An experience worthy of your money at Viking Egypt

CAIRO – 4 August, 2017: If you want to experience 8th century Europe with a modern twist right here at home while indulging in tasty international cuisine, Viking International restaurant is the place to be.

Viking opened 5 years ago with their first branch in Heliopolis. Now they have 3 branches across Cairo with their newest branch being located in Mall of Egypt and that’s where our food journey begins.

Viking’s opening hours are from 9 am until 1 am of the next day. So if you are wondering if they serve breakfast? They do. They have a wide range of international breakfast dishes that will blow away your taste buds.

Let talk about lunch. I can't explain the flavorful journey that I had while having lunch there. However all I could say is that it was an amazing journey and I didn’t wat it to end.

Service was on point, everything came on time and they never mixed up an order.

If you want to start with soup I recommend you try Coconut Carrot Soup which tastes like heaven on earth. If you are into an adventure then the Coconut Carrot Soup is the soup that you should seek. However, if you are into more simple and traditional soups you should pick the tomato soup.

If you are wondering if I ordered two soups, I actually did it, and it felt amazing.

Anyway moving on for starters, I ordered two of the best starters at Viking which were; Chicken Quesadilla, and Viking Sampler. The Chicken Quesadilla are freshly made premium tortilla with the perfect mix of melted cheese, jalapenos and marinated chicken filling served with pico de gallo and sour cream. This mix took me straight to Mexico to where it all began, in a dreamy world full of cheese and cream.

When it comes to the Viking Sampler it contains four favorite starter dishs. Crispy chicken strips, fried mozzarella sticks, fried mashed potato and golden fried calamari served with four different dipping sauces. My favorite had to be the fried mashed potato because it melts as soon as I put my fork through it.

The starters were astonishing; however, I was still hungry and thirsty. Hence I ordered the storming Viking cocktail with the main course which was Montreal Steak.

A combination of ginger, lemon, passion fruit, with coke made the The storming Viking. Every sip was a pleasant zestful experience.


The main course took me abroad a boat full of cheese and steak until now I cannot get it out of my head and how the taste was strong and magnificent. The Montreal Steak was char grilled to medium perfection the steak fillet was paired with the special house sausages topped with waves of secret cheese sauce, with a side of mash French fries and sautéed veggies.

Was the main course the end of my launch?

Of course not, I had to try at least one dessert Of course I went for the Oreo cake jar. I was love at first bite I felt like I was running through Charlie’s Chocolate Factory . It was so good that in no time I was at the bottom of the jar.

All in all, I had a great day in Viking and I recommend you go ahead and try them out.
