8. Al Angham

A night of high-class Omani culture should definitely take in a performance at Muscat’s Royal Opera House and a top-end meal at Al Angham. The restaurant offers attentive service and Omani dishes such as harees, lamb stews and Omani lobster. Unlike many of the upscale establishments, Al Angham doesn’t have an alcohol license, a fact which is compensated for by the fruit cocktails and fresh juices on offer. Finish off the meal with frankincense ice cream and, if possible, a visit to the private dining room to see the restaurant’s stunning, custom-made chandelier.
