Lebanese Food Fiesta at Crowne Plaza Salalah

Crowne Plaza Salalah

During the Khareef season, Salalah witnesses a lot of tourists from various parts of the world, particularly from the Middle East. Lebanese food is the preferred food by the locals and Arab travelers. To provide delicious Lebanese food to the locals and tourists in Salalah, Crowne Plaza Resort is having a two week long Lebanese Food Festival, thus making it a place not to miss this Khareef. This fiesta will continue till 27th August 2016 (starting from 14th August), each evening from 7 pm to 11 pm for just OMR 13 net per person.

Dolphin Beach Restaurant at Crowne Plaza Salalah

Dolphin Beach Restaurant is the best beach front dining venue in Salalah. This open air restaurant is just few meters away from the shore of the Amazing Indian Ocean. Even from the dining area, one can have a view of the white sand and the waves approaching the shore.

Since there is no such place in Salalah like Dolphin Beach Restaurant, this Lebanese food festival is a great success. When we were there, the restaurant was almost full with locals, Arab travelers and international tourists. Many of them are staying at Crowne Plaza Salalah.
