What is the food like at all-inclusive hotels in Egypt — what's good and what to avoid?

At an Italian restaurant, the caprese, mushroom salad, seafood soup, and minestrone were all enjoyable. Tiramisu was a highlight. However, pepperoni pizza and lasagna were disappointing — skip them. The soup alone was worth the visit despite mediocre service.

Children can be very picky about food in Egypt — one child survived almost entirely on oranges, bread rolls, and sausage brought from home. Local pasta, even when undercooked, was refused despite being a favourite at home. It's worth packing familiar snacks for kids.

At the Sunny Beach resort complex, variety is greater because guests can dine across three hotels — if one restaurant disappoints, just move to another. Vegetables and fruits are more abundant there. Moreno resort has more herbs and greens in dishes, but fewer local Egyptian guests dining there.
