Sanbok Restaurant - Al Khobar

It's Ramadan and most of business establishments are closed during the day. It is only late at night around 9 PM, where most establishments open, so you can dine at restaurants on starting this hour. We are again looking for an interesting place to dine in. We were driving along the Corniche Road in Al Khobar when we decided to try this restaurant called Sanbok.

Entrance

Sanbok is a seafood restaurant that also offers Asian, Indian, and International dishes.  They have a mini market with fresh catch.  You can buy it by the kilo and have it cooked by their chef.

Lobsters, Shrimps, Oysters

Fish catch for the day

Right now we wanted to try the lobster so we ordered that together with tom yum kung and sweet & sour meat balls.

Sweet & Sour Meat Balls

Fried Rice

Complimentary Arabic Bread (Kuboos)

Complimentary Vimto & Pomegranate Cocktail

Everything was delicious.  The lobster was cooked perfectly and we finished it in a flash.  By the way, they have an al-fresco dining overlooking the sea.  But since the heat outside is still at a high, we opted to dine inside.
