After lunch at Al Saraya, we had the rest of the day free. I asked our guide (who was from Luxor) where to go for kunefe. He said there was a tea house somewhere that needed a drive to and they made it fresh, but unfortunately nowhere really in town. He then took us to this bakery just down the road as a close option.
It was full of sweet pastries that seem typical for the Middle East and Mediterranean including something that looked like kunefe, but wasn't really. Nonetheless with prices silly low (like 50-100EGP/kg or something), I walked out with so much and so many varieties that we had to give most of it to our hostel staff as we'd never finish it.
Worth a visit for sweets for the road.
