Used to stay in Saudi before....Al Baik is epic in Saudi and beats every fast food chain hands down. KFC & Popeye's doesn't get any love if there is a AB around.
Yeh the only reason they used to thrive and survive is coz AB wasn't in the Eastern region of ksa till recently. Now that they have arrived here, popeyes has vanished from khobar and hardees branches have reduced here but kfc is still surviving. Mcdonalds and bk are thriving cos of their specials and beef.
This review is awesome! I've tried Al-Baik at Saudi and it was very good. It would be great to see more brands expanding throughout the middle east. Have you tried Pepe's in Dubai? It would be great to get your review for it and compare it to the UK (a lot of people have said it is much better than the UK stores)
I went to the same al baik in the dubai mall and waited 6 hours in line to get well some mediocre food the burger was good but very heavy cuz 9f the cheese they use and the nuggets were good with that nugget sauce but not worth waiting in line with the entire population of the uae Qatar and Kuwait combined
Great review Ali! That crispy batter looked really interesting! And the nuggets! 🤤🤤 - So good to have you back, really looking forward to the Dubai content and everything else 🙏❤️🔥🙏
Mash'Allah brother Ali , on point again as always 😊. Quick request would you consider giving advice on travelling ...do's and don'ts? . Especially with covid restrictions etc.....btw had my 1st Al baik in Makkah way back in 2006
Hey Could you please tell me what pastry shop sell those authentic itialian pastries? I saw a youtube short you did but i cant seem to find the video anywhere ! Ive searched all over your channel 😭
Ali, is there a difference in taste between UK vs UAE or Asia's KFC ? And how much better is one from the other maybe a video idea comparing franchises internationally.
While traveling abroad, when in doubt KFC is my safest choice.. Personally to my tastes, every country had it's own uniqueness on the special menus, but the batter, oil and cold-slaw will almost taste the same nevertheless.. 🤔
UK "halal" KFCs arent exactly halal as they use stunned chicken. Same with Nandoes etc. Would kindly request brothers/sisters to be vigilant on these franchises who claim to use halal chicken.
@@HussainMubeen shukran akhi, glad someone finally pointed it out I was tempted to but people get defensive when they have cognitive dissonance lol , we must be willing to sacrifice for the sake of our creator (Allah) .
@@HEYMANFOODREVIEWS just come back from Turkey myself bro. Their food is very bland. Personally didn’t like it. And their kebabs are nothing like the UK
Tried it in Saudi, thought it was utter garbage. Watery nuggets and overcooked chicken with no seasoning. Saw the line in Dubai mall when on holiday a month back, and was baffled at how long it is every time. Must be because it’s cheap (and cheerful I guess?). Edit** definitely looks much better in your video, but I’m still not waiting in that line😂
Al baik is by far the best fast food chain for me, but the reason why it is only found mostly in gulf countries is that if it goes to other countires, kfc and popeyes are gonna go bankrupt. Well thats has happened in saudi arabia and even in uae now. And i wm totally eith it cus kfc and popeyes are nothing infront of albaik
I'm from Manchester and I'm currently living out in Jeddah (the home of Al Baik). Yes, it is incredibly cheap and fresh but it simply doesn't compare to the fried chicken joints in Manchester. I probably go there once every 6 months as it's cheap, cheerful and convenient. One thing I'll say is that Al Baik is an institution in Saudi, especially the west coast. Every Al Baik is packed no matter what time of day or night. When I'm back in Manchester, I'll have a chicken burger at least 3 times a week at various takeaways. Now, if you're talking about burger joints (smashed patties etc), no place or city in the UK comes close to the burger scene in Jeddah - The quality is insane.
Great Vid. It’s always nice to go to a food court and not worry if the food is halal or not ☺️I think I’ll fly to Dubai just to try those Chicken nuggets they looked great.. And I guess you’ve left your Heymans back in Blighty 😂😂
Had it in Saudi, unfortunately didn't manage to get a fresh hot broast but it was decent. Need to get it properly. Just goes to show how much everyone else rips you off. And yep, no idea why they add extra buns

