bnb, got it and replied :)

Alumnar- u got my PM??

Good day everybody!

Just confirmed with hubby who is looking forward to experience the Restaurant and also to meet everybody! So get confirming and Saeed will make sure it is booked for us Friday, between 1pm and 1,30pm (as some of you/us travel from a bit further away).

Kashmiri lol

Kashmiri cuisine especially of my Grandmama's hand

LOL expat, nice to hear she wants you to grow old together - just like hubby and I feel. We are quite 'round' and we both know we have to lose weight - keep trying but this place is just not helping at all. Need to get our heads around it though...

Time to sleep.

Thanks everybody for a great on-line conversation and fabulous contributions! Amazing how lunch plans came out of it :))) really looking forward to it!

Let's just revive this topic tomorrow and make plans here and via pm :)

Good night to everybody x :)

See how smart I am? Lol

SAEED KHAN when you going to open your brayuni shop?don't forget to invite us.

I think she's been reading too many things about women outliving their husbands ;)

But seriously, I have to admit I do feel better since she came back from hols and started cooking healthy and getting me into the gym. I just like to have something to grumble about. hehe

khanaan, come dude and come right now!!

Khanan, of course! Will be great to meet / see you again folks :)

Now what can I go and snack on? Got popodoms but too much work at this time... Gonna have to be a peach or two... sigh.... Hope that makes you feel better expat ;)

Expat, is it for health reasons or is the warden a health freak???

Thanks for doing that saeed, by morning I will be on the laptop with a decent post speed! :)))

after Friday Prayers....

12:30-1:00 pm insha'Allah

TC..can I come?

Grrrrrr bnb! Good night to you too ;)

Just amazing how this topic took off and ended up with lunch arrangements! Really great :)))

oooops..but i heard draculas fangs are intoxicating, and sucks so slowly that he need a week to drain a whale like me...so no worries!!

Then I don't get another shot for a month! I'm glad I am not the only one ;)

Let's keep the event on this topic. I would like a good group to meet, not a huge group. We can exchange contact info via pm - saeed, if you please start a pm between the QL'ers Who would like to join us and others who you think might like to come. NO troublemakers! We will have our daughter with us. Meeting time... Say 1,30pm so everybody has time for prayers and to travel to Wakra?

I try to save as many brownie points as i can from the Mrs, but usually blow them all in one night! :0(

and think you are offering your blood!

I'll store up my privileges so I'm not the Cinderella of the evening :)

who wants a few pints, come down to my place right now!! am not kidding!!

guys..time to sleep....good nite....

Alumnar- have a sweet dreams on Indian Curries followed by Hot brownie with Icecream... :)

Looking forward to downing a few pints whenever you are free expat ;)

Will check the link tomorrow from the laptop bnb, thanks :)

but my daughter and her family are coming in on Thursday night so I've been warned not to make any plans for this weekend :( Maybe next time, though ;)

Expat, are you ocasionally allowed out for a few pints?

Alumnar, did u tried any Indian gravy at home??? I will suggest u one site, it has given video as well. I am sure, u will love it.

try this, www.manjulaskitchen.com

i can join!

I'm up for Friday lunch at the Biriyani Hut! 2 adults, 1 child. Who will join? :)

Saeed, I crave a good curry but I can wait - I'm not pregnant! LOL!

o yeah with afghan hash brownies!!

for cheney!

see i didnt shave my beard in that bunker!

Lanin... KFC, Pizza Hut and McD can kiss my ***! We are talking real and proper tasty food here, not rubber tasteless crap! Was this clear enough? Heehee! ;)

stop calling me TAIL!! u kan!!

I figured they were in the bunker underneath the white house with dick cheney ;P

saeedkan on friday and when is your turn??

to invite me for delicious Afghani food??

Mullah Omer and OBL are in Mailbu ;)

Here! Sorry but I am typing in bed on a stoopid little iPod touch with a snail speed connection and on top of it all I WANT A CURRY NOW! LOL!

hahahah...ok i will get google coordinates of that place soon

upps all delicious items cum out....see no body yet tell that KFC, McDonald or Pizza is favorite....so means it's not preferred to any of you..... really grate....and thanks to all......

hey all any of you don't like dry fish.......

I also went to one in gharaffa when I lived here before the Asian games. I couldn't tell you what the names of the dishes were but it was great. I even loved the okra and eggplant dishes, which were never my favorites when I was growing up. Probably something to do with the onions, tomatoes, garlic and peppers ;)

but so many twists and turns on the trip there, I thought I was being taken to meet with mulla omar himself ;D

I know that one!! shabby place , amazing food! right??

