Dining
Ta'if is not particularly known for its restaurant scene, but there are quite a few local eateries scattered throughout the town. Saudi cuisine primarily features grains like wheat and rice, along with meats such as chicken and lamb, as pork is generally avoided due to Islamic dietary laws. Yoghurt plays a key role in many local dishes, and dates are a common dessert staple. When visiting Ta'if, be sure to try the signature dish, 'seleeg,' a rice and milk pudding that embodies the region's culinary traditions.
