in a most awesome example of spot on marketing the good folk at drinkies handed me a stella sponsored baladi bar guide to downtown cairo’s watering holes (super design by eps51). i will of course be doing first hand inspection over the coming weeks. first up may be stella bar, a

popular hangout for leftish intellectuals, talaat harb toursit-touts and khawagat like.

or maybe gemaica

like the island it takes its name after, it’s a rwody place, and a lot of fun. you automatically end up in the circle of regulars and will gently be dragged into their conversation. great place to make new friends.

and i could do with a few of those! i am committing myself to trying out every single listed venue and will review when worthy of course.
