This great restaurant lands all the way from East Asia to Northern Africa with a great variety of choices. Less than a year ago I was introduced to this restaurant and since then I have been a very loyal customer. It is located at one of the smallest streets of Zamalek with a regular-size banner. Once you get in you will be greeted by one of the sweetest servers ever and being overseen by the friendly Korean lady (owner).
When you are about to order, try to stay on the safe side. Get one plate from each section, as all sections are worth trying and leftovers can always become a late-night snack. No need to worry about salads and appetizers because you are always welcomed on the table with 7 different kinds of complimentary starters to get your mouth as watery as it should be. While you await the food you might want to check the guides and the books laying around about the country because the amazement of food will encourage you to pay it a visit.
