First Look Inside Chicha’s Upcoming New Cairo Branch

If Chicha has ever been on your El Gouna food hit list, get excited. The beloved Latin kitchen is heading to New Cairo’s 5A, and we’re getting a first look at its new home while it’s still under construction.

For the uninitiated, Chicha brings together Mexican, Peruvian and Nikkei influences, with a menu that has earned it a spot on many an El Gouna food itinerary. Think shrimp de camarón tacos, lamb barbacoa, beef and chicken tacos, a seriously indulgent black truffle risotto, and a brisket sandwich that means business. And if you’re the kind of person who plans dessert before the main course, its churros deserve a spot on your list, too.
