Two restaurants designed by MF & Associates have been recognized in the prestigious MENA's 50 Best Restaurants 2025 awards: Sachi Heliopolis and Sachi Park St. Sachi Heliopolis, located in Cairo's Korba district, secured the 27th spot. Established in 2014 by Ayman Baky, this flagship venue offers elevated Mediterranean classics in an intimate setting, making it a cornerstone of Cairo’s dining scene. Sachi Park St., situated in Giza’s Sheikh Zayed area, earned the 40th spot. This stylish sibling to the original Sachi features a double-height ceiling with mezzanine seating, a large outdoor bar, and a show kitchen. The menu, enhanced by consultant chef Reif Othman, introduces inventive dishes that blend occidental flavors with Sachi's core pillars of sharing, family, and comfort. These accolades highlight the importance of thoughtful design in creating exceptional culinary experiences.
At MF and Associates, we pride ourselves on telling stories through design, and the newly opened Sachi at Marassi Marina is no exception. Partnering with Sachi’s visionary team, Mohamed Fares led our efforts to craft a space that resonates with the marina’s natural beauty. Inspired by the rhythm of the sea, we incorporated nautical elements and organic textures to create an environment that reflects the vibrant coastal lifestyle. This project is a testament to our belief that great design goes beyond aesthetics—it builds experiences, tells stories, and connects people to their surroundings.
