LE CHANTILLY

Swiss restaurant €€

A place of the Heliopolis bourgeoisie that offers, among other things, Swiss specialities, to be enjoyed indoors or on the pretty terrace. Everything is fresh and of high quality. The atmosphere here is old-fashioned, with antique furniture and decoration from the 1950s. Don't hesitate to try their excellent pastries, among the best in Cairo. You can also buy them to take away. The service is discreet and very professional. Beers and alcohol are served. Excellent value for money. In short, a beautiful address in the heart of Heliopolis.

NILE MAXIM

Restaurant cuisine dEurope €€€

A very elegant boat for dinner on a two-hour cruise on the Nile. The food is of good quality and the entertainment includes musicians, whirling dervishes and a belly dancer. With her voluptuous swaying, she pays homage to the traditional dances of Upper Egypt, while offering a varied overview of the compulsory figures of what Westerners have renamed "belly dancing". Highly recommended, this luxury cruise is very popular: reservations are essential.

LA CHESA

Fusion restaurant and international cuisine €€€

With its funny front and quirky interior, this is one of the few places in Cairo where you can eat a Savoyard fondue. The prices are certainly quite high, but the quality is there. You can also come here for breakfast, which is very hearty and delights the taste buds. The atmosphere is hushed inside, and you can appreciate the soft and discreet music. The place also has the advantage of being very well located in downtown Cairo, while being sheltered from the hustle and bustle. It would however deserve a small renovation. Friendly staff.
