If you ask me what makes my Friday better? I would say FOOD. Lol. Yes ? Tell me what makes your weekend better?
Is it food?
Is it family time?
Is it sleeping?
Is it no alarm?
Tell me, if food makes your weekend better.
So this Friday I went for lunch at lokma. Lokma is one of the best Turkish restaurants in Riyadh, located in boulevard. It’s a cute and pretty place with a lot of food options.
From yummy appetizers to main courses to a lot of drinks and my favorite, guess what, desserts. Yes ? I had a hard time deciding what to order and what not. Finally decided to pick few dishes we never tried before.
So we ordered Santa Fe salad, what an exotic salad name ? yeah I know. Lol. It was too good.

And My little one wanted to eat fries, so here we go 🙂 Cheesy loaded fries for the kids,

And moving on to main course, we ordered,
CHICKEN WRAPS
FUSILLI PESTO PASTA
BEYTI KEBABS
LAMB CHOPS
I am not a big fan of chops but these lamb chops were a delight. Loved the pasta, the kababs and the chicken wraps. Too good and super delicious. Spice level is so good that even kids would like it.
For drinks, we ordered fresh orange juice, (something I can drink for the rest of my life) , strawberry lemonade and virgin mojito.

And now lets talk about my favorite part, haha. Desserts! Baklawa and Chocolate cake were a treat, even my husband loved them when he is not into desserts. ?

It’s a must visit restaurant if you wana try authentic Turkish food. Loved the ambience, the food, the service. Definitely visiting again for sure.
