The Sudan Food Festival was sponsored by DAL Food, a major food distributor in Khartoum. Food, culture, dance, music, and costumes from all over Sudan were represented. There are 100’s of tribes in Sudan. I was fortunate to make a good friend in Dafa Alla Elhag, who studies the history and music of these tribes and directs a traditional music ensemble that performs all around the world. He was a wealth of knowledge about Sudanese music and traditions.
A decorated and very loved man!
The wife “decorates” the husband with everything from pom poms to plastic leis, the more he is decorated, the more he is “loved”.
There was what I would call a “flea market” at the festival…check out WHAM! Traditional spices Dafa alla’s Group performs traditional dance Sudanese Camarata dancers
