Hummus (right with cucumber and pomegranate)
Located along the ring road near Al Najada towards the Corniche is a lovely restaurant serving Arab food. I have been there 3 times, and I rave about their grilled lamb, beef and chicken chops which are tender, tasty with minmum garnishing allowing the flavour of the meat come out and the wonderful hummus which is a side dish.
The hummus dish is made from chickpeas and made into a paste. With a garnishing of pomegranate, some cucumber and raspberry topping, it is an excellent starter dish which goes well with their Naan type of bread and other pickles native to the region. Olives, green and black in colour, some gherkin and pickled cucumber complete the starters.

While people criticise Arab meals as being too meaty and salty, if eaten sparingly, the food is really tasty and it is another one off my bucket list of must trys.
