Cairo · New Cairo / Tagamoa

The tables of Tagamoa

Cairo's contemporary dining, concentrated in the city's east.

€€€ High end

New Cairo drew the wave of concept restaurants: brunches, fusion kitchens, food halls, terraces. Prices are the city's highest and the crowd young; the exact opposite of the historic centre, forty minutes away.

The extra bit

Book at weekends: Tagamoa tables go several days ahead.

Know before you go

Without a car, plan on a ride-hail: the district is not built for walking.
