In these cold, unforgiving months, there are few more comforting, warming things than food, glorious food - something that the folks at Downtown Cairo's towering hotel, The Nile Ritz-Carlton knows all too well.

With a growing reputation as a fine-dining hot-spot, the hotel is entering winter with some mighty tempting dine-and-drink options, starting with the oh-so chic Bar’oro,  with a special Goose Foie Gras dish, paired with whiskey or wine, whatever you’re feeling. Pair this with the bar's signature cocktails and a dessert of Cuban cigars in its walk-in humidor and you have quite the classy night.

If Italiano is more your flavor, Chef Carmine De Luggo’s got you covered at Vivo,  with a new menu that features dishes all built around imported European porcini mushrooms (and delicious local wines) a staple of Italian cuisine for Cairenes that really know how to eat. Prices starting from EGP 750 per person plus taxes.

There's a different type of new addition to the kitchens, too.
