Destination Jeddah

Al-Saaj is situated on the hectic Amir Mut'eb Street in Al-Safaa district. The area is known for fast foods and is a popular drive-in for busy Arabs. While most of the time it is the 'hungry' who stop by, sometimes people even drive in to pray the compulsory daily prayers in congregation(in the open air).

Al-Saaj serves one of the best Arabic fast foods around, their shawarma being my favorite: roasted and shaved chicken rolled in tortillas along with onions and diced tomatoes. The shawarma is served in a tray of crisp french-fries, pickled cucumber, fresh sliced cucumber and a dip of yoghurt and chipotle chilli.yum! The tortilla rolls are briefly flattened on a hot plate to give it its crisp.

Although the restaurant provides spacious man-only seating on the ground-floor as well as family section on the first floor, I am more accustomed to having the take away in our car!

Happy eating!
