?EAT THIS TONIGHT-

Indulge in a night of fine dining and entertainment at CinCin. You could almost miss this restaurant at the quiet end of the Walk of Cairo, but beyond their oak door is a thick velvet green curtain that gives the illusion of leaving the world outside and being enveloped into a new environment.

Welcome to one of the coolest interiors in the country. The temperature in the space is cool, music is on point and service is quick and attentive. We were impressed with the elements that decorated the space, the minimalistic black tables, the high ceilings, the mix of wood on soft lights really does help the weary unwind.

Bring on the grilled octopus. Even though it isn’t a usual favorite, this Greek delicacy is exquisite. Soft, not chewy, and with a spritz of lemon gave us the touch of the sea. The souvlaki really did taste like souvlaki, and not shish tawouk and the tzatziki wasn’t overly garlicky. The Duck Arancini was fought over, the darker meat paired with the cheesy-crispy interior had us diving in for more.

Allow the host to recommend the main course. He happily proposed the Chateaubriand and boy, were we glad he did. Enough for a small group, each of us was satisfied with the tender morsels of meat cooked to a delicious medium. We didn’t have space for more mains, but we liked the sound of the ribs paired with the orzo.

You can check them out in Sahel. Located in or on a rooftop terrace at Address Marassi GolfResort. They are also not usually this quiet, as they do have fun brunches and the ambiance in Sahel strongly suggests a vibe of fun and frolicking.

PRO TIP- They open quite late at the Walk of Cairo, which makes it the ideal venue to head to after a long day of negotiations or after you put the goblins to bed.
