Title: A Flavorful Journey to Egypt: A Delightful Breakfast Experience Rating: ★★★★★ I recently had the pleasure of indulging in an authentic Egyptian breakfast that left me both satisfied and in awe of the culinary traditions of this ancient land. From the moment I stepped into the charming little eatery tucked away in a bustling corner of the city, I was greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality. The chef, a master of his craft, welcomed me like an old friend and made me feel right at home. His passion for Egyptian cuisine was evident in every dish that adorned the breakfast spread before me. As I sat down, he graciously explained the different delicacies that awaited me, taking me on a sensory journey through the flavors and aromas of Egypt. My culinary adventure began with freshly baked Egyptian bread, still warm from the oven, boasting a delightful blend of crispiness and softness. Its aroma alone was enough to whet my appetite. The chef encouraged me to try it with a variety of accompanying dips and spreads, each one bursting with vibrant flavors. From the creamy tahini to the zesty baba ganoush, my taste buds were treated to an explosion of textures and tastes that transported me to the bustling streets of Cairo. The centerpiece of this magnificent breakfast was the ful medames, a traditional Egyptian dish made from slow-cooked fava beans. The chef's version was a revelation. The beans were perfectly seasoned, simmered to a velvety consistency that melted in my mouth. Topped with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh herbs, it was a symphony of flavors that I won't soon forget. No Egyptian breakfast is complete without falafel, and the chef's interpretation was exceptional. The golden, crispy exterior gave way to a fluffy, herb-infused interior that was simply divine. Served alongside a tangy tahini sauce, the falafel became a harmonious dance of textures and tastes. As I savored each dish, the chef's hospitality continued to shine. He shared stories of his culinary journey and the cultural significance of the breakfast traditions in Egypt, immersing me in the rich tapestry of Egyptian cuisine. His genuine passion for his craft was infectious, and it elevated the entire dining experience to another level. In conclusion, my Egyptian breakfast experience was a true feast for the senses. The chef's warm welcome, genuine hospitality, and culinary expertise combined to create an unforgettable dining adventure. I left with a satisfied belly, a newfound appreciation for Egyptian cuisine, and a desire to return and explore more of the culinary treasures that this beautiful country has to offer.

Wow...I love finding new places like this, and what a find. We ordered 3 Surprise Dinner Boxes using a third party 'meal saving' application. On arrival we were treated like VIPs, and shown to seats in the restaurant area, as our food was prepared. Nice surroundings, fresh looking decor albeit a little spartan. Not many customers at the time so atmosphere was not as good as I am sure it gets. Staff very welcoming and enthusiastic about the place. When the food arrived, we knew we were in for a treat by the smells emanating from the bag, the tonnage of which was impressive in itself. Once home we were treated to a selection of freshly grilled/pan fried fish, the taste of which was sublime, with a side of rice. Both prepared in a Mediterranean style with great flavours some delicate & some more robust. As well as the restaurant the building also houses a fish market, providing a comprehensive range of fresh and frozen seafood. Not a bad word to say about the place, food or service.

Be VERY, VERY careful driving in/out of the carpark - or lose your sump for ever. Unless you are in a true off road vehicle. Forget it if you drive anything more sporty that a Toyota Auris, like the Good Lady.
Turkish Ladies only breakfast was amazing ! Great atmosfeer. Set up was beautifully done, plenty of staff to serve the guest. A lot of varied food, everything was decorated according to the theme and so was the food and tea. The thought and dedication was visible in the results and presentation on the day. The food was super delicious can’t wait for their next event. ❤️ I would recommend over and over and over again. Thank you for making this event , serving us and making it accessible for everyone.

Went to this hidden gem on the 2nd December 2023. Food great , hot and very fresh, customer service excellent, room clean and aesthetically pleasing but was very cold sat in our coats but having said that the weather was frightfully cold however the hospitality took the edge of the cold. I would DEFINITELY visit this restaurant again. It’s just a shame that many people aren’t aware of its existence.

What a lovely place and atmosphere. Very friendly chef Mr Abdel Ghani and staff. Excellent service. Delicious fish and prawns. We were a large group of friends and loved different fried, grilled dishes. Very well cooked no hot spices as requested. Reminded us of the old beautiful dish fish you order in Alexandria. Well done team. We definitely recommend the best fish in uk and will come back with more friends.

Disappointed after a very good experience when this restaurant opened. Today we ordered boat for 4 persons which should include half kilo fried prawns and half kilo calamari and we ended up finding around 5-7 calamari and around 7 prawns. When we complained they told us that it must have shrunk with frying!!! And that that was whats written in the description Totally disappointed. Happy to feed that back to the owner who is a very nice man that served us in the first time when they first opened. Today very bad quality except for the grilled sea bass and very delayed service!! All of us were still hungry after spending £33,38 each Ahmed

An amazing new addition to Birmingham food scene to offer full pescatarian menu with a fish market style counter where you can choose your fish and how you would like it cooked. The place also has a fresh bread oven and amazing quality bread. Staff are super friendly however due to being new perhaps, the food took a long time to arrive, around 30 minutes despite restaurant being not that busy and one less star as they forgot the starter. Definitely recommend anyone wanting to eat some fresh fish in Birmingham and also a fantastic selection of cakes and balkawa. Must go if you are in Birmingham.

Calamari fish Restaurant is an absolute gem that truly embodies the essence of a top-notch seafood dinning experience.from the moment you step foot , you are greeted by a warm atmosphere. You choose from a wide variety of fish and shrimps. They were perfectly cooked. The main chef ,Mr Abdelfattah elsawy , is skillfully combining flavours to create seafood masterpieces. This was my second experience in that restaurant which was equally remarkable to the first one . One of my friends comes from london espicially to eat here. Thank you chef and your wonderful stuff.

Even though this chef keep repeating some corrupt Arab country cooking show all over socials which he was a runner up in back nearly a decade ago I doubt he done much cooking since. The food is mediocre which you can get for quarter price around corner and really not anything wow. Come on a fish coated in flour and deep fried is not an exec chef of Marriott standard. Amateur cook at best. He sure loves to blow his own trumpet. I gave 2 stars for polite waitress and parking.

Soo happy I discovered this lovely place - it's my new favourite restaurant. Food is INCRED, family-run business and they're so welcoming and friendly. To the left of the restaurant, they sell fresh sea food and to the right there is a lovely coffee place - haven't had a Turkish coffee and pastries that tasty and fresh anywhere else in Birmingham! (And I've tried my fair share haha). Perfect day out! Reminded me of my trip to Egypt last year. Can't wait to go back, my aim is to try the whole menu. Highly recommend.

Food was extremely good. The chef was really talented ( Abdelfattah Elsawy ). He is a world class chef. Worked in JW Marriott 7stars hotels in Egypt and Dubai. I have seen him before on the TV in Master Chef Arabs in 2020 on MBC channel. I was so impressed that he is the supervisor in the restaurant and the food he made was amazing. I have tried Iskandrani Prawns, Garlic and Lemon sauce fish. Sardines and rice. All was perfect.

The fish here was incredibly fresh and delicious. We had fried prawns and grilled sea bass Egyptian style and it was extremely well seasoned. We walked here as it wasn’t too far from where we lived , on the way back there was a flash storm and all Ubers were being cancelled. The owner dropped me and my family home. You can tell they really care about their place. I would highly recommend this place to all.

They have a fish market next door. Sell all sorts of sea fish. Was fascinating to see the fresh fish from a lobster to squids. They have a large selection of frozen fish too.
