All addresses
Cairo · Sayeda Zeinab and Hussein
El Dahan
A century-old kebab house, steps from the al-Hussein mosque.
€€ Mid-range
Kebab and kofta grilled over charcoal, served with bread, tahini and salads, in a plain room where tables turn fast. The old city's address when you want meat and nothing else.
The extra bit
Order by weight, like the regulars: half a kilo of mixed grill for two, with bread.
Know before you go
Combines with Khan el-Khalili: a few minutes' walk from the souk.
