My first shisha in Saudi Arabia: Civia Cafe (20. September 2022)
After having spent almost two weeks in Saudi Arabia, and never having had a shisha, it was about time to try a shisha. The Civia Cafe is a nice little place which offers shisha which you can smoke while sitting outside. I went for the “Double Apple Shisha” which was quite lovely. It was smooth to smoke and didn’t really irritate your throat.
The place is relatively modern with live music (and when there is no live music, there is regular music). The service is generally friendly and swift – only when it came to the switching of the charcoal, it took them a bit to do so. All in all, the Civia Cafe is a nice place to sit down, relax, and enjoy a shisha.

I started the blog in October 2009, while living in Milan which I definitely consider to be one of the food capitals of the world. I was in touch with food since my early childhood (as my father is a former chef). Whenever I can, I travel the world to discover new places, to meet people but mostly to try local dishes and to find hidden gems! If you know a place worth going, please drop a line to: info@thediningexperience.org.
