Follow the crowds of students to Zamalek’s most popular shawarma stand. True to street food form, Saj & Shawerma keeps it simple with beef and chicken shawarma, fries, coleslaw and garlic dip sides. But what keeps the clientele faithful are the Syrian treats, from 'fries saj' and Syrian falafel to kobeba, a meatball of minced beef mixed with cracked wheat, onions and spices.
