Wingstop Jeddah is officially open for business
Opening its doors in the heart of Jeddah, at Cenomi Jeddah Park, Wingstop is known for its cooked-to-order wings, iconic flavours, and famous ranch, and you can now finally experience the viral venue for yourself. Proudly calling themselves the flavour experts, the menu at Wingstop focuses primarily on the namesake, and we’re of course talking about the incredible wings. How it works is, first, diners take their pick from the classic or boneless wings (maybe both if you’re feeling extra), crispy tenders, or a big flavour burger; the item of your choosing will then be hand-sauced and tossed into flavour, adding to the freshness that pre-sauced wings just don’t provide.

Returning to Obhur, Wakame Jeddah is now open. From gyoza to picture-perfect karaage and robatayaki, Wakame’s selection has enough going for it that you really will have to become a regular if you ever want to try it all, which we’d highly recommend doing. Coupled with its reasonable prices – which are all the more remarkable given this is Riyadh, Wakame has scored the winning formula of being a feel good Japanese place.
Wakame Jeddah, Prince Abdullah AlFiasal St, Obhur Al-Shamaliyah, Jeddah 23815, daily 4pm to midnight. @wakameksa
