Turning a Boeing 707 to Restaurant! Meet The Palestinian Twin

Published July 9th, 2021 - 06:39 GMT

A Palestinian twin in the West Bank are finalizing work on a decommissioned a Boeing 707 aircraft fully turning init into a restaurant.

The brothers, 60-year-old, Ata and Khamis al-Sairafi, say that the restaurant will be ready within weeks as it will be ready to welcome all customers. Boeing 707 restaurant, decorated with both Palestinian and Jordanian Flags, is located in an isolated mountain area near Nablus.

They have removed the main seats in the cabin room and the window panes were also taken out. The Palestinian twin also added that soon they will add tables in the fuselage.

The twin plan have decided to name their plane restaurant "the Palestinian-Jordanian Airline Restaurant and Coffee Shop Al-Sairafi Nablus".
