if you see the tourists how much they eat in Egypt you will know why they develop diarrhea,we all travel and see how they eat in their countries and how much they eat and drink in their holidays.
you have to select and control what you eat anywhere in the world.
no comment about Xabi mail his opinion about the pyramids is unique against the history so dose not deserve any comments as 7ussain mentioned Egypt will be more happy if you do not go if you can see and like the postal card enjoy and cheeers

I agree. Trying authentic gourmet food is a fair way of experiencing a country’s food and to give it an honest review.

You just didn’t go to the right places man. In Egypt, we live for food.
There’s Burger Joint which packs a mighty and tasty burger in soft square bread, choose your toppings. There’s Dido’s pasta which if you go to the small original Zamalek restaurant which only has like 6 tables, will serve you delicious, steamy hot carbonara or alfredo. There’s the Egyptian home food which is what you should have tried. I still can’t believe you came to Egypt and went straight for the burgers. WTF

We have molokheya (leafy vegetable stew and my fave dish in the world), have that with some white rice with sha3reya (thin noodles mixed in) and half a grilled chicken and your set.

There’s Bamia (okra stew) with mince meat and potatoes, lentil soup with onions and so much more…. Then there are the sweets. Konafa with mango’s or cream, Basbousa, Solimaneya… God the list is endless.. And you, go for McDonalds….

Honestly man, if you ever plan to visit again, give me a shout.

I stopped reading this post after the following line “Good Food: Egypt”

please don’t ever mention those two terms in one sentence, simply becuase there is no such thing as good food in Egypt.. they are contradictory.

If by good food you mean food that will not give you diarrhea within 3 hours of consuming it, then i guess you’re right, i can name one or two places. Everything else passes through your system and is out the other side before the taste even leaves your mouth.

oh yeah.. and the pyramids are waaaaaay overrated. much cooler on a postcard.

cheers!
