I DRESS-UP AND EAT

Hey there all chocolate lovers and to all those adamant consumers of Nestle's  KIT KAT ! Our favorite chocolate-covered wafer confection has something new for us here in the Middle East!  Say H-e-l-l-o! to the  new line of sweet treats which comes in 3 new flavors, and it's collectively called: ALL ABOUT YOU ! The three flavors of   Kit Kat's All About You are:  COCONUT DOUBLE CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT I  relished more of the Hazelnut and the Double Chocolate flavors, since I am so into, and have been loving for years, hazelnut and chocolate.  But this does not mean that the Coconut flavor is not worth trying, it has its own interesting tang too!

This table, by the glass window with a street view, is our favorite dining spot in the restaurant.  Lucky again that it was vacant when we arrived. Our choice of refreshments, were as usual, served first: top: Ripe   Mango Shake and Cold Calamansi Juice bottom: F...

After two years of officially blogging about food, I am now on my 197th post on a Christmas Day! And this blog post is indeed quite special since I am featuring this newly discovered favorite in my new location.   I have been very upfront and consistent with my declaration for the love of anything Thailand, and that, of course, includes its cuisine!  After spotting this restaurant a few months ago, we have dined in here for the 8th time, the latest, and have identified new favorites and established a go-to meal combo! For those who have been residing in Qatar for more than a year and you are a self-declared foodie or someone who loves Thai cuisine or any of the Southeast Asian cuisines, it is highly possible that you have dined here - AMJAD THAI SNACK RESTAURANT in Al Nasr.  For the months of November and December 2017, we have had our dinners at this restaurant for 6 times, such loyal customers, right?.  And from those dinner dates, we conquer...
