TL;DR
Travelers generally rate Sharm El Sheikh all-inclusive food highly — daily beef/turkey/lamb and fresh juices, often missing in Turkish resorts — though budget hotels may lack fresh vegetables and watermelon.
Overall, food and service in Egypt are simpler than in Turkey, though the hotel can still offer good value for its price.
At hotels in the Naama Bay area, the food selection is fairly modest, especially the lack of watermelon; mango and smoothies help, but nothing replaces cold watermelon after a meal.
Compared to Turkish resorts, Egyptian hotels do better with fresh-squeezed juices — Turkey largely lacks a fresh juice culture.
Comparing hotels of the same star rating, Egyptian resorts offer more variety: budget Turkish hotels rely mostly on vegetables (tomatoes, cucumbers), while Egyptian menus are richer.
At Fun Sun Active hotel, beef is served daily, turkey every other day, lamb and lula kebab almost every dinner, plus fresh juice at breakfast; for an even higher food level, consider Rixos.
