The best way to understand Egypt is to eat the way Cairenes eat, standing at a counter, plate in hand, with someone local telling you what you are tasting.
Your guide leads you to the spots regulars trust, not the tourist-facing ones. You try koshari, the national bowl of rice, lentils, pasta, and fried onion; taameya, Egypt's fava-bean take on falafel; hot feteer pastry; and street sweets like basbousa and om ali. Tea and fresh juice along the way, and your guide explains the history and the etiquette behind each dish.
Come hungry; this is a tasting walk across several stops rather than one sit-down meal. Lunch, snacks, and drinks are included.

Cairo
You move between local eateries and street stalls, plate by plate. A bowl of koshari, layered rice, lentils, macaroni, and crisp fried onions under a tangy tomato sauce, is Egypt's comfort food and a fair place to start. You taste taameya fried fresh, scoop ful with warm bread, pull apart flaky feteer, and finish on basbousa or creamy om ali. Your guide times the walk so you eat each thing at its best and explains how these dishes feed a city of more than 20 million. Pace yourself; there is more coming than you expect.
