Abo Faris
An excellent eatery specialising in Syrian shwarma, a mouth-watering concoction of spicy grilled lamb or chicken slathered in garlicky mayonnaise and pickles, rolled up inside roasted flatbread. A full menu is available, and seating is indoors or in a garden patio (you can also do takeaway). It’s about 500m before the Carrefour City Centre Mall, on the left as you’re coming from the city. Most taxi drivers will know it.

Abu Ashraf
One of this street’s fish specialists. Make your selection from the day’s catch then take a seat under the green awning and watch it being cooked. Sea bass stuffed with garlic and herbs is a speciality, as is the creamy prawn kishk (casserole). Price is determined by weight and type of fish, ranging from grey mullet at E£40 per kilo to jumbo prawns at E£150 per kilo.

Abu Nasr
This unusually tidy place serves good, filling kushari. If you find it lacks mojo, throw in a dash of the vinegar and spicy red sauce it’s served with. If it’s still a bit plain for your taste, order sides of tahini and banga and chuck them in too. There’s no sign in English, so look for the gleaming gold bowls.

Abaza Restaurant
This hole-in-the-wall serves straight-ahead kofta (mincemeat and spices grilled on a skewer) and other grilled meats in a little upstairs room with a red carpet and single table. There’s no sign in English, so look out for the chickens spit-roasting in a metal grill at the front.

Hosny Grill
If you’re a little fished out in Anfushi, Hosny Grillhraf, is a semi-outdoor restaurant specialising in tasty grilled chicken, kebabs and other meats, served with the usual triumvirate of vegetables, salad and rice.

Farag
A highly recommended and very local seafood joint, a bit hard to spot – the sign is high above street level, so look up to be sure you don’t miss it. If you do, just ask around; everyone knows it.
