Il Pennello Maadi Cairo – A place that is fun friendly

""Il Pennello Maadi" in Cairo is an Italian restaurant where you can also paint clay mugs and other shapes. I love their bruschetta and pasta options..."

I highly recommend Il Pennello Maadi for families, small social events and for those who like to communicate in many forms; either by talking or bonding over colors.

Il Penello is an open spot surrounded by trees, and if you have a pet friend don’t leave them home, because they are also pet-friendly. The uniqueness of this place comes from the clay! When you arrive there, you get the chance to pick any sort of shape, choose four colors (solid or mixed up) and start painting your own item. Then you leave it for a week and collect it when it’s done being made into a masterpiece.

If what I have said so far did not get you hooked, their very good grip of the Italian cuisine definitely will do the deed. From the well prepared bruschetta to the irresistible pasta options, you will dive into your dish till it is empty.

Convenience is a feeling that everyone looks for in any place, but how about a place that values your time in comfort and good energy?
