The Khan El-Khali Restaurant & Naguib Mahfouz Coffee Shop offers its diners something most restaurants lack; personality. This restaurant has a distinct and charming local attitude that is matched with sumptuous Egyptian food. The coffee shop, which is named after Egypt's Nobel prize-winning novelist, is great for a quick snack if you want to take a mini-break from shopping at the bazaar. The clientele at this inexpensive hot spot includes local artists and intellectuals.
