CRUST AND CRUMBS
ALMAWAYED BOUFEYAH
A samooli shakshooka sandwich is one of our favorite things on the planet, so we’re a bit biased on this particular hole in the wall. Almawayed has kibdah sandwiches too, which you’ll notice featured on our favorite things about Riyadh. Bilafiyah.
BEST IN & OUT
SAMAKIYIAT The only place our fish-phobic food editor would accept seafood from, Samakiyiat has won a place in our hearts for getting her to eat the stuff. We loved the hamour, and the jumbo shrimp, as well as the salmon steak with Mexican salsa. You choose’em fresh off the display and they’re cooked for you. Good idea eh?

We’re still dreaming of that lemon meringue pie, we swear. There’s just something about it that inspires our cravings. Plus, the owner of the business was one of the most pleasant to work with.
BEST TUCKED AWAY:
BAB ALYEMEN We have yet to find a place that serves traditional food as well as Bab Alyemen. With a decent ambiance and killer food, it makes up for the slow service they seem to be cursed with. DR Picks: Bint Alsahan, mgalgal, and their mlooh. Yum. Yummmm.
FAVORITE MORNING COFFEE:
WHITE FOAM
Nice folks, nice coffee; they’ve been featured regularly on our snapchat this year. Thank you for staving off our morning depression, White Foam. SIDE NOTE: We’re looking for our next regular café soonish. Anyone looking to step in the role and save us?
