We crossed our fingers and hopped in a cab and went to TGI Fridays. It’s on a boat! A boat! The service here was the best we’d had in Cairo but the food was pretty bland and overcooked. The view from inside was much better than the view from on the patio. You can see a big stretch of the Nile from inside and it’s very pretty. We were there from before sunset until after sunset and it was an awesome view. Our waiter also gave us some hibiscus juice on the house.
After that we came back to the hotel. Most of the staff here are super friendly and helpful. Our favourite guy had an innocent (I think) thing going with a Japanese girl who was staying here for a month to study Arabic. We met her 2 days before she had to leave and spoke a little Japanese with her. The other morning we said “how are you?” to him and he said “A little bad, because she left today.” He invited us to watch the inter-Egypt soccer game in the lobby with him at 9:30.
