RESTAURANTS (TRIED AND TESTED)

Luxor - Red Dragon Chinese Restaurant - Near the Meridian Hotel (ask the taxi Driver)

Luxor - Old Winter Palace - recommended for that special night out. Surrounded by high ceilings and low lighting, you feel like you have been whisked back into colonial Egypt. It is quite posh so guys you have to wear a shirt. To get into the really posh one you will need a tie as well. Well worth the effort though. 5 star Meal for four with Wine approximately £30. Pop into one of the bars after dinner for a Brandy and enter another world.
