Restaurants in Egypt
Egypt is full of many famous restaurants throughout major cities like Cairo and Alexandria Aswan and even in smaller towns. There are a splendid amount of choices in big cities and more limited choices in smaller towns, but you will always be pleasantly surprised at the selection and quality you can find. Most famous restaurants here offer international cuisine along with traditional Egyptian food which is definitely worth giving a try when in this amazing country. Also, in addition to the regular culinary fares, many popular hotel chains in Egypt make arrangements for famous chefs to fly here for week log extravaganzas and food festivals which can offer a heavenly experience for food lovers.
In the past few years the prices on Egyptian menus have seen a steep rise in some famous Egyptian restaurants making the pricing similar in some cases to high class restaurants in places like London and New York. However, there are many simple restaurants where prices are still affordable and the food is delicious. Meanwhile, cheaper restaurants in Egypt do not serve alcohol but expensive imported wines can be enjoyed at more expensive establishments.
