Bubble tea is a Taiwanese tea-based drink invented by a tea vendor in Taichung, Taiwan in the early 1980s. The drink was originally called “boba” after the large tapioca balls (or “boba”) found at the bottom of the cup that was said to resemble bubbles or pearls; thus boba became bubble tea.

Hola Tacos is the best Mexican restaurant in Marassi Ally & Marina – Sahel (Egypt’s North Coast). They offer a diverse menu, with tacos, burritos, and nachos as well as salads and desserts. Their food is fresh and tastes amazing! The staff are knowledgeable about what they are serving you; they will also be happy to recommend something new if you don’t know what to order.
The beef burrito bowl is delicious: it has beans, rice, guacamole sauce, and sour cream on top of your choice of meat (I chose chicken). You can also add extra toppings like corn or black beans for an extra fee which I recommend doing because these additions make your dish even more delicious!
We tried two different types of tacos – a vegetarian option with avocado slices placed inside flour tortillas along with shredded lettuce leaves instead of lettuce being used as garnish; another option included grilled chicken pieces topped off with melted cheese over corn tortilla shell served alongside fresh tomato salsa sauce drizzled onto base plate underneath all ingredients mentioned above.”

The staff at Chilli’s Grill are very friendly so don’t hesitate to ask them any questions or ask them for recommendations when ordering your meal

19. Très Bon (Marassi)
Très Bon is a good Italian restaurant in Marassi Sidi Abd El Rahman. The outdoor seating is nice, and the staff are polite.
The food is average: the salads were nice and fresh, but the pasta dishes were nothing special.

20. Clams and Claws – Seafood restaurant – ( Marassi Marina)
Clams and Claws is a seafood restaurant located in Marassi Marina, which offers a wide variety of dishes including shrimp, fish & chips, or calamari along with other delicious food options. It’s great for families as well as couples who want to eat out at night. The dynamite shrimp is nice but the portion is not much; however, you can always order more if needed!
The service was excellent with quick delivery of our orders even though there was a crowd waiting outside for their tables inside the restaurant which made us feel like we were being rushed out after we finished eating which wasn’t very pleasant since we had paid for our meals already so why would anyone want them to go away quickly?
However, despite this small flaw, I would still recommend going here because they have amazing shrimp with clams and claws sauce & tasty chicken and shrimp pasta! The garlic salmon pasta was also very good too. perfect food & very good service.
