The best seafood I ate was in Egypt! The fried calamari with dipping sauce was so delicious, inexpensive and the highest quality! Better than all European destinations.
Really?! Where did you get the calamari? No offense to Egypt, but every calamari I have tried was pretty disappointing. I'd love to know where to get some good calamari here. All the other seafood I have tried here is great though, love the shrimp and the fish
@@Gventures no problem, I will tell you the exact place. I actually travelled to Alexandria. That is where I ate seafood, I noticed the restaurants had some Greek and Italian influence on the menu along with Egyptian. Also the Patisserie I went to were French influenced too. It was an amazing eclectic cuisine. The place I had the best Calamari with perfect crispy coating and sweet chill dipping sauce is at Old Street Cafe in downtown Alexandria. The Seafood Pasta Alfredo is unbelievable too. Seafood was caught and cooked the same day from the Mediterranean sea. The best cakes and cinammon bun (I highly recommend) was at Delices Patisserie which is 1 minute walk from Old Cafe. Theses are local and tourist cafes and restaurant. I recommend Caribe restaurant too by Stanley Bridge for their meat and salad dishes too, it has a sea view and people sit right on the sand.
I propose that you can be a very good local tour guide for tourists in Egypt. Because i realized it is so hard to touists to go through cairo. 1. You can understand them very well and how they can enjoy in Egypt. . 2. You can plan very special schedul tour with reasonable prices.
Omg your arabic is getting so good my wife tried to speak God bless her soul I never had the patient to teach her before she died but seeing your arabic I realized that she needed to live in egypt longer one month will not do it
I am 29 years old from Texas now living in Egypt my second home. I have to say, I do enjoy all of your videos you have an awesome personality and I am honestly well impressed by the way you handle yourself here in Egypt and deal with the people not knowing much Arabic. I myself sometimes find it a bit challenging because I am still learning the language here also. Very good job 👍👍
Thank you Omar! Haha, yeah learning Arabic is a real struggle! I am sure I would be much better if I had the time to fully dedicate myself to the language, but because I am also working and making videos with my free time, I do not give myself enough time to study Arabic and practice more. It's forever a struggle of mine, I hope I can find a way to consistently make room for my Arabic studies without sacrificing RUclips videos or working less (as I of course still need to work to survive 😅). Best of luck to us both on this journey of learning Arabic while living in this beautiful country! ❤️🇪🇬
Overall I LOVE Egyptian food. The pickles/pickled veggies are one thing I couldn't like even though I wanted to. Each time i travel to Egypt I have to take pickles from here for my husbands family as they love them. dill, sweet, pickled okra, green beans and others. I can't wait to go back!
great video as always. you are doing great work in filming and editing .. and most impotent thing of all is the human contact, men in Egypt respect you for the person you are.
Gisselle, you are a very charming and charismatic young lady 🙂and I learned a lot about Egypt by following your channel, which helped me a when I stayed in Hurghada for the first time this year. All the best to you!
Thank you so much, that's fantastic to hear! I hope you had a great time in Hurghada, and hope you can come back and explore more of amazing Egypt! ❤️🇪🇬
Thank you for your interest in showing us Egypt. You are doing a really good job. I really enjoy watching your channel. And I'm sure many people have interesting ideas about what else there is to see. All the best and stay healthy
One for you, and one for the cat :D . Thanks for sharing a true and honest daily Vlogs of Egypt reflecting what casual tourists usually don't get to see.. Nevertheless, I'm glad you're enjoying your experience here as well.
The Fish you was eating was named Sea bass Fish, is one of the best quality of Fish available in Egypt, nice choice, next time you need to try a restaurant called Ebn Hamido at Nasr City , the Arabic translation called بن حميدو، try it is really excellent, it's originally from Alexandria but they open in Cairo, is top quality, you will not regret it. If you want to eat pigeon go to Farahat, the Arabic Name is فرحات ، the original shop at khan Elkalili or the Nasr City Branch, they are one of the oldest in Egypt, is very good. Have a great time.
