When I enter the beautiful Il Villaggio Restaurant in Jeddah, I feel as though I am stepping into a gorgeous Italian villa. The stained glass dome (above) is spectacular sight at the entryway of the restaurant. Just beneath the stained glass are a variety of lovely images of scenes from Italy (below).
My husband and I spent a wonderful evening in January enjoying the food, service, architecture, and the company of other guests for a very special occasion, the kick-off of Il Villaggio’s 5th Annual International Day of Italian Cuisines. To read more about our experience, CLICK HERE.

It’s a bright and cheery ceiling.
That ceiling is rich. I love it. I bet the food is good also.
Fantastic, stained-glass dome! Molto bello!
Ciao Susie!
Gosh that top image is stunning Susie, that is my very favorite colour combination, I hope that the food was as inspired as the decor.
looks very fancy – surely for special occasion. but what a fabulous dome.
