ALKHOBAR: With the lingering scent of freshly fried fish and the enticing aroma of brewed coffee, Alkhobar welcomed its first Seafood Festival recently, just a short walk from the corniche. A wide range of seafood is available to buy from local eateries, from fish tacos and poke bowls to traditional rice dishes and soups. The festival, which features about 30 booths, is not just about food, but also offers educational and recreational activities. “This festival represents a valuable opportunity to explore various flavors from around the world, with the participation of a selection of seafood restaurants. We have participated at another local festival before, but this is the first Seafood Festival outside in the fresh air, and honestly, I’m shocked at the crowd and how popular it is.