Man, I feel like buying a plane ticket to experience this epic value meal!
...Hang on a second.
Hahaha
Honestly when I was a kid we would go to makkah or any city other than riyadh for albaik and on the way back i would eat all the garlic sauce
What an excellent review!!! You got a magnetic personality!
Wow, thank you!
I loike ur review!! u r bootiful.
Oh thank you!
Al Baik is sick. I had it in Saudi when went for Umrah. Also try the broast in Rusholme from a place called Reydan which is a Yemeni restaurant.
I’ll try that for sure!!
I’ll try that for sure!!
Their big baik (long sandwich) is also sooo delicious😋😋 it's also cheap but big enough for a person meal🤩
And shrimp shawarma too😋
As a local in Dubai this is the only fast food chain I will ever enjoy I think it’s phenomenal for fast food I must say enjoy it
Man it's been a while since I had some baik can't wait to get back home and get me some
Have you tried raidan Yemeni restaurant in Manchester? They make chicken which is just like AB
Great vid yet again
Thanks bro

Al baik 🥇🌍
40 years ago in Jeddah, it was the first branch.
You are welcome
Thanks for letting me know
This is amazing!
It really is 💯
Come to MOMBASA KENYA please!
Went to this location days before New Years Eve and the line was easily an hour out. It was good but a slight difference from the Saudi locations!
One day I’ll try the Saudi locations Inshallah

Try out Jesters next time your in Dewsbury. They claim to be in partnership with Al baik. Your comparison will he good
Interesting
Hello! Thank you for your video. Would you share us the exact location of Saudi's AL Baik in Dubai please?
Dubai mall upstairs food court
Apparently Saudi one tastes better according to Abdul Malik Fareed who is a Saudi resident and visited Dubai recently
I’ll have to try the Saudi one one day
Exactly🤩
I’ve had Al baik in Saudi
It is so so nice
Nothing can match Al baik in the Uk
Soooooo good man, wish we had an equivalent here
🏴👏 everything looks delicious 👏🏴
💯💯💯💯
Just Wow
💯💯💯💯
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video.
Very welcome
@@HEYMANFOODREVIEWS 🙂
You should try the broast from Raydan in Manchester and see if it taste's as good!?
Think I’ll go there soon tbh! They look good
I would like to know the place or location please
Really looking forward to watching it later.
Hope you enjoy bro

But you can get food for cheaper go to a local resturaunt it gets cheaper and can be even better

Great vid...when ur next in oldham please try oldham fried chicken on Featherstall Road, it beats all the chicken burger reviews 😋 😀
Thanks for the suggestion
💚❤💚
4:40 😂😂😂😂
I approve this message! 😅
It’s actually more expensive in Dubai than Saudi Arabia, for example 10 pc ngts in Saudi Arabia is for 16 Riyals 😂
Wow
Not only good value, but definitely looks like a heyman that fried chicken.
💯💯💯💯
I have eaten that for more than 20 years while I was in Saudia - nothing comes closer to what I eat here in UK
It’s amazing!
I had this 😂😂😂😂 i dont know how they made the chicken
Brooooo you forgot the main thing THE GARLIC SAUSE BROOO

Looks at rectangular nugget. "That's not processed at all"
It’s a piece of chicken breast cut into a rectangle rather than a processed nugget

Hey!
Looks dry and I’ve seen you diss takeaways in Manchester that have dried fried chicken….no consistency
If something is dry I say it’s dry.
If it’s juicy I say it’s juicy.
This was juicy so guess what I called it? Juicy.
Oooooh
Al Baik puts KFC to shame
God those are so cheap compared to London prices!!
They are! Bargain
I had this last week but only tried the 4 piece meal, I personally didn't like it. The batter was so bland. Although everyone says the nuggets is better, so need to try that.

It is cheap but not even close to the cheapest place to eat.
Had this twice in dubai last week lol
Haha same
People only go there because it's cheap, but the chicken tastes like shit, I gave it a chance 2 times but no way, my self made fried chicken tastes way better
Yeah that's true 👍
