Doha Good Food Guide

Welcome to the Doha Good Food Guide. It's the beginning of a great eating experience!

Add your review, good or bad, of a restaurant you ate at. It's an opportunity to catalogue Doha's eateries, and to use as an unbias reference again and again.

For simplicity and ease of use, a standard format needs to be used for each review.

For example:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
RESTAURANT NAME:

CUISINE TYPE:
(eg. modern, fine dining, cafe, el cheapo, buffet, bistro, indian, thai, japanese, arabic, etc)

THE SCORE:
- ATMOSPHERE:
- FOOD:
- SERVICE:
(use a simple rating system of A, B, C, or F.
A=the best, B=good, C=pass, F=fail/don't go)

LOCATION: (give a landmark aswell)

AVERAGE PRICE: (expensive, moderate, cheap)

ALCOHOL/WINE LIST: (a good selection for those wine connisuers?)

COMMENT/REVIEW: (remember, you get what you pay for, so be fair)

OVERALL SCORE: eg. B+

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Simple eh?
Happy eating everyone, and start your reviewing!!

Paul's Cafe

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 .

AL KHAIMA (22 Sept' 2007)

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.

Bennigan's Restaurant

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. :)

Italian Fisherman

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

Introducing myself to this group

(Sorry for maybe double posting, but I think I posted wrong before)
I see there is not much action, so I decided to say something,(details not in my profile) why I joined this group:

my nick is anciullo, but my real name is Angelo (from Italy)
I see one of the member name is exactly Angelo (from India, with this nick?funny)
and the group administrator is angel 123
so this group is a paradise
(by the way,I also divorced my wife, recently)
The administrator is a chef (working here in Doha I suppose,can I ask where?) australian
My son is a young chef, moved to Australia since 3 months
And I like cooking, eat and go to good restaurants.
ciao to everybody
