Cafe Liwan is a Saudi cafe house that only have branches at the moment in the Eastern Region (Dammam ,Khobar ,Dhahran ,Jubail ,Qatef ,Hasa)

Cafe Liwan - Dammam

Cafe Liwan is the only Cafe shop the serves Arabic Coffee in the ER

Personal Comments:

Finally a cafe shop that serves real coffee, they serve the Arabic coffee in our traditional pot but with three sizes.

so try this shop if you ever pass by the ER

On my last trip to Riyadh I saw an amazing concept restaurant as I was heading up Salahaddin at the junction of King Abdullah Road.

It appeared to be an immense 'Spit Roast' joint. Loads of carcasses being spit roasted in a row. Anyone know what it is called? It had a Spanish type name I think.

Definately going for a look-see-eat on my next visit.

It is on the right hand side as you head (north?) up Salahaddin towards the junction with King Abdullah.

Close to Sahara Mall which is on the North West corner of the junction.

Lots of roadworks in the vacinity at present so it's all u-turns followed by u-turns.

carbonated.brainiac · July 6th, 2010, 03:01 PM

dude... there is a chloting outlet CITY-MAX on kingabdulaziz road... its just beside it... or u can say opposite of salauddin mosque..!!!

ProudArabian · July 9th, 2010, 02:32 AM

^ salauddin mosque was so near my house when i use to live in Riyadh, i use to go to that mosque every friday, i use to live just behind the Fall-tamimi safeway shopping center.

There was another small Turkish resturant in the that area, forgot the name, but it was amazing! That whole area had amazing resturants even 10-15 years back, now it must have so many more new ones.

***Saudi guy*** · December 23rd, 2010, 06:03 PM

"Mama Norah" Riyadh's best restaurant (that what I heard), I can't believe this with all that popularity it has I Still can't find a single good picture for their food

jh1 · December 25th, 2010, 10:50 PM

Mama Norah is great !

flares · May 24th, 2011, 07:11 PM

Haven't tried Mama Noura yet but I know where it is now.

Had my first ever Cabrito (see earlier posts) tonight. Just a half roast chicken which was fine with rice with chilli in. Rice was too greasy but the chillis were good.

They also sell roast goat. Trad Saudi/arab food I guess. I had something similar when I visited this farm outside Riyadh last month. The goat slow cooked underground. Not a big fan of roast goat. Nowhere near as tasty as roast pig...oops sorry ;-)
