Follow on Google News | Filini , Eat and Feel Italian @ Radisson Blu Hotel Cairo HeliopolisWhile many stereotypical Italian restaurants in our country unfailingly serve up cheese dripping pizza and heaped up piles of pasta, Filini is one of the very few Italian restaurants that will take your mind off this unchangeable idea.
By: Radisson Blu, Cairo Heliopolis Upon our entrance, we had that “wow effect”; neat tables, parquet floor, subdued light, shell beaded curtains, cozy chairs and pink pictures; all wrapped up in a nicely laid out seating which is aesthetically pleasing. And as Italians who believe that food should be a celebration of life, you will definitely experience the same way of life with Filini staff who works in a show kitchen that allows us to feel right at home. This elegant eatery has very professional chefs who attend cookery schools in Milan yearly to work on menu design and ingredients and to share ideas with other Filini Chefs. We had a nice little chat with the executive Chef Abdel Nasser Ewais who specializes in creating classic and innovative Italian recipes, with an emphasis on fresh ingredients. Simple in design but rich in content, the menu retains your favorites alongside outstanding authentic Italian dishes. As an entrée, we selected seafood antipasti. It was a really thumbs up dish! This tasty plate is chock-full of the finest and freshest ingredients: It was served medium rare and no mint jelly allowed; you are missing what I consider to be the best piece of red meat ever. This meal let me believe this previously read “If you love beef and don’t love lamb, then you’ve never had it cooked properly”. We, also, opted for Tagliatelle Puttanesca; very yummy pasta tossed with a flavorsome tomato, caper, olive and anchovy sauce. Yet, if you are a pizza traditionalist, you’ll find what you are looking for; they serve the typical Italian pizzas starting from the Quattro Formagi to the Frutti Di Mari’s one. We would also love to try the Chocolate Fondant with pistachio ice cream or Filini Tiramisu but, since the servings were generously proportioned, we hadn’t any empty room for anything else. Overall, the dinner spelt pure mamma mia! We had a delicious and delightful dinner this night; our dishes were scraped clean! It’s a real home to a gem of Italian food at reasonable prices for a hotel restaurant. Filini, which serves daily from 6 pm to midnight, appease even the most demanding. The food itself shows plenty of flair the kitchen, combining fresh and colorful food in simple way to preserve the ingredients identity. If you wish having an enjoyable pleasant dining experience in a warm a swagger ambience, don’t miss out this opportunity but don’t forget to save a room for the desert.
