The Definitive Guide to Living in the Capital , Cairo , Egypt

There’s a very delicate equation that one must get right to achieve the perfect Ramadan sohour experience. While many pride themselves on being an ultimate shisha haven, or boast about their sprawling buffets, there are few places that offer the whole package like Concorde El Salam Hotel is this Ramadan.

Taking place at outdoor restaurant, La Veranda, the hotel is going all out, offering the ideal Ramadan night.

First of all, you have the restaurant itself, which sits around the hotel’s pool and a sprawl of greenery. That in itself is a perfect base for what’s to come – and what’s to come is a kaleidoscope of fun that takes all the best Ramadan traditions and adds Concorde’s touch to them.

On the food front, live cooking stations will serve up the heartiest Oriental grills, while Egyptian cuisine stalwarts like foul, taameya and other bits and bobs will be on offer, alongside traditional Ramadan drinks.

Once you’ve feasted like a sultan, shisha will be calling with La Veranda set to offer an eclectic range of flavours. The cherry on top of all of this, however, will be Thursday night entertainment, with everything from Oriental takhts, to live music set to add a hustle and a bustle to proceedings.

What about the mosalsalaat?, we hear you say?  You didn’t think we’d forgot, did you? Yes, La Veranda will have a giant TV screening all the top Ramadan shows.

And so there you have it – the whole package. For more information and reservations on Ramadan at La Veranda, call 02-2293-1156 – 012-0000-2392.
