Jeddah during Ramadan
Maya Smadi
This board is dedicated to my place of birth, which I have only visited twice since we left in the 80’s. I visit it now in 2023 during Ramadan and with my husband who was born and raised there. Our trip is short (2.5 days) but will hopefully be very eventful.

Suhour (late night meal)

Grab some ‘ruz boukhari’ for suhour. It’s rice with chargrilled chicken and hot sauce, delicious! Make sure the chicken is chargrilled and not rotisserie.
