TUCKED AWAY
BURGER CASTLE Faris Alyahya
I tried Burger Castle twice, once when they opened and again recently and times are a-changin. They’re much better. Thank you for including pickles, Burger Castle. Thank you very much. Your burgers are very much worth it. I like you. Let’s be friends. But wait. I’m not done yet.
Along the many options of chili cheese fries, chicken wings, quesadillas and hot dogs I noticed a new sandwich that you were promoting called the Zinger Burger, which turned out to be excellent! And addictive. A spicy fried chicken sandwich on a soft bun is just beautiful. I’m a big fan. You will see me again Burger Castle. Tally-ho~

After a recommendation from a friend, we decided to try out Bakerella, a local do-everything baker that makes everything from cupcakes to cheesecake and banoffee pies. Feeling a little blue after the brilliant weather of winter went away, we decided to go for the chocolate trifle, because what better pick me up is there than layers
of chocolate and cream? And we liked it! The size is perfect for parties and it’s just about right to satisfy our cravings without eating too much. This jury concurs this trial in a good mood. Price: 7 per cup of trifle (12 cups minimum order) Delivery: Pick up for free, delivery SR 30-60 according to area. Rating: 4 bakerella_delights
Bialah Making Change in Riyadh Food Scene
A new restaurant focusing on modernized Saudi food has opened its first branch on Tahlia Street. Opposite Mira Hotel, Bialah is already making waves with their locally inspired décor and pretty cool name. We at DR are pretty excited to visit.
BATTLE OF THE BURRITOS: CHIPOTLE TO COMPETE WITH FIREGRILL SOON?
We’re diehard fans of Firegrill, especially after comparing it with the Chipotle we tried in London… But we won’t lie, we’re getting pretty curious about the new Chipotle branch opening in Exit 8. This calls for a new roundup, we think!
