It does seem that there has been an influx of stores specialising in serving Middle Eastern fare that had opened in recent times around the Jurong East neighbourhood — one of such establishments would be that of Streets of Cairo that is situated within the BK Eating House coffeeshop within the Blk 134 Jurong Gateway Road. Streets of Cairo should be a stall that is relatively easy to spot; these folks are located next to the tray return area of the coffeeshop and sport a black signboard that also doubles up as a menu board that lists all of the items that are available to be ordered at the stall. Just like most other stalls within coffeeshops specialising in Middle Eastern fare around the island, Streets of Cairo serves up mainly chicken and beef kebabs alongside multiple options of carbs / starches that includes the likes of baked rice, Sharwarma, Fries, Pide, Rice — just to mention a few. There is also Mandi Rice being served at Streets of Cairo, while there is Kunafa and boxes of desserts available for those whom are looking for desserts.

We went with the Fries Chicken which would be typically the Fries with Chicken Kebab that is served at other similar stalls elsewhere. The Fries Chicken at Streets of Cairo comes with the usual suspects that includes fries and chicken kebab alongside red onions, purple cabbage and leafy greens with a drizzling of mayonnaise and chili. Digging straight into the dish, we did find that the chicken kebab is being done pretty well here; the chicken kebab definitely came with meat that is tender and sufficiently moist — what we found to be most enjoyable here was the skin of the chicken that seems to be roasted and carrying a slight hint of smokiness alongside with it. The fries were also executed pretty well here being all crisp without being heavily seasoned; the addition of the sauces being sufficient to provide ample flavours to the entire dish — we also liked how the fries aren’t particularly greasy and did not reek of any undesirable hint of overused oil as well. The inclusion of the various greens do add a refreshing crunch with the zing from the red onions helping to reset the tastebuds as well.
