Arabic food comes from a rich history and tradition, making it one of the most famous cuisines around the world today. Arabic food is a variety of traditional dishes coming from various areas in the Middle East. Traditionally, Arabic cuisine relied mainly on local ingredients available along the Arabian Peninsula such as wheat, dates, rice, barley and meat, making their meals a healthy choice.

One of the most essential parts of Arabic food is the concept of generosity, as well as hospitality. Food is shared and enjoyed by the whole family and friends. Today, it is easy to enjoy authentic and delicious Arabic dishes anytime and anywhere.
