Slow-cooked lamb shank over roasted vegetables

Egyptian kitchen · Zamalek

Home cooking,
with today's touch.

Egyptian dishes from a wood-fired oven, on a rooftop over the Nile.

We cook the way our mothers did, and serve it the way it deserves.

Everything starts in the wood-fired oven: the bread, the fatta, the stuffed pigeon. Produce from Cairo's markets every morning, tables above the Nile every night.
