KFC Cairo Egypt



Kentucky Fried Chicken in Cairo, Egypt.

I have been having some trouble finding good or acceptable food for me other than peanuts in Egypt, so I have gone to this KFC and had the Spicy Extra Crispy Chicken Dinner.

It is not cheap and cost five dollars U.S. for this meal; I tried yesterday to cut the meal down only two chicken breast. I guess they do not understand the world breast so they gave me to backs.

They also do not understand a queue or what “Extra Crispy” means, however I am very surprised at the really great quality of the food in this place. I am even more surprised to listen to the English Language Radio in the place and the person that was trying to give away or let a person win 500 Egyptian Pounds like an American Station.

The normal person here on the street does not speak English; however, there are many things in English. I am feeling this is one of them class system cultural things, where the rich class makes the rules, therefore to separate themselves, they have many things in British English so the normal person has the feeling he does not compete. A class system is enforced by the….

Pay a lot method.
Speak a special language method.
Not looking a lower class person in the eye.
Not talking to a lower class person.
Wearing special clothes.

  • What is Alexklimentos' problem? Maybe he has lived in Egypt TOO long. He also must have, "less of and education." Nice grammar.

  • Andy, there are lots of places you can find good food in Cairo - what in particular are you looking for?Also, the cultural feel of Cairo is French, not British. And increasingly American, as the fleet of yellow school buses will prove. Again, your criticism doesn't quite ring true to people like me who have spent a lot of time in Cairo.

  • Today I had another person from Egypt. May 2008, I am in Guatemala.I rejected the comment, this is one of the most deleted post on my blog.I read it again, trying to learn what I said that makes people so angry. I delete the comments, people do not get to argue on this blog.I read it too times. I think the problem is I was accidentally 100 percent accurate.Too funny, I had moderation off on the first comment, now always on.Egypt or visiting the Pyramids part has to be one of the most annoying set of people on the planet. I have never seen a more agressive group of people. However, this KFC was Great, that is my hard part, I went to this KFC daily. I am not about to learn Arabic in Egypt... hehehe I already speak French and Spanish, Arabic is good, but these countries are hard to muster energy for as they are bleak in ways.Africa Arabic is more fun.I do think about reading, but, who wants to listen to an Arabic teacher with a British Class system problem and a little dingy taking the piss and belittling me...I guess there is not way for the Egyptian reader to win here.I guess, do not learn English and stay in Egypt, the solution.

  • I think the not ring true is a comparison. People who live a long time in a country like it, I have lived a long time in 77 countries. I have a big amount of contries to compare.And for Brits, well any Brit looks down on an American, this is normal, we are the peasants that snubbed them.... heheheEgyptian people are nice, helpful in a I cannot be bothered way.On my list of countries to avoid.. do not even think about returning, however is in the way if I want to go by land to Africa.Now, everyone that is now very angry... think... pleaseThis is an internet page, get a life, go read a different page, do not hype yourself into a frenzy. Use the mouse and click away.
