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 .
When sitting at this cafe I got the surrealistic feeling that I just arrived to South France to visit my non-existing French aunt -and this fictive ambiance made me feel so good ..

AL KHAIMA (22 Sept' 2007)

Angelo — Sun, 23 Sep 2007 17:28:38 +0300

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.
And end it all with Solamani tea, or turkish coffee

What I understand is that it is a Syrian Restaurant.

During regular times ........
We usually prefer to be a group of 3 or 4 then we can have a variety. We usually order a mixed appertizer platter which is Hummus, Mutabel, Mixed green salad, olives, stuffed wine leaves (5 varieties) for Qr. 35/- or you could make up your own and they will charge you accordingly, Qr.5/- per variety.

We then order the one Kg mixed grill, which is enough for 3 to 4 adults. There are skewers of chicken, Lamb, Chicken and Lamb Kebabs, (All these are about one each per individual) this is served with french fries. Qr.90/- whole or Qr.25/- per person (Reduced price if ordered in bulk - the balance of which you can offer as a tip). All the grilled food is moist and melts in the mouth.

Their long bread is a must have, you can just have it plain or with tea, we start of with the bread and the appertizer and then work our way to the main menu.

We order everything in advance and tell them to bring the appertizers first and after about 15 - 20 minutes the main course.

If I go with my family and as most of them speak only arabic, I point in the menu what I want and make a hand sign for the long bread - since I am pretty regular they kind of know what I want.

They also have a boneless killer chicken grill.

The restauant is divided into two, for the male it is wood and glass, for the family side nice and bright with marble.

Atmosphere is good
Food - excellent to me.
Service - excellent, they come as soon as you call and food takes about 10 - 15 minutes from time of order. Moreover if you are a regular they anticipate your requirements and are prepared.

Location - End of all Saad Street just before CQB branch, opposite Q-tel building.

Price is average as mentioned above.
No booze - sorry, But I luv my food.
Overall Score A+

I like my food.

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

shorti122 — Tue, 28 Aug 2007 12:28:18 +0300

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
