A tree trunk? More like several tree trunks, with their leaves surrounding you all around. The owner of this spot is a tree lover and a nature enthusiast -- to such an extent that he built the place around the existing trees, without compromising a single branch or leaf.
So don’t be astonished when you find a tree branch interfering with your table, a flying parrot or a couple of birds free-flying above your head and harmlessly enjoying the warm energy --- it’s their home and you are the guest.
A gypsy look and feel are what you will notice the moment you set your foot into Tree Trunk. The interior of this place is an actual home, which explains the high ceiling and the tiny balcony that has only three tables overlooking one of the oldest streets in Cairo. The comfiness and the trustworthy energy that is constantly filled with love and recharged with sunrays will make you feel obliged to keep this specific spot on top of your head to take whoever you love on a trip to this free-spirited spot.
