Offers one of the best food services here in Khobar. Launched a little over a year ago by longtime Saudi friends, Azza Al-Mubarak and Seeta Al-Dossari, the space is a culmination of the duo’s passion for hosting, great food and décor.
The brand creates bespoke events with well-rounded services and menus that are palatable for each client. They also provide takeout and are known for their box offer – you can create your own three-course meal by including your choice of salad, main and dessert.
PS: Their stuffed grape leaves and granola are the best in town and my personal favorites.
An exquisite European café, serving the finest coffee and flavorful pastries, cakes and sandwiches. It was envisioned by Saudi Mohanned Al Thukair, Noura Al Aquil, Ibrahim Al Yahya and Yousif Al Juaib as a social café and specialty coffee roastery, meant to satiate coffee lovers in the city.
The interiors feature a monochromatic palette, which is elevated with its matte-gold oval bar. The sumptuous Italian marble design reflects on the bold yet elegant feel of the space. It’s the perfect hangout spot for friends or for getting work done in a peaceful, inspired setting.
What should you try when you’re there? The cheesecake is a no-brainer.
Bayan was born in the Eastern Province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. She first picked up a camera in December 2010, and hasn’t looked back since. She began photography as a passion and published the photographs on Flickr and Facebook, which served as the launching platforms for Bayan Al Sadiq Photography.
She studied photography at various institutions in New York City to further hone her skill. There, she was roped in for a number of high-profile clients and then branched out to Paris. Her portfolio now boasts clients such as the Four Seasons Hotel, New York, Riyadh and Dubai, Plaza Athenee Hotel, Paris, Le Meurice Hotel, Paris, Baccarat, Paris, Fortnum & Mason, Dubai, and Ladurée, Paris and Dubai.
Bayan has received accolades for her work and was featured in a number of publications, including National Geographic. In August 2018, she conducted a photoshoot for the Wall Street Journal to document women driving in the city of Qassim at 12am, the moment the decades-long driving ban was lifted. She has been a contributing photographer for the journal since. She currently lives in Safwa, Saudi Arabia with her family. Follow Bayan @BayanAlSadiq on Instagram.
