It is not easy to go out at night when there is a curfew from midnight to six a clock in the morning. If you are planing to go out these days in Cairo you have to go early. Usually nightlife in Cairo starts after midnight. But in revolutionary times there is no normality in the nightlife.
My Egyptian friends and I met at 7:00 PM to go out, which is so early in Egypt.

This was my second time at Tamarai. First visit was October last year.
Located in Nile City Towers’ North Tower, Tamarai brings a splash of elegance to the city. In summertime there is a festive outdoor patio, with an elaborate bar and ample room for dancing. The balcony shows off a captivating view of the Nile, and although the restaurant is only on the third floor, it gives the impression of being elevated high above the city lights below. The winter lounge proved that for all the glitz and glamour that precede its reputation, Tamarai can be equally satisfying as a low-key place to mingle.
The staff is friendly and efficient, yet by no means overly attentive. As one would expect, prices are on the high end, reservations are generally a must, and a substantial minimum charge of 250LE applies on weekends.
