Asian cuisine restaurants Cairo

It was on the basis of Chinese luck that the Four Seasons chose to name its restaurant of Cantonese specialities. With a modern and elegant decoration, impeccable service and dim sums sums concocted by a chef straight from Shanghai. True connoisseurs of Chinese cuisine may be a little disappointed because the dishes are good but not all of them are excellent. In the Egyptian capital, the 8 remains nevertheless the best address for Chinese cuisine, with the added bonus of a majestic view of the longest river in Africa.

A beautiful address in the moonlight on this boat moored on the banks of the Nile. The bluish decoration of the halogen lamps camouflages to the guests the lights of the city that surrounds them. With the swaying tunes of the house DJ, the meals are very pleasant with a menu that offers many Japanese specialties and especially raw fish. The service is attentive but if you are not known to the staff, they will tend to place you anywhere. Do not hesitate to protest and ask for the free table you like.

If you feel like an overdose of tahini and keftas, no hesitation: this high-flying table serves excellent Japanese creations. It is certainly the best Japanese restaurant in town, everything is fresh and made according to the rules of the art: sushi, maki, yakitoris, gyosas? The chef signs specialities of curries and rolls absolutely amazing. So as not to spoil anything during the meal: the room arranged around an aquarium is very pleasant and the service adorable.

This Indian restaurant, right in the center of Mohandessin, belongs to the Oberoi group: the setting is chic, the food just right, and the prices very reasonable. What's more, the staff are very friendly: here, the waiters do everything to make you feel at ease. As for the food, there are no surprises: a variety of Indian specialties, from chicken byriani to samoussas and vegetarian dishes. The restaurant can be booked for private parties. Reservations can also be made for takeaway.

Excellent Thai address with many years of reputation. The restaurant is located in the luxurious Sémiramis Hotel, just a few meters from Tahrir Square and the National Museum. Its geographical position makes it a strategic place to take a lunch break before leaving the downtown area and its thousand and one secrets. To digest, walking in the Manial district may be an option. To do this you will only have to go along the cornice and ask one of the falouka navigators to take you across the Nile to the foot of the Manial Palace.

Sabai Sabai is one of Cairo's top Thai restaurants. It offers specialties from all regions of the country. The Asian-inspired interior and decor make the small room a charming and intimate setting for gourmets who come here to feast. Pad Thaï, of course, but also Khod Pud Ka-Prow Kai, tom Jeod Woonsen soup, chicken basil and eggplant, crispy chicken ravioli Tung Tong, or Pla Kapong Neung Ma Now, a lemongrass-infused steamed white fish with spicy sauce, the signature dish! Enjoy your meal!

Don't hesitate to push open the door of this little black storefront, not always easy to find. You'll be transported straight to Korea. With dishes to share and a grill placed directly on the table, this is a place where Korean food is the mainstay, although the restaurant also offers a number of Chinese and Japanese dishes, such as stir-fried rice and fried noodles, which are popular with regulars. On the Korean side, let yourself be tempted by the spicy octopus or spicy beef noodles, a real treat! A good address that we recommend.

Peking in Doqqi is one of Cairo's top Chinese restaurants. Mr Shawki and his team go out of their way to satisfy customers, offering a menu that comes close to the quality of Chinese cuisine. Fish dishes, beef barbecues, vegetable noodle stir-fries, mushroom and ginger dishes... There's something for everyone. We also like the beef with oyster sauce, a real treat! In short, a good address for travelers looking for a change of scene from Egyptian flavors...

Good Thai address in Heliopolis.

It's a very high-end Indian restaurant. You can also enjoy his menu by the pool, for a chic or romantic dinner. The passing tourist is welcomed as a regular visitor who is pampered with complicity. The waiters take special care with the undecided and those who fear spices to help them choose from a very wide range of tastes and a range of more or less spicy dishes. Butter chicken is a must. We won't forget the view of the pyramids and that feeling of being in a movie!

With a brand name such as this, it is superfluous to detail the menu…

Lan Yuan serves authentic Chinese cuisine and certainly the best Chinese noodles in Cairo! Don't be fooled by its pub-like appearance, this place doesn't serve fish and chips, but rather crispy duck when it's not lacquered, shrimp ravioli, spicy chicken chop-suey, beef in oyster sauce and, of course, Chinese noodles in a thousand variations. Buffet formulas are available at weekends, and the atmosphere is quite festive in the evenings. The restaurant offers a variety of beers and a good wine list.

The most popular Japanese address in Cairo, and therefore most appreciated in Mirage City.
