Located in Jalawiyah, this tiny hole in the wall restaurant serving Indonesian food is easy to miss. ‘Restaurant Jakarta’ serves pre prepared items and closely resembles Indonesian Street food that you come across on TV.

It had been a year since I last visited @ajdanwalk and the idea was to visit PF Changs but with wait times exceeding 15 minutes, we decided to skip and visit ‘Buffalo Wild Wings’ instead. I had promised the wifey I would treat her to some ‘Dynamite Shrimps’ but it was easy to convince her…

I can finally say I’ve been to all of @sectionb_sa branches in the kingdom after visiting their @ithra ‘Downtown’ pop-up in Dhahran. This Saudi based Burger joint needs no introduction if you live in Jeddah or Riyadh but if you live in the Eastern Province, you have got to try it to understand why it’s…

I remember passing by @chickndipksa a few months ago at ‘Mall of Dhahran’ only to find it full to the brim and deciding that it wasn’t the best time to go for dine-in. Fast forward to Ramadan 2021, the restaurant had opened its doors for the day and with no one else in sight, we…
