Al Riwaq Cafe - Contemporary & Cool





Ok so let me tell you: Every time I visit the Al Riwaq gallery & cafe in Adliya, I feel super cultured and chic. Arguably one of the coolest interiors of any cafe on the island, Al Riwaq is one awesome place to just chill. Serving up some killer cakes and scrumptious sandwiches this place is doing every thing right. There's even a little store selling some kitsch handmade jewelry, notebooks and knick knacks from local and international artists.

This time I had the Turkey & Brie sandwich. And oh my glob it tasted SO good! Yummy layers of smoked turkey, creamy brie cheese, green apples, lettuce, and cranberry mayo are neatly assembled on fresh panini bread. That cranberry mayo sauce should be jarred and sold! I'm just sayin'. The flavor combo is a winner. Sweet, smokey, sour, salty, it doesn't get any more dynamic than that! And to top it all off, a delicious blueberry cheesecake and a cup of warm black coffee. This is my idea of an evening well fed spent.

Note: The Red Velvet cake here is TDF! Too bad they didn't have some when I visited.