Gigi always makes amazing videos. Her limited Arabic is a wealth of information for the rest of us who know nothing about Arabic. She is so informative, even going to lengths in showing us how to use Google translate to read foreign menus. If it wasn’t for Gigi, I’d be so lost in this foodie world. I love you Gigi! 🌈
Samak Arros: seabass fish. Samak Denese: sea Bream fish. Samak Bolty: tilapia fish. Samak Burri: Mullet fish. They cook it either grilled or fried. They are all good but seabass to me seabass is the best. You should try seafood soap, it's amazing over there.
Happy fish meal for you and your little cat friend...you start to read Arabic too this is good..he said to you the menu papers have not printed yet ! you are nice woman when you speak EG. Arabic.spend happy time here
Interesting looks good that fish , enjoyed the video and your Arabic has improved a lot reading is the hard part. great always enjoy seeing you and your interaction👍😎🙂🙂
Thanks Nabil! I think I sucked so much because I was in Budapest for a little while not using my Arabic for a while, and it's been a few months since I've had Arabic class, I just recently started again as my teacher was unavailable for a long time, so I have a new tutor now. As long as I stay focused, I should improve a bit
Hey Gisselle! I am currently in Cairo as a female solo traveler and I would love to meet you❤ I've been watching all your videos, they were so helpful expecially now that I'm here! Your way to show Egypt and its beauty is really unique so please keep on going because you are doing a great job! Wish you all the best and send you lots of love ❤
Thank you so much Elizz! If I have time I would love to meet you too, but I am not sure I will while you are here, I stay very busy with work 😅 How long will you be in Cairo for?
I'm leaving next week my dear, there is actually not much time.. If we are able to, I would be super happy to meet you, really :) If not, this for sure will be another good resson to come back to this amazing city. I am seriously considering the possobility of moving here, my job would allow me to so.....we'll see :)
@@Elizz7311 I might have time tomorrow, but I am also going out to film, so not 100% sure about it. Anyway, you should send me a message on IG: mygventures, that way we can communicate more easily. Happy to hear you're loving Egypt! ❤🇪🇬
As always I look forward to Sunday’s for your video’s. I find the Egyptians so accommodating, how lovely of that guy to take the time to help you out with the menu. When I come to Cairo in September hopefully I will see you whizzing pass on your motorbike. Until next Sunday ❤❤ Charmain
Thank you Charmain! That's so cool to hear you like my videos that much!!! And yes I agree, this guy was so helpful and kind to take the time to help me out and show me everything, I got top notch service here! You just may see me out driving around 😄 Or maybe even walking around vlogging. If you do see me, say hi! ❤️
Informative and entertaining as always, Gisselle! Thank you for giving us an insight into what is on offer at these local outlets. That fish looked delicious, along with the accompaniments! I think you did well with your Arabic. I went to night-classes to learn basic Arabic many years ago in London (when I was starting to visit Egypt), but I had to give up after a while because of its difficulty, especially the written word! So my basic Arabic is extremely basic!! The young men at the restaurant/kitchen in your video were so nice and helpful towards you, and I know this is typical of the Egyptians. Thank you also for your interesting video from the Sphinx International Airport in Giza on your return from Budapest. I know it was in the early hours of the morning but, my goodness, what a difference compared to Cairo International or Luxor International, both of which I have experienced over the years! Sometimes the word 'chaos' doesn't fully describe that experience! Thank you for all the great information! 😀William
Haha, yes Cairo International is messy. And Arabic is very hard! It's also been a long time since I studied or took classes, but I just recently started again. I think I can read a little faster than I did in this video already, after looking at the alphabet again. Thank you William! 🥰
What you have eaten is Mullet fish , we call it " Samak Bori " or "بوري" in arabic . Bori is either eated grilled or " singari " style . I totally recommend going for the " Singari " Style , it's 100% better if you are eating without rice or anything else . Singari is a special way of cooking the mullet fish by opening it in half and adding some garlic / lemon / onion / seasoning .. etc
@@anUntouchable Hmm. I dunno, things were changing so much around that time. Once they floated the pound it stabilized a lot, but I can't even remember or couldn't keep track of the cost of things when things were going crazy here with the EGP, the cost of things was one thing one day and another the next
Oh it's happening again already?! Wow that came up fast! I have to work that day, but if I had known I would have taken work off! I guess I will have to go next year...😕
Well made video, I it’s think you can ask for some advice before you go. The skin is not to be eaten. You eat the dish with rice, and you add the tahini as a dip. I think any Egyptian would be happy to give you advice about best places and to try as well as how to eat. Tahini is the national dip here, we add it to many dishes and food. I personally love grilled fish in Egypt, it’s special, and you don’t find this way of cooking any where else. Also tahini sauce is delicious and I miss it too. These are things I love from the cuisine, and I am not just being biased.
