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

Featured image Ayadina Lebanese Restaurant

Personally speaking, we’ve been craving Lebanese since Ramadan started; maybe it’s the daily sight of Sambousak on our Iftar table that triggered the need for more of that deliciously unique cuisine, and its long list of scrumptious appetisers. Many Lebanese restaurants in Cairo have special Iftar and Sohour menu on offer for delivery, which will satisfy our palate only once.

Call us greedy, but we want the culinary pleasure to last as long as we can, so we’ve searched for the places that offer their goodness in a frozen form, so we can take it out of the freezer and pop it into the pan, oven, or microwave, whenever the whim urges.

 

Ayadina:

Gourmet:                                                                                                                        Of course, Gourmet is not a restaurant, so let’s consider it a bonus place you can turn to for a quick fix. The grocery shop has a long list of Lebanese delights that cater to all tastes; from mana’eesh and fatayer to Kebbeh that comes with its own yoghurt dip, and even Fatoush Salad.
