A cook fries Gambari-style potatoes (Batatis Gambari), a popular Egyptian street food cut, in a large wide pan over a gas flame at Qutta Restaurant on the Al-Darb Al-Ahmar tourist route in Cairo. A second worker assists nearby, with trays of fried potatoes and pickled eggplant (Betingan Mekhallel) visible in the background, ready for serving. The restaurant is a well-known baladi (local) eatery serving falafel and fried street food in a traditional Egyptian popular atmosphere.
