Beside the First Nile boat lies the dynamic outdoor Italian-style pizzeria, Riva, offering a selection of authentic Italian dishes. “Cicchetti Nights by the Nile” at Riva will be held every Thursday and Friday from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. These nights include live music in the background to transport you to the streets of Italy.

Cicchetti is a variety of Italian antipasti which are widely celebrated in the magical city of Venice. Riva recreates a cosy outdoor Venetian vibe during the gorgeous autumn weather, accompanied by live acoustic music, hand-made Italian bites, drinks, and personalised service.

During Cicchetti nights, guests can choose from an à la carte menu with many Cicchetti items, referring to snacks or bites, served the Venetian way. The à la carte menu includes charred octopus, calzone, truffle arancini, bruschetta, calamari, and goat’s cheese or mushroom ricotta crostini.

To compliment your meal, indulging in a selection of Cicchetti items and a glass of Egyptian wine will only cost you EGP 600+, perfect for sharing for two guests.
