Dining
Grains such as wheat or rice and meats (such as lamb) constitute the bulk of Saudi cuisine--pork is normally not served in the country, as its consumption is forbidden by Islam. Yoghurt is often used in local cooking, and dates constitute a dessert staple. There is a lot of variation within the province of Tabuk, with coastal cuisine being known especially for "Al-Sayyadiah"--a signature local fish and rice dish served with spices. Restaurants often feature separate seating areas for families and single diners.
