Arabic coffee

Arabic coffee (Arabic: قهوة عربية‎) is a general name that refers to the way coffee is prepared in many Arab countries throughout the Middle East.
It has a special coffee pot called dallah (Arabic: دلة‎) and the coffee cups are small but with no handle. The portions are very small, covering the bottom of the cup. It is served in houses and in good restaurants by specially clad waiters called gahwaji, and it is almost always accompanied with dates. It is always offered with the compliments of the house and is free. It is also offered at most social events like weddings and funerals.