Thank you man! I actually have been living in Egypt for 2.5 years now, so I am fairly familiar with some of the cuisine (such as tahina, for example). I just don't eat a lot of fish, as mentioned in the video 😅 And I didn't want to eat any rice because of my diet 😅 But I do get many great suggestions from subscribers, and my Egyptian friends and my Egyptian boyfriend. If you ever have any suggestions, let me know! Thanks so much 🥰🙏
As always, great video Gisselle! This is my favorite seafood restaurant in Giza, and I still recommend you try their regular seafood soup (costs EGP 115 from the menu you showed) next time :) Also, their basic meal costs EGP 110 at the top-middle in the menu with a yellowish background, and it is made of: pickles, tahini, Sayadiah rice, fish fillet, and 4-6 shrimps.
Haha, nice! Yeah I remember you recommending me this place and finally made it out there. It's a good spot, I definitely plan to return there again. They also deliver I was told 😅 I will probably return to make a video about the soup though, when it cools. Thanks for the recommendation Darcy, it was delicious! ❤️🙏
@@Gventures Yes, winter is the best time for that soup :) Your great content is always an excellent source for anyone who wants to visit and enjoy the real Egypt, which most people don't know much about! Looking forward to watching your upcoming amazing videos! Be safe and have a great day!
@@hanygeorge8603 Lol. Well the summer is very harsh, I can't argue with that. Thank God I have AC. I do like driving in Egypt, and the chaos of the streets to be honest, it just appeals to me. Though I do hate driving on the Ring Road 🤣
Great video...they r never boring. Fish looked good. Would love to see more of downtown, especially early morning, local handcraft shops in Cairo be good, ibn tulin n gayer Anderson musuem, Rhoda n nilometer...aw Cario-everything😂...even local bakeries(never seen or eaten such huge yummy crossiants)... not good for ur diet sorry...ps dieting is very bad for you...healthier choices instead. Have u done a video of Saqqara? If u have I must have missed it. Cheers
Thanks Judith! I do plan to film so early morning rides of downtown sometime soon. I will consider some of these other suggestions as well, thanks 🥰 Actually by dieting I just meant eating healthier, that's why I said in the video "less sugar, less bread." I have done a video of Saqqara, but it was a long time ago when I was new to vlogging. I would like to return sometime and do a better video of that. Here's the old one of Saqqara: ruclips.net/video/MHSb-exn-m4/видео.html
Boulti and bouree..these are the 2 main fish i recall ppl trying to convince me to eat..i hate fish except salmon..mahshee cromb..ur the best😊..ur officially an egyptian woman..that is how they get their curves😂😂..eating mashee cromb..that man in the galabia behind u looked hungry..bitngan mikhaalil..pickled eggplant..i think that was shrimp kofte..wadi al nile...How much was a kilo of gambari (shrimp). The bbq squid is usually good as well..Sweet you fed the cat..they all look underfed there sadly...
Do you live here? Are you Egyptian? The women don't simply get their curves from eating mahshy kromb....it wasn't shrimp kofta. I didn't ask how much the shrimp was, I ordered the fish
Yeah but I don't have a sweet tooth so I never eat that many sweets anyway. I like sugar in my drinks, but it's easy to request drinks without sugar so, not a big issue. The bread is hard, if I want to eat out. I'm cooking more at home now and I suppose it's good because I'm saving a little money doing that
@Gventures me neither but hard when staying in hotel or hostel n cooking facilities limited to get the fresh veges, see them in markets but rarely in stakeout as used to having here...esp steamed greens. Love the local bread.
