Doha Food Chronicles: 95% Disappointment Rate 🚨

1️⃣ Baytsharq – “Classic Qatari Breakfast” A tray of flatbread + assorted dips – mediocre at best. The “Tray Set” could feed a small army – three of us couldn’t finish it. 2️⃣ Ritz-Carlton Sharq Village Breakfast Shockingly limited options for a luxury resort. Pro: Great ambiance. Con: My unattended plate became bird brunch within seconds. 🐦➡️🍽️ 3️⃣ Tea Time – “Local Milk Tea Legend” Cheap and crowded. Tried saffron milk tea + special blend – diabetes in a cup with heavy spices. Survivable but not enjoyable. 4️⃣ Parisa Souq Waqif – “1,001 Nights Nightmare” ☢️ Disaster strikes: Watermelon “cake” – salt-bomb center Dry rice/meat drowning in aggressive spices Zero edible dishes despite reservations + hype. WHY DOES THIS PLACE EXIST? 5️⃣ Al Mandarin Fruit Shake – “The Only Redeemer” 🏆 Mango shake: Perfect sweetness balance – my Holy Grail of drinks in Doha! 6️⃣ Arabic Coffee + Dates – “Cultural Experience Gone Wrong” Coffee = bitter herbal medicine. Dates = too sweet. Combined = 🤢. Failed the “balance” promise spectacularly. 7️⃣ Mamig (Katara’s Top Armenian Spot) – “Kebab Betrayal” 🔪 Turned decent meat into sweet sauce abominations. All “top sellers” landed in the trash. AVOID EVERY DISH PICTURED HERE! 8️⃣ Bayt El Talleh – “View Saves the Day (Kinda)” ✅ TripAdvisor’s #1 lives up to hype – 190 QAR set menu with 4 non-cloying desserts. ❌ Service fail: Leftovers got tossed like trash during 20min neglect. #ToBeContinued #StillDiscoveringDisasters #QatarFoodFails #DohaDiningDisappointments #SurvivalGuideNeeded