But I would surely like some good Afghani food. I went to an Afghani place here one time but have never been able to find it again on my own because we took so many twists and turns. It was in the general vicinity of the airport/mall area.

ex.ex.expat I can provide you with amazing afghan dishes from roof top with a rope and bucket. (you shall be charged for this!!)if you can save me from wardens wrath!

and of course the more than occasional curry ;)

just the color, filfil my favorate I love that spicy malbary food, with all kind of spicies they use along.

and the old staple, bangers and mash. I get misty-eyed every time I think I'll never lay my eyes on a banger again if the warden has her way ;)

when we are meeting for authentic Hyderabadi Baryani?

wow..nice plan Alumnar...just start another thread for it and lets see how many are joining..I am in for lunch at "Biriyani Hut"

Just checked Khanan and yes, saeed, it's the Biriyani Hut :)))

Thanks for the congrats Saeed :)

So, when are we meeting at Wakra for a meal? Friday lunch? Then we can make an afternoon gathering out of it :)

Long lasting sensations.

yes alumnar- i tried the same at chillies...but yes me and hubby shared it so could finish it in 10 mins..he he...it was really yummy.....

o yea it does, hot n cold n sweet n orgasmic!!

yes it is expensive but worth trying..u will get variety in food. Here in all the restu, the menu is almost same and I am fed up of eating the same...thats why I liked Sanjeev Kapoor's..

Bnb - did you try that desert at chilli's which is hot chocolate fudge cake, icecream and chocolate sauce? I had it twice, can't finish it, end up complaining afterwards for hours that I feel sick but it tastes Sooooooo Amazing!!!!!

Alumnar?

TC.yup these are my fav too :)

oh I never tried any restu in Wakra..but may try "Biriyani Hut" soon.... I personally liked "Sanjeev Kapoor's" restu, they have delicious food.

Did you hear about the Indian Restaurant in Wakra? The review is amazing, it's in this months' Doha Time Out magazine. That would be worth a try.

Thank you Khanan :)

What happened to Dot.Com?

baloachi sajji, peshawari chappal kabab rocks

stop calling me tail!! paya and nehari are seperate, yeah haleem is made world wide now...and shezan is shitty

Alumnar :)

The original Afghani Tikka and BBQ...

I miss Dot.com :(..RIP dot.com

lol yeah Alumnar- u made me crave for hot chocolate with icecream.. specially when u r on dieting u crave more for such things... :)

That is a great idea bnb :) we should do that soon!

Now I'm craving Indian food! Shall we meet in half hour? (joke)

Alumnar ...i donno about Indian food, nihari , sajji, haleem, tarka chicken daal, khoosht, tak-a-tak, payey...are pakistani dishes (shezan is the only paki rsturant, and pathetic too, offering nothing in above list)

I love the hot chocolate with Icecream... i liked this at Chillis...it was awesome.....

I love dark chocolate AND seafood :)

There is not much I don't like... ;)

Lets plan for some QL meet up in Indian restu...

TC and Saeed - just say when and we will be there!!! I absolutely ADORE Indian food!!!

My husband loves chana masala bnb :)

Almost anything seafood and spicy..yummy!That's as far as mains go. And for deserts anything ice cold n chocolate.. as dark as it gets!

I love Panipuri, chats and everything available at Bombay Chowpati... :)

Everybody can make Wiener Schnitzel at home.

since im from Vienna, the original Wiener Schnitzel is from the veal.

Nowadays pork is used cos its cheap.

Mallus food, spicy and so tasty!!

Alumnar, ok, butter tarka daal (with chiken) on me someday!!

I LOVE daal with roti :))))) yummy!!!

another salute!

Thank you TC :))) 12 years and happier every day :)

Wiener Schnitzel!!! How I miss that dish...

True about the lack of ingredients here - specially the main 'ingredient' for Schnitzel!

Sauerkraut and Eisbein... Ohhhh...

Crispy battered cod fish with chips and mushy peas!

Tandoori prawns (just how they do them in the Chingari Restaurant in the Ramada Hotel) with vegetable coconut curry and naan bread...

Steak and Kidney pie, Mashed potatoes , peas and lots of gravy ..........................

Happy aniversary Alumnar!

My favourtie dish is Nihari, Haleem and Taka Tak

fav food, anything thai.

cooked chilli and garlic fried rice tonight.

Tom Yam Kung soup

Boiled eggs in creamy mustard sauce with roasted onions and mashed potatoes

Wiener Schnitzel with warm potato salad

White asparagus boiled, with bearnaise sauce and new baby potatoes

Goulash with "semmelknoedel"

Italian veal escalope with a light lemon sauce and meditarenian vegetables

and so on and so forth...;)

Sadly I can't cook to many of those dishes here as many staple ingredients are not available and/or of minor quality.
