Al Haram, Egypt
Abou Shakra (ابو شقرة)
One of Egypt's most enduring addresses for traditional grilled meats, Abou Shakra sits on Abou El Houl Square in Al Haram, steps from the Giza Plateau. The restaurant has served successive generations of Cairenes and visitors since the mid-twentieth century, occupying a position in Egyptian dining that sits between everyday institution and cultural landmark. Its longevity is its most credible credential.
