The Ultimate Thanksgiving Guide for Homesick People in Cairo
’Tis the season to be thankful for everything and everyone in your life, but not when you’re hosting a Thanksgiving party this weekend, which is why we’re here for you.
If you’d rather spend your Thanksgiving weekend levelling up in Trivia Crack or binge-watching Aziz Ansari’s new TV show Master of None than standing over a hot stove forearm-deep up a turkey’s butt, then ordering in for Thanksgiving might just be for you. Luckily, a slew of Egypt’s top eateries will make it as easy as picking up the phone.
