To celebrate the end of our first week in the Kingdom a group of us went to the local Turkish Restaurant for dinner. The restaurant is a bit of an icon here. Delicious food and oh so cheap. It cost us $10 AUD each for starters/breads/mains/drinks and we did not eat all the food - so great value for money.
This is the Faisalia Mall - when we all pass out medication exam we are going to treat ourselves to high tea in the globe on top of the building.
Waiting outside the restaurant for prayer time to be over. The restaurants/shops close for every prayer. If you are inside the restaurant you can stay but they will not serve you anything.

Our fab waiter - he was just so funny- reminded me of Basel from Faulty Towers.

All the restaurants/cafes here have mens and family sections. Single ladies dine in the family section.

We ventured into a chocolate shop and were greeted by these lovely men who presented us with trays of chocolates and arabic sweets to try while in the shop.
