I find it hard to believe that a restaurant like Albaik is yet to be mentioned on this
ingenious website. Then again, who doesn’t know Albaik? The fact that the
place is so popular that it needs no mentioning might have been the reason..

forgiven to think the building was just another part of
Leylaty’s Wedding Hall. There really isn’t a lot that..
