On September 25th, the world celebrates National Quesadilla Day, an excellent excuse to indulge in this enticing dish! We think this Mexican delicacy deserves more appreciation in Cairo. Egyptians should have a greater recognition of these soft tortillas stuffed with cheese and other delicious, spiced chicken, beef, or veggies. It’s time to celebrate this special day with a quesadilla fiesta!
