It’s been a while since we’ve had a gripping show and Gaslit is living up to expectations, as it reframes the Watergate scandal. Based on the first season of the podcast Slow Burn by Leon Neyfakh, the political thriller stars A-listers Julia Roberts and Sean Penn. The limited series sheds light on former US President Richard Nixon’s subordinates and the whistleblowers in the scandal that revealed multiple instances of power abuse from the administration and the cover-up that followed.

???? EAT THIS TONIGHT-

From Apple Strudel to laugen bread, this new German bakery will bring Berlin to you: Stadt Mille has recently opened its doors in Cairo Festival City, offering some German favorites. Don’t miss out on their laugens (which is a pretzel-like bread) that come in flavors such as cheese, bacon, sausage, and Hawaii. For more savory snacks, they also have croissants and pates. However, it’s their sweet selection that really shines, with an apfelstrudel, apple danish, cherry or lemon puffs, lime cake, honey cake, or English cake. You can also get non-ethanolic beer on tap from their counter.
