I lived there for 5 years. IGR is awesome for schwarmas and sish tavouk (grilled chicken) also check out Coco's in Adlya (peach ice tea is the best thing on the menu). JJ's is always a good spot for a pint but if you are adventurous the Rugby Club was my favorite watering hole. It is a bit of a drive so unless you have a driver who isn't going to try and rip you off might be a bit too far to go.
