First Look at the New Tabali Branch at the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir

When Tabali first announced its move into the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir, it sounded almost poetic — a restaurant best known for serving Egypt’s everyday comfort food, now set against the backdrop of its most monumental past. The bistro quietly opened over the summer, but new images finally offer a closer look at how the space brings Egypt’s present and past into conversation.Because nothing pairs with antiquity like a piping-hot plate of taameya. So after you’ve admired millennia-old treasures, there’s only one more cultural experience you shouldn’t skip: lunch. Expect foul, taameya, hawawshi, lentils, pickles, and straightforward flavours.
