King Abdullah II of Jordan visited a local restaurant in Richardson during his trip to North Texas for the World Cup. He was seen dining at Khashoka, a Jordanian restaurant, on Sunday.
Local Connection
Khashoka, which means ‘a spoon that feeds everyone,’ has several locations open across the Middle East and first opened its doors in North Texas in 2025. The restaurant’s owner, Muhammad Albakri, imports more than 90% of its ingredients directly from Jordan.
The Jordanian soccer team also visited Khashoka following their 3-1 loss to Lionel Messi and Argentina. Albakri had hoped the team would visit his restaurant during their stay in the Lone Star State.
