Last month, I even make otak otak and sambal stingray - banana leaves and all and had BBQ party at my place.
Food n restaurants - everything international can also find. Only difference is price and getting to know where they sell. Check out Shop Rite supermart along Airport Road and Carrefour when you come. Thai Snack is one restaurant that most Asians like to visit. A SAHM is even selling home order mini-curry puff.
Just discovered that they have sushi/sashimi corner in Landmark Carrefour just like back home. Less variety though (comes pre-packed variety sets between 38QR to 87QR).
Soccer. Played when younger. I think can still play but stamina gone lah. Especially in this heat too 'xiong' lah. Watched the Qatar vs Aust qualifier match last Sat. An experience cos small group of 1000 Aussie fans amongst whole stadium of qataris fans in white. Haven't heard of any group playing. I know there was a tennis n bowling group before but i think the bowling group stopped. My wife n I do run free weekly yoga classes though. Better when you are here to try the quad bike and dune bashing with 4x4 near Sealine. Something new (even my kids try it). Beaches are also clean and water clear (shallow though). Fishing is good esp with a boat. Fishing from the shore will still catch u small fishes (but sure can get a few).
