Halal food in Khartoum

Khartoum is Sudan's capital and halal food is naturally abundant across the city, as the country is overwhelmingly Muslim. Most street food, cafes, and restaurants are halal by default, with Sudanese cuisine dominating. Finding non-halal options is the challenge here, not halal ones.
