Delizioso: Riyadh is getting a Food Culture Festival next month

Get ready for a feast at the Food Culture Festival.

It is no secret that the Kingdom holds a deep appreciation for food.

From its own culinary delights to welcoming beloved international restaurants like Zuma, Isabel Mayfair Riyadh and more, the Saudi capital is almost leading the charge when it comes to serving good food and creating great memories.

If fine-dining is not your scene, fret not because the Saudi Culinary Commission has just announced the Food Culture Festival.

The all-things food celebration is set to take over our tastebuds as early as next week.

The festival is a collaboration between the Commission and the Quality of Life programme and will bring global flavors and cultures right here to your doorstep.
