The cheapest way for a group to eat in Marsa Matrouh is to shop en masse at the local market. Alexandria St. runneth over with grocery stores, vegetable stands, fruit markets, and bakeries. A number of inexpensive restaurants vie for customers.
Alexandria Tourist Restaurant (tel. 93 23 15), on the east side of Alexandria St., 2 blocks south of the Corniche. One of the best budget meals in town. Eat a full fish meal for LEI 0 beneath the benevolent smile of Col. Q. Open daily noon-midnight.
Panayatis Greek Restaurant (tel. 93 42 74), across the street from Alexandria Tourist Restaurant. Nothing particularly Greek about the food here (generous meal LE15). Serves Stella (LE3.85). Open daily lOam-midnight.