@@judithmartin6896 Yeah but I'm obviously talking about myself here, I said I am on a diet in the video. Then you said to eat healthier, but diets are bad. Yet a diet is just a restriction of certain foods. Less sugar, less bread, is my current diet. I love Egyptian bread too, and sugar, but I am trying to cut back on them. I live in an apartment, not a hostel or hotel, so I can do that.
Wish I could of seen this video we were craving fish and ended at some place in new Cairo starts with the B and it’s like in small strip mall place never again lol this place looks way better
Ah yeah, two words that would have been a red flag for me "strip mall." 😅 I'm usually in or near the heart of Cairo though, so there's plenty of great options everywhere. New Cairo is kind of far out there
"I found a new channel on RUclips a few weeks ago that I really love. In fact, it's the only thing I've watched in my free time lately. An American girl.. she is actually living there now, in Cairo. I wish I had a fraction of her courage 😌😆 She has videos at some of the places you've been (the pyramids of course, Salah El Din Citadel, the rock church, etc). All my mind could see was the photos of YOU standing in the places she was visiting .. and it just made me miss you soo much more." I quoted part of a friend of mine message, she is American and at mango coffee Mahmoud and Kareem also talked with me about you,That's what makes me subscribed to your channel, I'm happy for you, wishing you always be safe, happy and smiling with the 💓
Wow, that's so cool! And welcome to the channel! Lol I love that Mahmoud and Kareem and Mango Cafe mentioned me too, I stop by that little cafe anytime I am down by the pyramids. Much love to you! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks man! Ah, maybe sometime in the future. But I don't have plans to anytime soon. I want to visit other places along the beaches that I haven't visited yet
Hello Giselle, wow..... watching this video , I am hungry now... Yes, in Alexandria I ate very delicious fish or sea food at all. In Cairo / Giza , I remember I went to a fish restaurant very good. I enjoyed the whole meal with also sea food. Not really expensive, affordable price. I am going to check the name of the restaurant with my Egyptian sadikis in order to check if you are interested any time. Buenos Días!
can you do a quick video about yourself , who you are , what are you doing in Egypt , what is your job , etc... , but keep it short please btw your bike ride is so nice , i like your food vlogs
Lol, I haven't made a video like that before because I feel like it is a bit conceited to make a video just talking about myself, and probably not very interesting either. I think people watch my videos because they want to see Egypt, not me just talking about myself. But maybe I'm wrong? I guess, if your comment gets a lot of likes, then maybe I will consider doing that. Thanks for watching, I love making the food vlogs too! And I LOVE my motorcycle 😍
Thank you Habibti, when I come to Giza, I will definitely visit that restaurant 🩷. And you have to learn how to say rice in Arabic 😂. My suggestion for your further videos is perhaps a little more about the Nile. What does the coast look like, are there restaurants, cafes along the coast... Thank you! 🩷🩷
Ah, I wrote in the video that I DO know how to say rice, my brain just wasn't working that day. I wrote that in the subtitles. More of the Nile? Okay, maybe I can do something like that. Thanks for your suggestion!
@@Gventures Haha Habibti! Just kidding, I know you know how to say rice! 😂🩷 I have days like this too.. Thank you in advance for the video about the Nile! 🩷🩷
Ah in Nasr City? I don't know if I'm willing to drive out there to go eat 😅 But I'll write it down so maybe in the future if I find myself out that way. Thanks 😁
@@Gventures they have many branches Nasr City, settlements, maadi choose what isthe nearest....i used to eat from them for like a year during covid.... 😋😊💚
What is your motorcycle brand? I like the way the seller is so enthusiastic in explaining things to you about the menus. Take good care of yourself. Thank you, ma'am
Yes best way to eat fish is with hands, and I would say same for all meals except soup. But these civilised western fork/spoon/knife make people avoid eating with hands and missing most natural way to eat, hands should be clean of course.🌹🌷♥♥
I've noticed lately a lot of cats seem to be drawn to you. Maybe the Egyptian cat goddess Bastet is trying to reach out to you. Either way, thank you for feeding those sweet kitties. God bless Egypt. That food looked delicious btw.
