JEDDAH, February 15. /"Dunyo" IA/. The first Uzbek restaurant "Al-Urz wa al-Kabab" ("Rice and Meat") opened in the city of Madina.

For residents of Saudi Arabia and guests from all over the world, the restaurant has become a point of acquaintance with Uzbek national cuisine, traditions, and the culture of the Uzbek people.
