Weโ€™ll go to the vibrant local market to eat grilled fish, try a legendary seafood restaurant on the beach, and eat some street food seafood sandwiches. Alban Swissra (https://maps.app.goo.gl/zUR7PXYPQjefuvD7A) - But first, weโ€™re starting with a legendary breakfast of eggs and cheese at one of the most popular breakfast restaurant in all of Alexandria - letโ€™s find out why so many people come here to eat? Total price - 265 EGP ($5.24) Fish Market, Seafood - Next up on this Egyptian seafood tour we headed to the very local and very busy market, thatโ€™s known for selling seafood. From crabs and cuttlefish to a big assortment of fish, this is where locals come to buy seafood. Within the market we found Al Muhammada Fish Paradise, a restaurant where you can buy fresh seafood and have them cook it right there on spot in the market. They made some delicious Egyptian seafood dishes for us including a Mediterranean sea bass marinated in onions and tomatoes and baked with its eggs, whole grilled tilapia the Egyptian way, and deep fried cuttlefish. Price for all the seafood - 1065 EGP ($21.06), and price for cooking - 365 EGP ($7.22) El Lol Seafood Restaurant (https://maps.app.goo.gl/E6Wg9UuY3Fa2nEWH9) - Next up we continued on to a real highlight of our seafood tour, a legendary seafood restaurant about a 20 minute drive outside of the city. This place is so picturesque, on the beach, you choose your fresh catch of the day which is directly from the sea, they cook it on spot and you can eat it on the beach. Total price - 1660 EGP ($32.82) Abo Salah (https://maps.app.goo.gl/3ktrHjWocfCZ1qXRA) - Finally, Abanoub took me to his local favorite spot of Egyptian seafood street sandwiches. We had fried shrimp and a fried squid sandwich, which were quite similar to poโ€™ boys and really tasty. Total price - 160 EGP ($3.16) TOTAL PRICE - Our total price for everything we ate this entire day of Egyptian seafood came to 3,515 EGP ($69.50). It's amazing the value and quality of seafood you can eat in Egypt for the price! It was another outstanding day of Egyptian food, mainly seafood in Alexandria, Egypt!

Tahini is the best dip for everything Egyptian, I donno if you noticed, but not all Tahini are created equal, Tahini as a side of Meat is a bit thicker than the Tahini when it is a side of Fish, so even though itโ€™s the same dipping sauce, it still varies based on the meal.

That one Alexandrian asking how you didn't have seafood in Alexandria in the last video is happy now.