Haha, Bastet, that would be cool. I love cats, so maybe they can sense my friendly intentions (and the fact I will probably give them any food I have 😅). I love them all so much, I wish I could give them all better lives
Yeah you should! Really good stuff, I am definitely going to go back, but I think next time I will order a bigger fish. With a little lime on top, amazing 🤤
I think the kitty cat understands Arabic more than English 😆 we love to eat Sea Bass and also the other fish beside it, Seabream. Both fish has less bones and more meat. I haven’t tried it grilled but we usually make a soup dish out of it called Tinola. Just water, onions, tomatoes, spring onion then the fish. It’s a very comforting Filipino dish.
@@GventuresHa, I won't mention the pack of 30 of them sitting in my fridge. I'll bring the torts, you supply the fish. 😉 It all looks delicious and cheap, bien provecho! 😋 What's the guy on the loudspeaker in the background all about? It was that kitty's lucky day!
@@fv1291 🤣Damn you! Eat a delicious corn taco for me next time. And yeah bring a suitcase full of corn tacos to me in Egypt🤣🤣The loudspeaker was playing the Quran, LOTS of stores and restaurants play it all over Egypt, it's a part of the sound of Egypt to me just as much as the honking and beeping😄
You got it. I like them heated up with a little butter and salt. Thanks for the info on the background sounds. Your honking and beeping is what keeps you safe, so beep on!! Have a good night. 😊
I love it when I hear you speak Arabic language , Egyptian dialect.
I try 😅

I'm really like to see you in Egypt and i hope to meet you in streets by chance 😂
Support you and keep going 👏❤️
What you have eaten is Mullet fish , we call it " Samak Bori " or "بوري" in arabic .
Bori is either eated grilled or " singari " style .
I totally recommend going for the " Singari " Style , it's 100% better if you are eating without rice or anything else .
Singari is a special way of cooking the mullet fish by opening it in half and adding some garlic / lemon / onion / seasoning .. etc
Damn, that sounds good! I will have to try that next time I am at a seafood restaurant. Shukran!
Looks so good, Love the seafood there and in Vietnam.
Me too ❤️
Wow, looks like an amazing place! I wish there was smellavision for the food!
I'm a Canadian Egyptian. Welcome to Egypt. Very nice video.
Shukran ☺️ I've been living in Egypt for over 2.5 years and absolutely love it. Allatul Masr! ❤️🇪🇬
Your a awsom person 🎉
Thanks...
Girl, you are so cool 😎😎😎
95 now for Marlboro? last time I wast in Egypt the white filter Marlboro was 45 LE if I remember
When was the last time you were here?
@@Gventures around a year and a half
@@anUntouchable Hmm. I dunno, things were changing so much around that time. Once they floated the pound it stabilized a lot, but I can't even remember or couldn't keep track of the cost of things when things were going crazy here with the EGP, the cost of things was one thing one day and another the next
One for me, one for the cat 😂
نورتي مصر ي حبيبتي ❤❤❤❤❤❤
There’s mango festival at Asmalia city this coming Friday,
Very interesting so if you have time try to go there,
We will be there
Oh it's happening again already?! Wow that came up fast! I have to work that day, but if I had known I would have taken work off! I guess I will have to go next year...😕
Well made video, I it’s think you can ask for some advice before you go. The skin is not to be eaten. You eat the dish with rice, and you add the tahini as a dip. I think any Egyptian would be happy to give you advice about best places and to try as well as how to eat. Tahini is the national dip here, we add it to many dishes and food. I personally love grilled fish in Egypt, it’s special, and you don’t find this way of cooking any where else. Also tahini sauce is delicious and I miss it too. These are things I love from the cuisine, and I am not just being biased.
