Going to Oshi Sushi restaurant at Eid proved to be a great choice !As it is a new place at the third floor of the Royal plaza we managed to avoid the crowds .Only four five families were having Eid lunch and it was really relaxing there !The music , the beautifully and simply set table , the bento , the sashimi , the miso , the Japanese curry ... all made me feel as I was in Japan ... it was a reaL ESCAPE .
We were using fork and spoon - but also we were trying to use the chopping sticks .The hot, wet towels were meant to clean our hands before and not after eating .I learnt that only later when I was reading more on the Japanese cuisine !

PAUL'S CAFE

I was very disappointed when I found this cafe closed during Eid . Was there a mouse like at the Carrefour in summer ? I have not heard anything - just I saw with sadness that it was closed due to the municipalities order .
This restaurant cafe is so popular and not without merit .
The service is quick and nice .The decor is vintage style - rustic chairs arranged in casual manner.The cakes are tasty ,old fashioned calorie bombs .
When we asked for a kid's meal -first we were given some tasty bread and butter and tapenade .Then came the chicken sandwich which was described as small in the menu - but actually it was large enough for three kids . The ice cream was OK . The cappuccino was a real ,continental hot drink , not a bucket -but a reasonable cup comme il faut .

Hi,

Did anyone try any of their outlets, is the food good or no.

Hope to get soem feedback.

Me and a couple of my buddies went for Iftar to Al Khaima (No denying that this is my fav restaurant for grilled arabic food no matter what part of year, time or day.)

They have a buffet from 1730 to 1630 for ramadan at Qrs.60/- per head and booking is in advance.

Juices - Orange tang and some brown coloured sour stuff.
They have lentel soup,
Appertizers - mutabel, hummus, tabule, green salad.
Main course - grilled fish (Can't comment, as I am not much for sea food), grilled chicken, lamb, kebabs, french fries, whole lamb on a bed of rice, half chicken grilled on a bed of rice, beef burgers with dollop of mashed potatoes on a sea of tomato sauce, chicken on some sort of beans.
For dessert - arabic sweets, don't know the names about 8 of them.

Hi everybody! I would like to share my experience about this lovely neighbourhood restaurant called Bennigan's. I just recently joined to the group, so I will try to write my reviews and experiences frequently.

Rating: A
Food: A
They have a good variety of meat, fish and vegetarian meals. I love the French onion soup, the crab cake (yummi)and the ceasar salat. This is what I ate so far but intend to go back soon.
Service: A
The staff is very kind and fast.
Atmosphere: A
Of course it's not an elegant restaurant, but in the neighbourhood category it's a good one. Impressive decoration. :)

RESTAURANT NAME:Italian Fisherman
CUISINE TYPE: Italian
THE SCORE: ***
- ATMOSPHERE:nice, pleasant, very empty, only customers
- FOOD: menu says fresh seafood = you get frozen seafood on plate
Appetizers: didn't order any
Soup: disn't order any
Main dish:ordered the seafood pizza. The seafood wasn't fresh, and very little, a lot of cheese on it, but I think it was of a sweeter variety, not the traditional mozerella.
- SERVICE:was OK since we were the only customers there!

LOCATION: next door to Merch and Tadmur on Salwa Rd. (just under the bridge)
AVERAGE PRICE: Reasonably priced on menu
COMMENT/REVIEW: Overpriced on bill!! A bottle of Gulfa was QRs14. They also added a service charge and charged extra for the food without letting us know in advance.
OVERALL SCORE: F

Hei members, why I have the impression that the manager of this group is not available? maybe he left? or too busy cooking ? (I could understand this)Please tell me if you feel the same
