Get a Taste of Lebanon in Cairo at Beirut Lounge

Whilst it seems as though the Lebanese dining industry is erupting out of every pore in our bodies, the reality is far from it. Hunting down an authentic spot that doesn’t necessitate tedious trips to the hair salon and an endless perusing of high street shop isles, is akin to sifting through heaping bags of sand. Whilst the glitz and glam associated with rose water-doused anything is particularly alluring, sometimes all a person truly needs is a night crammed with cheese sambosa, garlicky shawarma and carefree conversations with those we love most.

Channeling our subconscious love for casual dining is New Cairo’s newest Lebanese hotspot, Beirut Lounge. The eatery caters to nostalgic times by evoking bygone ages when the only impending deadlines were those of what to wear on a first date with a chaotic situationship.

In contrast to most casual dining spots, Beirut Lounge actively promotes a calm and comfortable atmosphere; one where you can order platefuls of fattoush, tabouleh, hummus, and shish taouk while pondering over your next big entrepreneurial move. It fuels remote work procrastination, yes but it equally acts as a hidden haven when the hectic realities of our day-to-day lives becomes too much to bear. 

To seek refuge from the hustle and bustle  city life brings, head to Tolip Plaza, New Cairo.
