  • Which Nation Has THE BEST Al Baik? Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 or Dubai? 🇦🇪 In our last video we visited Dubai Mall to see if Al Baik is OVERHYPED or NOT? And we had a tonne of responses telling us that Al Baik Saudi Arabia, the OG, was much much better.
    So, we had to find out for ourselves....
    We flew to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia to visit (you guessed it) Al Baik to see if Al Baik Saudi is better than Al Baik Dubai.
    As in Dubai it was easy to see that Al Baik remains one of the busiest spots in Saudi Arabia, known for its cheap eats and Al Baik fried chicken.
    The only way to find out was to do an Al Baik full menu challenge, in this Al Baik food review, we tried the Al Baik fried chicken, Al Baik chicken brost, nuggets, big baik and any other cheap eats we could get our hands on.
    So, is Al Baik in UAE as good as the Al Baik in Riyadh Saudi Arabia? There's only one way to find, an Al Baik Taste Test
    Al Baik Menu Prices:
    Big Baik Burger (Spicy) - 13.50 SAR
    4 Piece Chicken - 17 SAR
    7 Piece Nuggets (Spicy) - 13.50 SAR
    Value Meal (Spicy) - 22 SAR
    2 Al Baik Garlic Sauce - 3 SAR
    Total - 68 SAR

    What makes the al-baik hyped because it's cheap and waaay delicious compared to the price level. It's the kind of meal you have 1-2 a week but i Respect your decision, maybe what makes it hyped is that we have used to it.👍🏻

    Welcome to Saudi Arabia. I hope to explore Saudi Arabia during it. Really far from Riyadh. There is the south of the Kingdom.

    Hello from Türkiye. You said in the previous video that it was injected with masala spice, but I don't think so. I ate at Jeddah about 30 years ago and all I can remember was the density of garlic. Now isn't it? Thanks, have a good Day..

    I think this is a fair review. Is it overhyped? Probably. Is it value for money? Most definitely. Considering portion sizes and costs compared to competitors it wins but from a taste perspective there is much much better fried chicken out there if you’re willing to pay more.

      @@Just_Food to be fair I haven't tried the Saudi ones but compared to the Dubai ones it's like a completely different restaurant. All I'll say is that the chicken from the older branches in Jeddah are some of the greatest pieces of fast food chicken I have ever eaten in my life. No other fast food chain that I've tried comes close. I don't know if it'll be worth your time to go to Jeddah to again try more Al baik but if you really want to, I'll say you won't be disappointed

    Why dp you keep getting the big baik with cheese? That honestly is just salty and sticky. Be it whereever, just get the spicy big baik without cheese, it's decent. Depending on the branch u r getting it from, it could be between a 7.5/10 - 9/10.
