Tabule is a restaurant located in Roda al Murooj, and you guessed it right...it is an Arabic restaurant, since it shares its name with a famous Levantine salad. It has indoor as well as outdoor seating, and as the weather was pleasant, we chose the latter. I like their use of small white lights which gives the place a calm feel.  They welcomed us with a refreshing orange-based drink in a lovely glass.  We started with the usual Arabic cold starters.
