Abou El Sid

Last night I went for dinner to Abou El Sid. It's a restaurant who serves Egyptian food like if it was at home. No 5-star chef there, women are in charge in the kitchen, cooking for you as if you were visiting their home.
The place is really nice. Decoration is worth seeing and the food is simply excellent. All the traditional Egyptian dishes are there.
To the surprise of the waiter, I ordered a large selection of dishes, simply to have a try at as many of them. And I had a very good dinner followed by a nice walk on the riverside.

PS: this restaurant is mostly frequented by tourists. Obviously Egyptian stay home for "home type cooking".
