I need help. Where can I find fresh mozarella in either Heliopolis or Zamalek ? The prepackaged stuff in Metro won't do, I need the real deal, fresh, and ideally would love to find some bocconchini.
Thanks in advance & have a great day.

The only place I've seen posted for a nice selection of cheeses is here, but I've not used them and I don't know if they have what you are looking for.

PETRO of Mohandessin, off Wadi el nile St. from Bon Appetit turn right into the little road.

Hi and thanks for your replies. Yes I also use Gourmet Egypt but they only have mozarella with a use by date which is the 22nd of October and I really need fresh fresh.
There is also another place for luxury foods, called Voila. They have lot's of nice things including Haagen-Dazs icecream. Unfortunately, a bit like Gourmet Egypt, they don't always have their advertized items available. I called yesterday to order icecream and cheese and they didn't have any of the things I wanted in stock. A plus, however, is they deliver within 90 minutes.
Here is the number if anyone is interested: 19853

for anyone (like me!) who is interested in Voila foods.
*Though wow, after looking through the catalog, they are VERY expensive! Not for your average shopper unless they have a lot of money to spare. Though I might be tempted by that Hagen Daz. Posts: 1283 | From: Cairo | Registered: Feb 2006

CF, you are in luck, I have the Viola catalogue right here and they have foie gras. Yes, this place is expensive ! Rougie Bloc De Foie Gras D'ole is LE270 for 210gms. Or maybe the Foie Gras De Canard for LE440.
For caviar lovers, Beluga is a mere LE11,000 for 250gms. Yikes !
I am off to Oscar to try and find my mozarella.
