Eish + Malh

Cairo


This high-ceilinged cafe, with its original arched windows framed by floor-to-ceiling city scenes, is a favoured hang-out for hip, young Cairenes. The menu has an Italian bent with decent pizza, plenty of pasta options and really good ice cream, while in a major bonus to caffeine-fans, it also makes the best flat white (along with other espresso-based coffees) in Downtown.

The breakfast menu offers pancakes and French toast, well-worth skipping a bland hotel breakfast for.
