My Top 10 Best Food In Saudi

Since I have limited photos in my portfolio due to photography regulations here in Saudi Arabia is very strict and really enforced by authority, I just have decided to share pictures of the top best food I ate here in Saudi Arabia so far. Enjoy!!!!!

1.Roasted Sheep Spare Ribs
For my first dish, Roasted Sheep Spare Ribs.Restaurant serve this dish is located in Batha, Riyadh,-a place where all Filipinos gathered every Friday for shopping and relaxation. Roasted sheep spare ribs cost only 12 riyals per plate serve with rice and lots of white onion and gerger leaves.This is very famous among Filipinos and other nationalities due to its affordable price. And for the longest time I was not able to eat here, the taste was very exactly the same as my first time, nothing has changed.
2.Cusina's Bulalo
Bulalo is something I don’t have a chance to eat very often, so when we ordered this dish- there was no holding us back. One of the best bulalo in town.Just wow!!!!!Serve in Batha's 2 year old Filipino Restaurant called Cusina Bar and Restaurant, 
3. Shawaya House's Chicken Shawaya
Because of its affordable price , only cost 7 riyals per plate serve with rice,the Shawaya House is by far the most popular shawaya restaurant in Saudi Arabia, you can see one in every corner of Saudi Arabia. They serve variety of dishes like pasta, chicken and lamb BBQ and some desert as well..
 4. Redan's Chicken Shawaya
Compared to Shawaya House, Redan's chicken shawaya excels in texture but no significant difference in terms of taste and price. 
 5. Paratha Bread in Tomato and Beans Sauce
A typical breakfast meal here in Saudi Arabia, you should and be prepared to eat this kind of dish no matter what. A bean sauce with curry and tomato with hard boiled egg plus paratha - perfect combination. Saudi is not complete if you will not able to taste this two Indian partners in crime. The taste that India emphasizes, the hot and sour .You can feel different kinds of spices combined perfectly to soothe your sense of taste.
 6. Roasted Chicken ala Saudia by Intercontinenal Riyadh
Saudi Arabia is the home of  roasted chicken. Different kinds and different flavors, name it, Saudi Arabia have it. The Roasted Chicken below tagged as Roasted Chicken ala Saudia served at Intercontinental Hotel, Riyadh seems to focus on the mild one which I like very very much.
 7.Orange and Strawberry Friuts with Orange-Caramel Cake
Really good quality caramel cake and really juicy sweet oranges and strawberry are the key to making this sweet treat.
8.Lugaw
Lugawan- a street food stall that produces seriously glorious rice porridge can be found in every corner of Batha, run by Filipino expat of course , this dish serve with toasted garlic, chilli flakes, pepper, calamansi and onion leeks.The flavor was pretty good as you can expect from most lugawan street food stalls in the Philippines – it was nice and with a good garlicky flavor.
 9.Indonesian Spring Roll
1 riyal per piece, this is a good shot ,Indonesian version of the spring roll, a version of which you can buy in some Asian bakala across the Kingdom. Instead of using meat as a filling , Indonesian Spring Roll uses  pansit bihon with selection of vegetables which i find very creative.
Bakala means small grocery store in arabic.
10.Deep Fried Quail Saute in Soysauce with Potatoes and Carrots
For my last dish,assure that you can't find anywhere in Saudi Arabia. the best quail recipe by my one and only roommate, the deep fried quails saute in soysauce with diced potato and carrots.The taste will remind you of province like ambiance wherein you and your family shared cooked good food in one table.
