"With two well-placed branches, Zeeyara offers travelers the opportunity to dine in highly prized settings. One has a great view of the Giza Pyramids, but check out the one on the must-visit Moezz Street, where the hustle and bustle of historic Cairo come to life. The thoughtful menu features rich flavors that cater to every palate. For meat lovers, the Auzy Zeeyara, a platter of tender lamb meat served with spiced rice and nuts, is a great choice, though the garlicky borghol camel meatballs with butter sauce are also worth a shot. Vegetarians should opt for the herby bessara, a fava bean paste starring coriander and topped with fried onions, perfect for dipping with baladi bread. The rocca salad features local arugula, tomatoes, basterma (cured beef), woven Syrian cheese, and onions with a sweet and tangy pomegranate molasses vinaigrette, though the kitchen can make it vegetarian as well. For dessert, don’t miss out on the date tart with pistachio, ideally paired with some mint tea. Reservations are recommended and can easily be made through Le Riad Hotel de Charme’s website or with a quick phone call." - Laila Hassaballa
