      Kind of defeats the purpose of being in a restaurant in the first place if you segregate yourself from other people. If you don't wish to eat amongst others, stay at home and have your meal there.
      Don't get me wrong. Loud and rude people are annoying but the dining experience is about accepting that you are among other people whilst eating......

    The reason for the curtains is for women and couples to eat privately. Some women cover their face and do not want to be seen by men while eating. Lots of restaurants in muslim countries have that aswell as family corners on a separate floor.

    That Greenfield tea is actually Russian but marketed as a UK tea. Surprisingly strong and good flavor, at least when I tried the ceylon variant!

      "English" or "English breakfast" tea refers to a blend of teas and its strong flavour. (really it's just a marketing term, doesn't mean much beyond saying it's black and a little bitter)

    Tea is very important in that part of the world. Intertwined with culture and gathering. They gave you English tea (surprised they had it) to make you feel comfortable. In my opinion. They gave you what they thought you wanted.

    Laghman is one of my favorite dishes. People from Uzbekistan brought the recipe with them to Saudi Arabia. However, the noodles used are different from the ones in the video. They are flat and thin, more like tagliatelle than spaghetti.

      Must be a sad life without bacon, muslims could give up on this senseless tradition. Btw original gulyás (goulash) is made of beef and it’s a soup. The word itself means the shepherd who takes care of the “gulya” cattle horde in Hungarian.
