Food from Al Banush

Eating out in Qatar is easy... there are restaurants everywhere. I have tried a variety of food I have not eaten before, I have tried foods from countries and cultures I have never heard of, and all in all I have enjoyed my experiences.

The restaurants here vary from dirty looking shanty buildings, but with amazing foods, to 5 star restaurants in the hotels and top class shopping centres in and around the Doha city centre.




Although all of the above is good for the palette and varied in portions, prices and appearance, I have yet to find anywhere that has the value for money that we get from Al Banush Club.

We eat there maybe twice a month, and I it never ceases to amaze me how they can serve delicious, top quality steaks, with fries, veg, and a variety of relishes for 20 QR, this is about £3.50!!!

We regular order a 2 course meal for 2, with soft drinks (non-alcohol allowed in the restaurant) dipping bread and sauces while you wait, and we get change from 70QR...Approx £12.00!!

The food is good, and cooked to perfection, the waiters are polite, friendly and attentive.... the wait maybe longer than we expect in the UK, but we are wrong to stamp out own standards on things when we are in another country. If you want food freshly cooked and served correctly sometimes you have to have a little patience.

We have family visiting over the xmas period and I think we will be eating there regularly....it will be cheaper to take them there for a meal then it would buying in enough food to feed them all!!