Thank you man! I actually have been living in Egypt for 2.5 years now, so I am fairly familiar with some of the cuisine (such as tahina, for example). I just don't eat a lot of fish, as mentioned in the video 😅 And I didn't want to eat any rice because of my diet 😅 But I do get many great suggestions from subscribers, and my Egyptian friends and my Egyptian boyfriend. If you ever have any suggestions, let me know! Thanks so much 🥰🙏
Ground sesame الطحينة هى مع بعض من الخل والماء
As always, great video Gisselle! This is my favorite seafood restaurant in Giza, and I still recommend you try their regular seafood soup (costs EGP 115 from the menu you showed) next time :) Also, their basic meal costs EGP 110 at the top-middle in the menu with a yellowish background, and it is made of: pickles, tahini, Sayadiah rice, fish fillet, and 4-6 shrimps.
Haha, nice! Yeah I remember you recommending me this place and finally made it out there. It's a good spot, I definitely plan to return there again. They also deliver I was told 😅 I will probably return to make a video about the soup though, when it cools. Thanks for the recommendation Darcy, it was delicious! ❤️🙏
@@Gventures Yes, winter is the best time for that soup :) Your great content is always an excellent source for anyone who wants to visit and enjoy the real Egypt, which most people don't know much about! Looking forward to watching your upcoming amazing videos! Be safe and have a great day!
Hahaha I laughed soooo much on 11:45
😅 Yeah usually I ask the price of something BEFORE I order it 🤣 Also, I'm working on that Arabic....slowly, slowly but surely.
Thanks!
Thank you so much Tina! 🥰
another great film i was mazed at the number of freelance dogs and cats in egypt they seemed to get along ok knew how to bum snacks i fed them plenty
We respect and love ❤️ and your movies we as Egyptian had great hospitality for our guest
Thank you so much! And very true, Egyptians are very friendly, welcoming and generous ❤️
Bonapetit delicious food
You have a fantastic attitude despite the harsh life in Egypt
Thank you, I like positivity. But what do you mean by "harsh life in Egypt?"
@@GventuresI lived in Egypt for 24 years and I know traffic is really bad plus temperature in summer and chaos everywhere
@@hanygeorge8603 Lol. Well the summer is very harsh, I can't argue with that. Thank God I have AC. I do like driving in Egypt, and the chaos of the streets to be honest, it just appeals to me. Though I do hate driving on the Ring Road 🤣
Great video...they r never boring. Fish looked good. Would love to see more of downtown, especially early morning, local handcraft shops in Cairo be good, ibn tulin n gayer Anderson musuem, Rhoda n nilometer...aw Cario-everything😂...even local bakeries(never seen or eaten such huge yummy crossiants)... not good for ur diet sorry...ps dieting is very bad for you...healthier choices instead.
Have u done a video of Saqqara? If u have I must have missed it. Cheers
Thanks Judith! I do plan to film so early morning rides of downtown sometime soon. I will consider some of these other suggestions as well, thanks 🥰 Actually by dieting I just meant eating healthier, that's why I said in the video "less sugar, less bread." I have done a video of Saqqara, but it was a long time ago when I was new to vlogging. I would like to return sometime and do a better video of that.
Here's the old one of Saqqara:

Boulti and bouree..these are the 2 main fish i recall ppl trying to convince me to eat..i hate fish except salmon..mahshee cromb..ur the best😊..ur officially an egyptian woman..that is how they get their curves😂😂..eating mashee cromb..that man in the galabia behind u looked hungry..bitngan mikhaalil..pickled eggplant..i think that was shrimp kofte..wadi al nile...How much was a kilo of gambari (shrimp). The bbq squid is usually good as well..Sweet you fed the cat..they all look underfed there sadly...
Do you live here? Are you Egyptian? The women don't simply get their curves from eating mahshy kromb....it wasn't shrimp kofta. I didn't ask how much the shrimp was, I ordered the fish
Thanks for link look forward to watching. Yes u did say less sugar, hard in Egypt, they love their sweet stuff.
Yeah but I don't have a sweet tooth so I never eat that many sweets anyway. I like sugar in my drinks, but it's easy to request drinks without sugar so, not a big issue. The bread is hard, if I want to eat out. I'm cooking more at home now and I suppose it's good because I'm saving a little money doing that
@Gventures me neither but hard when staying in hotel or hostel n cooking facilities limited to get the fresh veges, see them in markets but rarely in stakeout as used to having here...esp steamed greens. Love the local bread.
