Bahrain is shaking things up in the culinary scene with some new rules for tourism restaurants aimed at boosting safety and standards!<\/p>\n

As part of these changes, all touristic restaurants, including those with live entertainment, are now required to close their doors by 3 AM<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Tourism Minister Fatima bint Al Sairafi made the announcement, emphasizing that all restaurants must halt operations by this new closing time. But that\u2019s not all! To ensure a peaceful atmosphere, live entertainment, including DJs and music, will be banned starting at 2:30 AM to 12pm. So if you\u2019re looking to dance the night away, you\u2019ll want to get your groove on a bit earlier!<\/p>\n

Another significant change is that all tourist restaurants must now secure a license from the Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority before they can open their doors<\/h3>\n

This includes getting approval for their location, ensuring that everything is above board.<\/p>\n

But wait, there\u2019s more!<\/p>\n

All venues in the Kingdom are also expected to display a valid health license<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This measure ensures that residents and visitors can enjoy a safe and healthy dining experience. Whether you\u2019re grabbing a late-night bite or dining with friends, you can rest easy knowing that health and safety are top priorities.<\/p>\n

These new regulations reflect Bahrain’s commitment to improving the quality of its tourism sector while keeping everyone’s safety in mind.<\/p>\n

So, next time you’re out enjoying the vibrant restaurant scene, just remember things will be winding down a bit earlier, but the fun doesn\u2019t have to stop!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bahrain is shaking things up in the culinary scene with some new rules for tourism restaurants aimed at boosting safety and standards!
