3rd Street Donuts opens
U.S. Ambassador to Oman Marc J. Sievers visited 3rd Street Donuts to mark its official opening as part of the Discover America Festival in Oman and also to celebrate a success story of the US-Oman Free Trade Agreement (FTA). The café is owned and operated by Omani entrepreneur Mundhir Al Alawi, who explained how he fell in love with American donuts during his studies in Los Angeles, California. 3rd Street Donuts is a small business venture in collaboration with a local American donut bakery in Los Angeles, California. The café specialises in fresh and made-to-order donuts. The toppings and fillings in the donuts are unique to the Omani market. 3rd Street Donut is located in Seeb, behind Sultan School. The Café is open from 2pm to 10pm every day.