@@judithmartin6896 Yeah but I'm obviously talking about myself here, I said I am on a diet in the video. Then you said to eat healthier, but diets are bad. Yet a diet is just a restriction of certain foods. Less sugar, less bread, is my current diet. I love Egyptian bread too, and sugar, but I am trying to cut back on them. I live in an apartment, not a hostel or hotel, so I can do that.
Not only you show us how to get sea food, but also how to deal with the Egyptians with little arabic that you have. Tq.
Wish I could of seen this video we were craving fish and ended at some place in new Cairo starts with the B and it’s like in small strip mall place never again lol this place looks way better
Ah yeah, two words that would have been a red flag for me "strip mall." 😅 I'm usually in or near the heart of Cairo though, so there's plenty of great options everywhere. New Cairo is kind of far out there
Yes Yes Yes Welcome back , I prefer Asmak Elneel on Elfalaky St.
"I found a new channel on RUclips a few weeks ago that I really love. In fact, it's the only thing I've watched in my free time lately. An American girl.. she is actually living there now, in Cairo. I wish I had a fraction of her courage 😌😆
She has videos at some of the places you've been (the pyramids of course, Salah El Din Citadel, the rock church, etc). All my mind could see was the photos of YOU standing in the places she was visiting .. and it just made me miss you soo much more."
I quoted part of a friend of mine message, she is American and at mango coffee Mahmoud and Kareem also talked with me about you,That's what makes me subscribed to your channel, I'm happy for you, wishing you always be safe, happy and smiling with the 💓
Wow, that's so cool! And welcome to the channel! Lol I love that Mahmoud and Kareem and Mango Cafe mentioned me too, I stop by that little cafe anytime I am down by the pyramids. Much love to you! ❤️❤️❤️
another great video
are you coming back to hurghada?
Thanks man! Ah, maybe sometime in the future. But I don't have plans to anytime soon. I want to visit other places along the beaches that I haven't visited yet
tilapia is the most delicious fish in egypt
I agree
Hello Giselle, wow..... watching this video , I am hungry now... Yes, in Alexandria I ate very delicious fish or sea food at all. In Cairo / Giza , I remember I went to a fish restaurant very good. I enjoyed the whole meal with also sea food. Not really expensive, affordable price. I am going to check the name of the restaurant with my Egyptian sadikis in order to check if you are interested any time. Buenos Días!
Sounds great, gracias Carlos! Buenos dias 😁
@@Gventures The restaurante name is Samakumuk and Dokki street, 28 Suleiman Johar I hope is the right name in English letters.
@@CarlosCruz-vm3di Alright I'll check it out, thanks man! 🙏
can you do a quick video about yourself , who you are , what are you doing in Egypt , what is your job , etc... , but keep it short please
btw your bike ride is so nice , i like your food vlogs
Lol, I haven't made a video like that before because I feel like it is a bit conceited to make a video just talking about myself, and probably not very interesting either. I think people watch my videos because they want to see Egypt, not me just talking about myself. But maybe I'm wrong? I guess, if your comment gets a lot of likes, then maybe I will consider doing that.
Thanks for watching, I love making the food vlogs too! And I LOVE my motorcycle 😍
@@Gventures make a food vlog and Q/A in the same video , post on the community tab a poll about that and take the questions from the comments
@@inasnhor Not a bad idea. Thanks inasnhor!
Thank you Habibti, when I come to Giza, I will definitely visit that restaurant 🩷. And you have to learn how to say rice in Arabic 😂. My suggestion for your further videos is perhaps a little more about the Nile. What does the coast look like, are there restaurants, cafes along the coast... Thank you! 🩷🩷
Ah, I wrote in the video that I DO know how to say rice, my brain just wasn't working that day. I wrote that in the subtitles.
More of the Nile? Okay, maybe I can do something like that. Thanks for your suggestion!
