Bon Apetite: Everyday Italian!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Restaurant Name: Bon Apetite

    After days in Egypt my family kinda, well...got sick of the food, so we opted to try out the restaurant at the American University, which was atleast a 10-15minute walk from our hotel, was it worth the walk? You Bet!

    The restaurant was in style! It looked like we were not even in Egypt! The menu made me hungry and the prices were not to complain! 9L.E for a pasta Penne which was really filling! My brother had a Lasagna which was 15L.E and boy, was it delisious!

    If you want good food and a price which is acceptable to your budget, you should definitely land here, I swear, you will savor every bite!

    Favorite Dish: Among the dishes they served, my favorite was the Pasta Penne. I really savored every bite, and to make it better simply add a dash of lemon, a little bit of pepper and sprinkle some salt on it and mix it.

    When you put it in your mouth you will taste your wonderful mixture together with the recipe put on it. Not only that but the portions are big, so I'm sure this will satisfy your cranky stomach!

    Baskin Robins: Baskin Robins In Egypt!!!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Restaurant Name: Baskin Robins

    When I was going around the Arcadia Mall in Cairo, I notice a very familiar sign that of
    "Baskin Robins". I jump for joy! I never expected a Baskin Robins in Cairo.

    The Baskin Robins in Egypt has the same flavors you'll see in western countries. But I did notice that the price of the double scoop(which is 14L.E.)was much higher in Egypt.
    The taste of the Ice cream ain't the same as in the western world, but yet its still good!

    So if your willing to spurge for one good afternoon treat, simply go to the arcadia mall and
    satisfy your self with a good Baskin Robins Ice cream.

    Favorite Dish: The best dish in this Ice cream parlo is the double scoop(Any selection among 18 flavors)fudge, and to top it off with a nife bake waffle!

    This was sooo good! The hot waffle plus the chocolate fudge with your choice of ice cream will simply melt in your mouth! This will make your day much more enjoyable and satisfying!

    The only problem is that this dish maybe kinda costly.(It cost 18L.E!)But I guess you could
    spurge just for one time!

    Anywhere around Egypt! (No specific restaurant!): Don't miss SHARWARMA!!!

  • Egypt - Shawarma, I'm dreaming of you!
  • Shawarma, I'm dreaming of you!

  • Restaurant Name: Anywhere around Egypt! (No specific restaurant!)

    The first thing that I really wanted to try when going to Egypt was the Shawarma, for I heard that the Shawarma in Egypt is sooo juicy, and delicious and the best part, its CHEAP! (1-2$'s)

    Whenever I eat a Shawarma, I savor every bite! Its really nice to eat it in a place you can sit down, with a cozy atmosphere and a cup of coffee to go with it, and in Egypt, a place like this is not hard to find! When eating the Shawarma, don't forget to add the white sauce on it, it really blends with the flavor of the Shawarma!

    So remember, when you visit Egypt, let yourself try a tender juicy Shawarma!

    Favorite Dish: The Shawarma! Its a really great snack in the afternoon with a cup of coffee to go with it!
    Oh, and to make your Shawarma much tastier, you can add sprinkle some pepper and salt, and maybe ask for a tomato to go with it in your sandwich, and when you eat it like this, believe me, you will LOVE IT!!
