Cafés
Western-style restaurants are a foreign import to Oman, while cafés enjoy a much higher popularity among locals and often make for dining experiences no less tantalising. Shwarma is, perhaps, the most popular local eat, and is made with roasted beef or chicken wrapped in bread with salad and vegetables. Grilled meats (or 'kebabs') are another local speciality, often served with flatbread and hummus. Another dish typical of the area is Biryani which often simply means chicken leg with rice and spices. Cafés normally offer a variety of fresh juices to go with a meal, along with coffee ('gahwa') spiced with cardamom and cloves.
