Cairo · Garden City

Taboula

Levantine mezze in a vaulted cellar, close to the Corniche.

€€ Mid-range

A Lebanese address in a Garden City basement: hummus, moutabal, kibbeh, grills, and a long list of vegetarian mezze. Service is careful and the place quiet enough to talk, which is rare in this district.

The extra bit

Build a whole meal of hot and cold mezze, with no main course: the best way to eat here.

Know before you go

The entrance is discreet, below street level: look for the small sign rather than a façade.
