Where We Are Going Today: ‘Your Burger’ restaurant at AlManshiyah Plaza in AlUla

  • Your Burger also offers a selection of creative appetizers

When in AlUla, make sure to stop by Your Burger, a local joint that guarantees a satisfying experience. With its success and multiple locations in Madinah, Your Burger has become a must-try destination in AlUla. Recently opened at AlManshiyah Plaza, this eatery has taken the city by storm.

Indulge in their mouth watering brisket burgers, ranging from SR19 ($5) for a classic burger to SR44 for the wagyu burger. Each bite is a divine fusion of flavors, with tender brisket that melts in your mouth. The freshly cut French fries served alongside are perfect, and their special sauce complements the brisket deliciously.

To elevate the experience, the brisket is delicately drizzled with honey, creating a harmonious blend of sweetness and smoke. The exceptional quality of their burgers lies in the use of angus meat, expertly smoked for at least 12 hours and served in specially crafted burger buns.

Your Burger also offers a selection of creative appetizers. Try their crispy deep-fried brisket balls topped generously with a unique sauce. Alternatively, indulge in their honey BBQ delight, featuring crispy chicken dipped in honey and paired with delectable BBQ sauce, served alongside a refreshing ranch dressing. Other dishes also feature chicken, shrimp and all manner of other options.

For those seeking a memorable main course, the entrecote steak is a must-try, grilled to perfection in the restaurant’s signature tarragon basil sauce. Then there is the 12-hour smoked ribs, served with a coleslaw salad and a side of fries.

Sea food enthusiasts will find it hard to resist the temptations of the shrimp roll sandwich, expertly crafted and accompanied by Your Burger’s special sauce. Chicken lovers are well-catered to as Your Burger offers a variety of options, including tender grilled chicken, crispy chicken, crispy chicken filet, coleslaw crispy chicken, and crispy chicken with maple sriracha.

For those on the go, Your Burger even provides a DIY kit. Priced at SR102, the kit includes mixed beef and chicken patties, along with fresh ingredients like lettuce, jalapenos, onions, tomatoes, and a selection of mouthwatering sauces.

Due to overwhelming demand, Your Burger has announced the upcoming opening of its second branch in AlUla. For more details and updates, visit @your_burger on Instagram.

 


Where We Are Going Today: Cocina La Cantina

Where We Are Going Today: Cocina La Cantina

Mexican restaurant Cocina La Cantina — on Sari Road in Jeddah’s Al-Zahra district — offers a menu focused on traditional flavors with contemporary twists.

I started with three salads, including maiz del fuego and verde brasa. The charred corn and kale were well prepared, and the dressings reflected traditional Mexican flavors.

The seafood dishes — lamica roja and aguachile de camaron — were fresh and retained their natural texture and taste. Guacamole served with crispy plantain provided a simple balance to the spiced dishes. 

The tostadas, especially the salmon and smoked crab versions, were well executed, with each ingredient distinct and flavors authentic. The menu offers a variety of options.

I also tried the birria quesadilla, featuring slow-cooked beef with Oaxacan-style cheese in a blue corn tortilla, and the ribotes — charred corn ribs topped with cotija, lime, tajín, and smoky morita mayo. Totopos with guacamole and pico de gallo completed my round of starters. 

For mains, I had pollo enmolado, with 48-hour marinated chicken in chintextle mole served with XO rice; pipian del mar, featuring salmon with molokhia pipian and macha oil; and carne asada suprema, a 24-hour marinated Wagyu 5+ striploin with guacamole and salsa verde.

The proteins were fresh and cooked to order, with sauces and marinades complementing the dishes as described.

The menu uses Mexican-style names but includes clear descriptions, and the staff are knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. For more information, visit @lacantina.ksa.
