be the place where Moses struck the rock and water came out. There was a rock there, and extremely clear water was flowing out. We drove to Movenpick Hotel at Petra, and we checked in. For dinner, we ate at the Movenpick buffet restaurant, and they had a good selection of both Western and Jordanian food. The dish I was most interested in eating was the musakhan, a Jordanian and Palestinian food of bread, chicken and spices, all cooked in lots of olive oil. It was my first time to try it, and I enjoyed it - and I can only imagine how much better it would be home-cooked.
14:58 Petra By Night - Petra is the most famous attraction in all of Jordan - some people will visit Jordan with a specific purpose to visit the historical city. One company decided to set up candles in paper bags and open Petra by Night, so you can visit the main Treasury at night. Ying and I took the walk, and it was pretty cool, but it was still so dark, that honestly I couldn’t really see anything, and my camera couldn’t really pick up anything as well. So stay tuned for tomorrow’s video where we visited Petra for the entire day!

COOKING TRADITIONAL JORDANIAN FOOD + PETRA BY NIGHT (is it worth it?) // JORDAN TRAVEL VLOG
We had no idea what we were getting ourselves into tonight with a Jordanian cooking class! A good friend in Petra set this up for us and we weren't sure if we were going to be doing the cooking ourselves or if we were going to be watching others' cook. Turns out we had a whole lot of cooking ahead of us! The main dish was a Jordanian specialty called maqluba which is an incredible 1-pot dish where the ingredients are layered and cooked on the stove. Maqluba translates to upside down because the dish is literally flipped upside-down before serving. Mico was the lucky candidate for trying the flip and… well… he was a little embarrassed by how it went!
After our cooking class we went to Petra By Night, which is exactly what it sounds like - visiting the lost city of Petra at night time! The local Bedouin people set up candles along the 1.5km walk through the Siq to the Treasury and nothing but the candles and the moon light your way to the iconic spot of this World Wonder. It is a gorgeous sight and completely different from visiting Petra during the daytime. Tickets for Petra By Night are sold separately from tickets to visit Petra during the day, and as of November 2021 tickets cost 17 JOD/person (about $31 CAD or $25USD). Is it worth it? Watch to the end to hear our thoughts!
