2. Travel Tip:
Noisy and unpleasant

This was another one of those touristy places that was all hyped up and then failed to deliver. I couldn't believe how cheesy and geared toward foreigners it was - so much so that it was easy to... Tags for this Travel Tip: food restaurants cairo egypt cafe coffee |

8. Travel Tip:
Good food, no drinks
|
This is not the place to go if you're just looking for a snack - the portions are huge and the food is really delicious. Allegedly it's Italian food, but we found the cuisine to be more along the... Tags for this Travel Tip: food restaurants cairo egypt |

10. Travel Tip:
Fast food with a difference
|
Cairo seems to have a tradition of excellent fast food, and Cook Door is no exception. The sandwiches are excellent, especially the strangely-named "Viagra Sandwich," which is crab meat, shrimp,... Tags for this Travel Tip: food restaurants cairo egypt |
