Arabica Sarah

Arabica Cafe
Arabica is my Fav. hang out, the sort of food they offer (FETEEER) is rarely found with such quality, and the music is great as well, they play Budda bar, jazz, reggy, and some times Mohammed Mounir and Fairouz, and guess what you can paint there as the tables are not covered with normal sheets but rather drawing sheets, and you can order water colors! you gotta check it out?!
Arabica Cafe is in Zamalek street, Cairo
At the corner of Ahmed Hishmat street beside Saudi super market

    Hi Sarah, I read some of your reviews and they are really awesome!

    You seem such an expert on the Cairo nightlife though you are living in Beirut, wish you can help. I'm looking for a hotel in Cairo that is preferably walking distance to some good clubs. As I'm travelling to Cairo alone in Nov (and yep, I'm a female), I don't like the idea of taking a cab back to hotel late at night after clubbing.

    Is there any hotel you would recommend that is in the midst of 1 of 2 good clubs/pubs? I was thinking of Ramsis Hilton, Marriott (at Zamalek) or Intercontinetal Semiramis - not sure if you are familiar with these. Thought some of those clubs like After8, El Morrocco, Sangria that you have reviewed on seem very interesting. Care to share your thoughts?

    Oh,... and do let me know if it's really crazy for me to think that I can just walk into some club late at night on my own.... :)
