Egyptian cuisine is excellent, combining many of the
best traditions of Middle Eastern cooking, and there are both large
hotel restaurants and smaller specialist ones throughout the main
towns. Some of the larger hotels in Cairo and its environs have
kitchens serving top quality cosmopolitan dishes. In the center of
Cairo, American-style snack bars are also spreading. Restaurants have
waiter service. Although Egypt is a Muslim country, alcohol is
available in cafe-style bars and good restaurants. The legal drinking
age is 21.
