Bars in Cairo
There are plenty of bars in Cairo, although sometimes the distinction between what is a bar and what is a restaurant becomes a little blurred. Either way, Cairo boasts proper spit and sawdust dives (where women are probably better off accompanied by a male companion), as well as uber-trendy spots where the beautiful people congregate. And the rooftop bars are a godsend in the summer heat!
