I had a very late introduction to Coffee, but I have made up for lost time and enjoy the current coffee scene that is taking over Saudi Arabia. Coffee is a great way to unwind after a long day at work, fun with friends or a drink that can give you that much needed push […]

I have only tried Koshari and Hawawshi before and my exposure to Egyptian cuisine was limited. I absolutely love Koshari for it’s simplicity and how nutritious it can be and here at @heliopolis_1 we were in for an absolute feast. We were invited by @heliopolis_1 thanks to @nomanaksamia and together with @foodingmyselfaround and @shareeka23 we…

I have had @pantryksa on my list of restaurants to visit and today felt like the right day, considering it’s been two years since @shareeka23 and I got married. With that in mind, we headed there for lunch. Parking is a bit hard to find with a cafe right next door which is also quite…

In my search for a good seafood restaurant in Khobar, I came across @como_rest that was highly rated on @googlemaps. @joys10dz wanted a venue for @elmaaug birthday dinner and this looked like that perfect place to host a party. Located opposite Gulf Building in Khobar Corniche, this place has separate dining sections for Singles &…

It was thanks to @nomanaksamia that we were invited to review @vanilleksa in the city of Al Khobar and joining us was @thefoodiemama.rin and @foodingmyselfaround. It had been a few months since I last saw them, no thanks to Covid-19. We were greeted by the Head Chef and author of his own book ‘The Islander…

Covid-19 has instilled a sense of fear and ‘The Villaggio’ was practically empty with a handful of people going about their business. We decided to try out ‘Le Cafe’s Wallflower’ for breakfast since this place was one of the few that had opened up. The ambience is welcoming and the design subtle and we quickly…

Khobar was in dire need of a food destination like @ajdanwalk and ever since they opened, the crowds haven’t relented. There isn’t a time of day when this place isn’t crowded and that is thanks to the host of restaurants that opened up here. ‘Buffalo Wild Wings’ @bwwingsksa opened up here a little while ago…

If it hadn’t been for @foodingmyselfaround I would have totally missed out on authentic Hyderabadi food within walking distance of my flat. ‘Shimla Hayider Restaurant’ first opened over 30 years ago and changed locations over 9 years ago to Makkah street, Thoqbah. We headed over for lunch soon after noon prayers since we were told…

‘PFChangs’ in Al Khobar was a long time coming and they finally opened up to the public along with the @thecheesecakefactoryme @ksanandos and a host of other restaurants in the new Ajdan Walk in Khobar corniche. It also happened to be the day that I finally met up with fellow food blogger @foodingmyselfaround for dinner.…

Though @bawabtdimashk had been operating in Khobar for quite some time, this was going to be my first visit to the restaurant. ‘Dimashq’ is the arabic name for Damascus and Syrian cuisine happens to be one my culinary favourites. We ordered the ‘Hummus with Meat’ (SR. 27), ‘Kofta with Cheese’ (SR. 30), ‘Kebab with Blueberry’…
