Finding attractions in Sharm is not an easy task. But there is one place that is really interesting and cultural in every sense of the word. I'm talking about Farsha Mountain Lounge cafe. This place is located in the Hadaba area, five minutes by taxi from the old market. From the name it is clear that it is located on a mountainside overlooking the sea. As the local explained to me, minced meat is a kind of rug, like a mat. Actually, these are usually found in many Egyptian cafes. During the day this place looks strange. On the slope, a bunch of rubbish beaten by life is collected, and among this everything, separate cabins are equipped in niches. But, with the onset of twilight, magic begins to act. Hundreds of lanterns and torches with live fire are lit, a high-quality lounge plays, the air is filled with the aromas of hookah and spiced teas. Each of the items collected here seems to come to life, and you are immersed in a real oriental fairy tale.
The owner or director of the establishment is a young guy with good taste and advanced outlook on life. Our company ordered a hookah, several aromatic teas - anise, mint, cinnamon, helba. They are brought in teapots, so that everyone can try. And sakhlyab is a local winter drink, similar to warm milk jelly with nuts and dried fruits. But they thicken it not with potato starch, but with powder from a local root crop. Lounging on pillows, you can enjoy the moonlit path, or you can look at the surroundings, finding even more interesting objects with each turn of your head. What is most important is democracy. Girls looking for great and pure love among the Egyptians come here in evening dresses, stilettos and in "combat" coloring. And next to us sat our company in jeans and krasovkas.