@@Gventures Haha Habibti! Just kidding, I know you know how to say rice! 😂🩷 I have days like this too.. Thank you in advance for the video about the Nile! 🩷🩷
@@waternymph978 😂Damn jokes are so hard to get in text, it's never clear to me! 😂
TATA sons sea food is really good and very famous in Cairo u need to try it أسماك اولاد طاطا, it's little bit expensive tbh 😅
Ah in Nasr City? I don't know if I'm willing to drive out there to go eat 😅 But I'll write it down so maybe in the future if I find myself out that way. Thanks 😁
@@Gventures they have many branches Nasr City, settlements, maadi choose what isthe nearest....i used to eat from them for like a year during covid.... 😋😊💚
@@generatingnewworld2902 I dunno, the only one that came up was Nasr City. Anyway, yeah maybe I'll try them out sometime. Thanks again man!
@@Gventures Anytime GIGI 😊💚🇪🇬🇪🇬
Good your speaking arabic
What is your motorcycle brand? I like the way the seller is so enthusiastic in explaining things to you about the menus. Take good care of yourself.
Thank you, ma'am
I have a Benelli VLR Sport 200cc 😍🏍️
Yes the guy was very helpful, so kind of him to go the extra mile. Thank you 🙏
Yes best way to eat fish is with hands, and I would say same for all meals except soup. But these civilised western fork/spoon/knife make people avoid eating with hands and missing most natural way to eat, hands should be clean of course.🌹🌷♥♥
I've noticed lately a lot of cats seem to be drawn to you. Maybe the Egyptian cat goddess Bastet is trying to reach out to you. Either way, thank you for feeding those sweet kitties. God bless Egypt. That food looked delicious btw.
Haha, Bastet, that would be cool. I love cats, so maybe they can sense my friendly intentions (and the fact I will probably give them any food I have 😅). I love them all so much, I wish I could give them all better lives

Perfect 🥰 💞 hope you have always great time 💞
@@aideelbannan1864 Thank you, I certainly do! ❤
Hello, I subbed.
Thank you, welcome to the channel!
Marsa Allam is a good place to visit
Yes I want to go there too sometime. It is just very far away 😅
wow i drove by that restaurant yesterday! gotta try it. The fish here is great generally.
Yeah you should! Really good stuff, I am definitely going to go back, but I think next time I will order a bigger fish. With a little lime on top, amazing 🤤
@@Gventures Nice I will! I recommend the Arus or Ishr Bayad. Those are my favs.
@@Metu117 Well lucky me, because I'm pretty sure the fish I chose was Arus. I want to try it singari next time
@@Gventures Yes good call!
Good job ❤
I think the kitty cat understands Arabic more than English 😆 we love to eat Sea Bass and also the other fish beside it, Seabream. Both fish has less bones and more meat. I haven’t tried it grilled but we usually make a soup dish out of it called Tinola. Just water, onions, tomatoes, spring onion then the fish. It’s a very comforting Filipino dish.
Sounds good 😁
Find yourself some corn tortillas, and show them the art of fish tacos! 😋
Argh! Don't talk to me about corn tortillas, they are impossible to find here and I really miss them! 😭 Would be a bomb fish taco though!
@@GventuresHa, I won't mention the pack of 30 of them sitting in my fridge. I'll bring the torts, you supply the fish. 😉 It all looks delicious and cheap, bien provecho! 😋 What's the guy on the loudspeaker in the background all about? It was that kitty's lucky day!
@@fv1291 🤣Damn you! Eat a delicious corn taco for me next time. And yeah bring a suitcase full of corn tacos to me in Egypt🤣🤣The loudspeaker was playing the Quran, LOTS of stores and restaurants play it all over Egypt, it's a part of the sound of Egypt to me just as much as the honking and beeping😄
You got it. I like them heated up with a little butter and salt. Thanks for the info on the background sounds. Your honking and beeping is what keeps you safe, so beep on!! Have a good night. 😊
@@fv1291 True that. Thanks Filbert, and you have yourself a good rest of your day 😎
❤❤❤
I recommend shrimp in طاطا shops anywhere in cairo cooked in butterfly method
Butterfly method, that is singari right?
@@Gventures singari methods is for cooking fish ...but butterfly is for shrimps
@@amalfathy3811 Oh okay, thank you 🙏
