Doha’s French Brunch Oasis: Paul Café at Villaggio Mall!

Hey foodies! 🥐✨ If you’re shopping at Villaggio Mall and need a break, skip the generic food court—Paul Café is your French escape! This chain might seem ordinary, but in Qatar, it’s a phenomenal Franco-Qatari hybrid loved by locals, expats, and even Habibi’s mom (who insists it’s her go-to breakfast spot!). 📍 Why Paul? Prime Location: Nestled by Villaggio’s iconic indoor canal, with a vintage Parisian facade you can’t miss. Vibe Check: Sunlit tables, floral china, and the hum of French-Arabic chatter—très chic without the pretension. Habibi-Approved: My partner and I keep coming back—it’s our carb-loaded love language. 🍴 MUST-ORDER MENU (Zero Regrets) 1️⃣ Eggs Benedict 🥚 Silky poached eggs + rich hollandaise on crispy sourdough. C’est magnifique! 2️⃣ Avocado Salmon Croissant 🥑🐟 Flaky croissant stuffed with creamy avocado and smoky salmon. Bite into happiness! 3️⃣ Chicken Caesar Salad 🥗 Qatar’s heat demands this: chilled romaine, tender grilled chicken, and just enough dressing. 4️⃣ Strawberry Mille-Feuille/Tart 🍓 Dessert royalty: Heavenly layers of puff pastry and fresh berries. Instagram first, eat second. 5️⃣ Paul Mix Juice 🍹 Strawberry + mango + kiwi = liquid sunshine. Chugs better than AC! 📸 Photogenic AF Golden Hour Glow: Open layout + mall skylights = natural filter. Aesthetic Alert: Marble tables, retro signage, and desserts that belong in a Louvre food exhibit. #DohaBrunchGoals #FrenchInQatar #VillaggioVibes #HabibiApproved #FoodieRomance #CarbLoadingClub #DohaSweetTooth
