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

There’s nothing that says summer in the city quite like that ingenious little concept called a barbeque. There’s something about getting a sizzling piece of chicken or a big juicy burger hot off the grill – something that the Ramses Hilton understand all too well.

So well do they understand this very specific culinary joy, in fact, that every Thursday and Friday, the Downtown hotel is inviting one and all for weekly all-day barbeques of the highest order.

Taking place at one of the hotel’s newest venues, BREEZES Lounge & Grill, between 4PM and 11PM, it’s all set up for a perfect summer’s day.

For 280LE++ per person, you will be showered with all manner of BBQ food, as well as well hot and cold mezzahs and even Oriental desserts – that’s if you have enough space after meat-feasting – all of which are served to you at your table with minimum fuss.

With a stunning Nile view, live entertainment and range of fruity shishas also at your disposal, it almost makes one want to ditch that Sahel weekend you’ve been planning. It’s ok – we don’t judge.

BREEZES Lounge & Grill opened at the end of 2016 and has since become a favourite among guests and visitors at a hotel that also has plenty of fans thanks to the brilliant, Cairo 360 Editors’ Choice Award-winning Indian restaurant, Maharaja – so you can count on the food at the BBQ being great.
