Crust Corner is a hidden gem among Riyadh’s gastronomical experiences. From filling salads to nourishing juices, this local joint is worth a try.
Who said healthy food should be boring? Colorful salads are Crust Corner’s specialty while its star dish, Mexican chicken, has the perfect balance of savory flavors of chicken and the creamy chipotle dressing. The texture plays a big role, bringing out the creaminess of the avocado, the crunchy lettuce, and the toasted grilled corn.
The Greek salad is also bursting with authentic flavors. The cool salad is a mix of romaine lettuce, salty feta cheese, addictive cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and tangy kalamata olives. The dish is then topped off with baked za’atar pita and served with a lemony Greek dressing.
Crust Corner’s herbed chicken bowl, which is served with fluffy white or brown rice, steamed broccoli and carrots, is a perfect light meal for those on the go. The chicken is grilled with a mixture of herbs and spices.
To satisfy the sweet tooth, the acai bowl is a great alternative to ice cream. Acai, the purple berries of the South American palm tree, is offered in two different flavors: granola and peanut butter. Each dessert has a topping of fresh fruits such as strawberry, blueberry and banana.
Meals can be paired with one of the outlet’s cold pressed juices. The green detox is a refreshing mixture of kale, celery, rocca, cucumber, green apples, lemon and ginger.
