et Guide: Places to eat out at this Eid

CAIRO – 01 September 2017: Eid el Adha celebrates the willingness of Abraham to sacrifice his son Ismail. Hence, every Eid el Adha Muslims from all around the world celebrate this cause (Abraham and Ismail) by sacrificing a sheep to God; plus family members exchange gifts with one another.

Hence, there will always be a 3ezouma (dinner party, but really more like a feast) at your families’ or friends’ house. So what happens when you get tired of all the traditional Eid food and just want to do something different since you aren’t vacationing with your friends and you are stranded in Cairo?

Here is an Egypt Today approved list of restaurants to go and dine in this Eid.

1. Mexican chef Diego Casillas, Maria’s, Fairmont Heliopolis & Towers

“Fajitas simply always let my appetite run wild, there is something about the mixture of flavors that get my taste buds going as they remind me of the warmth and authenticity back home,” said Casillas.

2. An experience worthy of your money at Viking Egypt

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 go.

3. Asian Fusion Extravaganza at the Marriott

Cairo Marriott’s very own little piece of Asia, Torii, now serves a whole new menu of delicious Asian fusion dishes and of course, long live Teppanyaki.

4. Italian Chef Giovanni Romagnoli, Pane Vino Restaurant & Terrace, Semiramis InterContinental Cairo

“One of my favorite dishes is definitely the mushroom risotto, and it’s also the guests’ favorite! It can be modified according to dietary habits, is gluten free and is loved by everyone.”

5. Mo Bistro takes over Sahel and Mohandeseen

After spending a long day at the beach or in the city, you need to head out to Mo Bistro to try a fine dining experience by the sea or in the heart of Mohandeseen.

6. Crust Pizza: The everyday gourmet pizza place

We can safely and honestly say that I have come to the holy grail of pizza places in Cairo: Crust Pizza. Perfectly baked, the authentic pizza made with fresh ingredients is delivered to your home fresh, hot and simply delicious. It was also a nice surprise to see that the premium pizza and fresh ingredients are not overpriced.
