Felfela

Compared with domestic restaurants, I personally think that it is not a gourmet restaurant. The environment is also average, and the hardware facilities are equivalent to domestic food stalls. Most of the waiters can speak English, and most of the customers are white Europeans and Americans. There is a sign on the table, reminding you to pay a tip when you pay the bill.

[Exploring Egypt | Cairo | What do you think of this retro old store that tourists are eager to check in? 】 🤔Recommended by all major apps, a retro old shop located in the downtown of Cairo, a tourist restaurant for foreigners~ (mostly Europeans and Chinese) 🌱🌱🌱 Saving data version 🌱🌱🌱 ☑️The environment is unique, the food is exquisite, Tamiya is really good, you can drink wine and beer~ ❌The disadvantage is that it is expensive (compared to local prices, it is still cheaper than Chengdu), there is no wifi, it is a bit stuffy without air conditioning, the layout and light are a bit depressing, and the dining plate is full of greasy fingerprints (Figure 9)~ 🏠 Felfela, 🌻🌻🌻 (🌻 Trash; 🌻🌻 Not recommended; 🌻🌻🌻 You can try it according to your preferences; 🌻🌻🌻🌻 Recommended; 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻 (can make a special trip) 💫 (only based on the dining situation at the time, so for reference) ​ 🌱🌱🌱 Take a look at the board 🌱🌱🌱 🏡Environment: Open the inconspicuous and simple door, the left wall is full of awards and deeds reports about this store~ ​ ​🌲In the store, trees are used as pillars, and grape vines are interspersed on the top. The sun shines through the top colored glass into the restaurant. The clear calls of birds come from the dining table. The wooden and simple decorations have some Egyptian elements and mysterious style. In terms of the environment, it feels like it hits the tourists' points everywhere, but the compact layout seems a bit depressing~ ​ ​🌟Highlights: What makes European and American tourists even more addicted is that you can drink here. There are traditional Egyptian beers, as well as red, peach, and white Wine~ ✨Look, the couple at the next table have red wine on the table, shaking the wine glass in their hands, enjoying a pleasant time~ ​ 💫 It feels like except for the ice caramel coffee I ordered, the foreign guests at other tables all have a bottle of Egyptian beer~ ⭐Tips: (Egypt claims to be the birthplace of beer. At that time, the ancient Egyptians who had not yet been invaded by the Arabs accidentally invented it in a pottery jar. After the Arabs came, alcohol was banned)⭐ ​ 🤔​Price: Since the main customers are European and American tourists, the waiters are dressed very much like European and American restaurants. The price is 4-6 times that of ordinary restaurants, and 2-3 times that of local non-tourist famous restaurants~ ❌This can barely be considered a high-end restaurant. The plates are full of greasy fingerprints. What's going on😂~(Picture 9) ​ ​✔️However, the money paid is different, and the taste and flavor are also different. Just talking about this Tamiya Stuffed Meat is indeed the best I have eaten in Cairo so far~ ☑️Tamiya Stuffed Meat: It is not salty, the shell is crispy, the inside is soft and moist, and there is a sense of air when chewing. The flavor and aroma are very good. There is also a slight aroma of radish from time to time. Except for the oiliness, it seems to be fine~ ​ ​❌Shrimp Rice: Simple shrimp fried with a little salt for seasoning. The rice is the classic half-cooked rice for foreigners. Foreigners like it very much, but most Chinese still like it not half-cooked, so I don’t recommend it~ ​ ⭕​Iced Caramel Coffee: The caramel flavor is strong, but it is sweet, very sweet, super sweet~ ‼ ️I originally thought that I would go there in the afternoon to have a cup of coffee and relax for the whole afternoon, but the air conditioner above my head was not turned on, and there was no WIFI. It was a bit stuffy sitting there. The compact layout and the afternoon light made it a bit depressing, so I just ate something and left~ #Minmin Sword Fairy Travels #Egypt Travel #Flower Taste #Minmin Sword Fairy Egypt Guide

I searched on tripadvisor and found Felfela, which opened in 1959. It is said to be the taste of Cairo people's childhood. Now this restaurant has two branches. It is relatively small and bourgeois near the Egyptian Museum. The one I went to is Felfela Express, which is a simple restaurant. It is clean, bright and spacious. Looking around, it is indeed full of local diners. There is a chef grilling shawerma at the door. It feels super authentic👍 🍴Dishes The soul of Middle Eastern cuisine is falafel. When I was taking language classes in New York, I had a Lebanese classmate. I finally got to eat the falafel she described for a long time [sad face] Made with chickpeas or broad beans mixed with light spices. The skin is crispy and the inside is tender and delicious😋 Other recommendations include beef burritos and chicken rice. Rice pudding is a must for dessert —————🅸🅽🅵🅾———— 🍴Felfela Express 📍15 Hoda Shaarawy, Bab Al Louq, Qasr El Nil, Cairo Governorate, Egypt ☎️ 022 3955557 💰20 Egyptian pounds per person Others: There is a local juice shop next to it. It is recommended to drink mango juice and strawberry juice when you come to Egypt. It is so sweet that you doubt your life [Looking forward to it]

Egyptian food secrets revealed, can Africa still eat like this? Super cost-effective! 💃 Looking at the world, food is the hidden code that transcends culture. If Chinese food embodies moderation and inclusion; French food is fascinated by romance and refinement; then African food is a symbol of their simplicity and enthusiasm. 🍃 About the environment: When you first come to Egypt, you will inevitably frown. Why are there such underground restaurants in the streets and alleys? When you get closer, you will find that they have deeply grasped the essence of Japanese one-person dining. One person takes the food at one table and orders it by himself. Although the corners are old, they are not dilapidated. 🥘 About food: As a senior foodie, you must have three full meals when you come to North Africa. How to say it, the local food has a high rate of thunder. Some look delicious, but they are actually bland; some are ugly and messy, but the taste is great. 🌟 1. Koshari. It looks average, but there are surprises when you eat it. Rice, macaroni, onions, and black lentils create a soft and thick texture. The beef cubes, vinegar and garlic chili sauce, and baked rice balls are solid. One plate is enough, and you will get sick of it easily. 🌟 2. Chicken mallow soup. The color is green with a brown tint. A small sip has the charm of West Lake water shield soup. Cooked with chicken legs, lamb, butter, garlic, etc., it is thick and sticky, and it is still delicious. 🌟 3. Rice pudding. A well-known local dessert, children like to eat it with baked potatoes. The upper layer is a milk pastry like cheese jelly, and the lower layer is a grain of rice. A bowl of ice cold, it melts in your mouth. 👉 About language: Although Egyptians mainly speak Arabic, they can naturally handle simple oral communication. If your English is not good enough, you can try various "mobile translators" (APPs) to convert Chinese directly in real time. 📍 About the address: It is located in downtown Cairo and there are many chain stores. It is recommended to take a taxi. It is inconvenient to drive there. It is easy to get lost in the streets when walking. You can go with locals.

I took an Uber to this highly rated restaurant. There were mostly Europeans and Americans inside, only one Asian. The waiters were all older and could speak English. I ordered a roasted pigeon and vegetable soup. To be honest, the pigeon was not as good as the Cantonese ones, so I just ate it.
