Half Moon Bay, located in Al Khobar, is not only renowned for its picturesque beaches and water sports but also for its culinary delights that reflect the rich Arabian heritage infused with modern gastronomy. The traditional cuisine of the region has been shaped by the trading history of the Arabian Peninsula, influenced by Indian, Persian, and African flavors, while seafood plays a prominent role due to the proximity to the Persian Gulf. Local dishes often feature flavorsome spices, rice, and a variety of meats, excluding pork due to Islamic dietary laws. In recent years, Al Khobar has seen a boom in international and gourmet dining experiences, catering to its diverse, cosmopolitan population and international visitors.
