Dig into contemporary versions of traditional wholesome Egyptian home cooking. Order from the counter – brown-rice kushari, molokhiyya (garlicky leaf soup, speciality of Egypt) or a typical Egyptian stew. The salad bar here provides one of the tastiest vegetarian meals in town. Grab a four-salad mix and pair it with a side of spicy potatoes.
The decor is colourful, prices are good and the place is popular with Cairenes. Despite the address, the entrance is one block down Sharia Aziz Osman.
