    Coffee In the morning plays a significant part in my Life ,hah not only me , but all Saudis love the Arabic coffee and have special way of preparing it and special way of pouring it for guests .

    You know u have to hold the Dalla ( the name of the jug of coffee) in your left hand to pour the coffee and present it for the guest by your Right hand , this way will show how you respect your guest and are happy by his coming ,I really was afraid of doing the opposite but I got used to it and love to pour Coffee for guests .aha, the one who pours coffee should watch the guest wether his cup got over to pour him once again coz the cups are small too. Mostly these rules are never discussed coz people already do them perfectly and learn them indirectly since childhood .

    You will be surprised if I told u generally our coffee is Bitter without sugar Never
    Simply coz we have sweets and desserts along with a cup of coffe so there is no need for double sugar , and even drinking it alone is something part of my daily joy though children can't stand it coz of it's bitter tast.

    how to prepare it , boiling water is poured inside a jug that has 3 or 4 spoons of coffee pouder and 1 spoon of cardamom then let them for about 5 minutes to boil and Woow the wole house will know that you're making coffee , It's smell will turn u like someone who has lost something as you're running to look for the source of the smell , hahah believe me coz this coffee will gather all the family members around it ^_^ It's a symbol of love and warmness especially during vacation nights when we still up late at night with a smell of tasty coffee and night breeze , wooow they're memorable moments can't be forgotten and will stuck in your mind along with a Coffee smell .

    Though there are some hot drinks as Cappuccino, Mocha and the other kinds of Coffee , still the Original Arabic Coffee has it's holy place in our community



    People differ in doing that but it's all about the culture in which you're living
    I think I talked too much
    thanks for the topic , you made me feel like i want a cup right now ^_^
