We’ve
watched
as
this
place
has
slowly
degraded
over
the
years
and
it
is
very
disappointing.
It
used
to
be
the
best
steak
you
could
have
in
town
when
I
first
moved
to
Egypt
5
years
ago.
It
was
a
world-class
steakhouse
by
any
standard.
My
partner
and
I
would
go
there
for
dates
on
special
occasions,
about
2
or
3
times
a
year
every
year
since
we
moved
(because
we
love
steak
but
we
had
to
mind
the
budget).
Now…I
had
no
issues
treating
ourselves
every
once
in
a
while,
even
though
this
place
is
SO
friggin
expensive
compared
to
amazing
steakhouses
in
Europe
and
North
America.
But
I
have
a
serious
issue
paying
3000-5000LE
for
a
meal
that
is
barely
edible
(depending
on
whether
you’re
going
to
have
a
bottle
of
wine).
We
went
there
for
my
birthday
this
year
and
it
was
officially
our
last
time
there
ever.
The
quality
just
kept
getting
worse
and
worse.
We
explained
to
the
chef
and
manager
that
this
is
not
the
quality
that
we
had
initially
come
for,
and
they
admitted
that
a
couple
of
things
have
changed
before
and
since
their
renovation,
including
the
way
they
season
and
cook
their
steak.
We
left
our
plates
behind
and
told
them
we
did
not
want
to
eat
it.
There
was
no
steak
crust
or
Maillard
reaction
-
and
it
was
cooked
medium-well
instead
if
medium-rare.
They
tried
to
make
it
up
to
us
with
a
stupid
leftover
slice
of
cake
that
was
clearly
over-dressed
with
whipped
cream
and
chocolate
syrup
to
compensate
for
its
blandness,
even
though
we
explicitly
told
them
we
did
not
want
it.
We
did
not
touch
it.
They
did
not
once
offer
to
re-cook
our
steak,
even
though
I
showed
him
the
centre.
They
did
not
refund
us
or
give
us
a
discount
or
tried
to
retain
our
custom
whatsoever,
even
though
we
didn’t
eat
the
steaks!
Just
a
stupid
old
slice
of
cake.
What
a
joke.
Thankfully,
I
found
an
amazing
butcher
who
knows
how
to
source
and
cut
good
meat,
bought
myself
a
nice
Le
Creuset
cast
iron
griddle
for
a
fraction
of
the
price
of
their
meal,
and
I
now
make
amazing
steaks
at
home.
Never
again!
