This Diner is Bringing Sauce From Sidelines to Centre in New Cairo
This Diner is Bringing Sauce From Sidelines to Centre in New Cairo
Weird and wacky combinations welcome: Sauce provides a safe space for those who daydream about putting honey sriracha on a cheeseburger or combining truffle mayo with chicken katsu.
Sauce, as a key component of a meal, honestly never gets the recognition it deserves. It's branded as a side and never the main event, yet, in reality it's really the sauce that elevates the meal. New Cairo's Sauce Diner is giving sauce the spotlight it deserves, offering a new American-Asian fusion menu and an extensive selection of sauces to satisfy all cravings and tastes… and a judgement-free environment.
Expanding from its first branch in Dubai, Sauce Diner came to spice things up in Cairo in 2022, opening at The Drive in New Cairo. The Dubai branch is inspired by the classic 50s American diner, serving diner staples such as burgers, pancakes, hotdogs and waffles with a particular emphasis on the make-or-break power of different sauces.
While the New Cairo location stays loyal to this tried-and-true aesthetic, Sauce Egypt owner Farida Nasser tells SceneEats that they have recently revamped their menu. 'Our menu now combines the typical American diner menu staples we all know and love with an Asian fusion twist.' A combination which perhaps seems a bit out-there at first, but actually makes perfect sense when you think about it. Reconciling rich, Asian umami flavours and spices with hearty American classics, Sauce's New Cairo branch enhances the classic, and kind of overdone, diner experience.
Each menu item is customisable with an extensive list of sauces which incorporates this American-Asian fusion twist: weird and wacky combinations are welcomed wholeheartedly. Sauce provides a safe space for those who daydream about putting honey sriracha on a cheeseburger or combining truffle mayo with chicken katsu. 'The new Asian-fusion menu truly offers an eruption of flavours, bringing together both burger lovers and those who constantly crave something spicy or smoky,' Nasser says.
Yaki-soba noodles can be topped with American style fried chicken, cheeseburgers and sriracha make for a surprisingly harmonious combination, ramen can be paired with ranch. Ultimately, Sauce brings flavours, textures and people together, whether they're the kind who can't pick between a burger or a ramen, or knows exactly what culinary innovations they want to mix up next.

Rami Malek's "Amateur" Sets Digital and Blu-ray Release Dates
Yara Sameh Egyptian-American Rami Malek's 20th Century thriller movie "Amateur," one of the year's best action thrillers, is all set to land on digital release later this month. Based on the 1981 novel of the same name by Robert Littell, it was adapted by Ken Nolan. British novelist and popular historian James Hawes is directing the movie from a script by Gary Spinelli. Hutch Parker and Dan Wilson are producing, with Malek executive producing. "Amateur" follows a CIA cryptographer who, after his wife is tragically killed in a London terrorist attack, demands his bosses go after them. When it becomes clear they won't act due to conflicting internal priorities, he blackmails the agency into training him and letting him go after them himself. The movie's official synopsis reads: 'Charlie Heller (Rami Malek) is a brilliant, but deeply introverted decoder for the CIA working out of a basement office at headquarters in Langley whose life is turned upside down when his wife is killed in a London terrorist attack. When his supervisors refuse to take action, he takes matters into his own hands, embarking on a dangerous trek across the globe to track down those responsible, his intelligence serving as the ultimate weapon for eluding his pursuers and achieving his revenge.' The movie has generated plenty of buzz during the fall festival season. Bleecker Street has acquired U.S. rights. "The Amateur" boasts an all-star cast that includes Rachel Brosnahan, Caitríona Balfe, Jon Bernthal, Michael Stuhlbarg, Holt McCallany, Julianne Nicholson, Adrian Martinez, Danny Sapani, and Laurence Fishburne. Release back in April, the movie racked up solid numbers at the box office. Particularly in this modern era of franchises and comic book movies. Against a budget of around $60 million, Malek's action outing grossed $95.8 million worldwide, making the movie a financial success. "The Amateur" is set to get a digital release next week on June 10, with the action thriller then landing on 4K UHD and Blu-ray a little later on July 8. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan

Saudi Rock Band Sound of Ruby Drop New EP ‘Jaxx Invasion'
Saudi Arabia's pioneering rock band just dropped a live record, with over 30 new tracks on the way. May 30, 2025 Sound of Ruby, one of Saudi Arabia's first and longest-running rock bands, have just released 'Jaxx Invasion', their first official live album, and are currently working on a four-LP project featuring over 30 new tracks. This new phase follows a string of recent releases - 'Rock Puffs' in 2022 and 'Betamax' in 2024 - which marked their return after a long hiatus. Now, the band is entering one of its most active and creative periods yet. Formed in the Eastern Province in the 1990s by vocalist and composer Mohammad Al Hajjaj, Sound of Ruby helped shape Saudi Arabia's underground rock scene. Despite lineup changes over the years, the group has stayed true to its raw, DIY ethos. Guitarist Nader Al Fassam and producer/multi-instrumentalist Kamal Khalil have long been part of the band's core, and drummer Faris Al-Shawaf recently joined, continuing the legacy of his brother, Talal. Blending punk, noise, and local influences, Sound of Ruby's music draws from American acts like Black Flag and The Butthole Surfers, while also referencing Saudi folk artists like Fahad Bin Saeed and Bashir Shannan. Beyond the music, the band played a key role in building Saudi's alternative scene. In the 2000s, Hajjaj and Khalil launched S.A. Metal, one of the country's first online forums for heavy music, and organized underground gigs that laid the groundwork for future scenes.
