Authentic Indian Curry

Aryaas is mid level.....everyday food at low cost. And it's mainly veg.

But if you are in for a good diniing out experience I wouldn't chose it.

There's Maaza, they do a mean "Kadai chicken".

There's Asiana, not typical Indian food, but it's OK.

Then there is Shalimar for the banana leaf Sadya. Their butter chicken is also good.

Thai Snack is better in the day when it's not so busy ;)

Thai snack is my FAVE place in Qatar :0 No really, it is!

oh and about Thai, there is a Thai buffet at the Thai resto at the Grand Hyatt, don't know what day it is now, but it is FAB!!! and the service was, when I was there, OUTSTANDING!

Indeed NM it was Thai Snack ;)

I know I am bad. And yup I went against the advice. But the theme of the thread still seems to be, that the curry is just as good, if not better in the UK.

And back home I live in a sleepy little city that has no Thai, no Lebanese, and no Turkish restaurants. So it's best to give him food experiences he can't get back there.

Tb, where did you go for Thai? I hope it was Thai Snack!

Brit I have given up on curry as an idea in Qatar. I have decided that it would be better to look for other food experiences for my son while he is here. As the curry back home is better. So we had Thai today, and it's going to be Lebanese tomorrow.

britexpat.. 80% of the curry houses in the Uk are run by Bangadeshi.

Chingari has nice ambient. For value curries Qutba in Bin Dirhem is nice!

Did you go or not ??????

What's the verdict ...

The best curry house for me is called Spices - round the corner from where we live. They do take out as well as sit in. It is great food.

Safron Restaurant in Katara, doubtless.

It might seem expensive compared to other places, but the food and the setting itself are worth the expense.

She was damn good about food.Her posts her pics her love for food was more than amazing.I still go through her posts so many times.She is really worth missing.

nomerci its Aryas.. It is ok, nothing special.

I like their North Indian meal which they served during lunch hours..

How is a restaurant called Aryan or Arias?

I vote for

Chingari @ Ramada

Khazana near Souq Waqif.

@ TB, As for the Banana thingy, actually called "Sadya" try Shalimaar. They do a veg and non-veg SADYA

I'll bring my own plates and banana Leaf !

tell me where to deliver :)but its only a chicken pop corn :(

TB! you clever dude :)

tell me where to deliver :)but its only a chicken pop corn :(

TB! you clever dude :)

Da, Khanan is in extreme pressure at the moment...:(

Wait, he will get something for u - for sure.

my extreme meal of kfc where is it?

he is cleaning the tables and the kids area and kitchen sweeping :D

There are only paper plates in KFC Khanan. Aren't they going a bit soggy in the sink?

EXLegend!

DaRuling..on the way!

there is this relatively new place... Deccan Deewaan near midmac flyover beside papajohns.... serves good hyderabadi food... worth trying.

work lil more and send me the extreme meal from KFc

Now come to KFC Bin Omran and Pay for the Snack Box and Potato Mesh Gravy I had ..

I am inside doing dishes :(

Taj Palace has a good chicken soup, nothing good apart from that.

Never mind, take him to Chingari in the evening. Have hot curry with cold beer. Bliss :o)

No but I had ENOugh

Well TB, i just pray tat ur stomach is fine ? :(

Did u had ENO ?

I know Rizks, asked for good advice, got it, ignored it, paid the price :(

LmaO TB !

with so good info given by the Qlers u landed up in tat Banana resto and had in tat banana leaf ? :(

You would have told us well in advance tat u wanted to have ur lunch in some 3rd grade cheap and stinky resto ? :(

Sorry Khanan... went to the Taj Palace Resturant near QBC in the end. They do this banana leaf thing where they pile loads of different stuff on it for QR 15. Tried it before and decided to give the boy a go at that. But it was very disappointing. Crap service, cold rice blagh, blagh, blagh, moan, moan, moan. Won't go there again, even though I have said that about twice before, and still gone back, this time was indeed my last.

Should have gone to my lunch date with Khanan at KFC instead.

RofL Khanan !

wait wait he will surely come, make sure you are waiting out of KFC not Inside coz the temperature out if ONLY 47degress....:(

and Aalishan.... two of the best, TB....

food is lovely and the atmostphere is good too...

At Chingari, ask for a Snake coffee after dinner....If the curry wasn't hot enough... you'll get a real kick from the coffee;-p

I am waiting for you at KFC Bin Omran Branch!! :( :(

'Sent from my iPad-2-3G-64GB!'

you are now confusing me...

Aren't Chingari and Saffron, those two lovely ladies you met the Ramada ?

okies britey !

then lets go to Chingari ? :)

@ britexpat,the stuff i ate @ Saffron was pretty good but yes bloody expensive & portions were TINY by Indian standards...all style no substance,story of this town really,for the most case! :)...

Let's go to a decent restaurant..

i'll bring the hot Milk and Saffron :O)

britey can u take me to Saffron ? :(

We can have Hot Milk with Saffron mix in it over there....:)

It was all show.. Great tables, Menu Book..

The waiters were courteous, but the food was terrible.

Went to Saffron once. It was Crap and extremely expensive.

b2d, Welcome dine is horrible !

I had a very bad experience with them and since then i dont even go there anymore...

I have ordered Chicken Lollipop from there, it smells of FISH....:(

@ timebandit,try Chingari @ the Ramada,by far the best Indian food in Doha,Saffron @ Katara village is run by a Michelin starred Indian chef(2 stars) but it's more designer food than a real hearty meal which is what an Indian meal ought to be so i have my reservations about that place,food is good though,if very expensive but i suppose one pays for the Michelin star. Khazana @ souq Waqif is also good...as for "curry" in the UK,also referred to as Balti,mostly cooked by Bangladeshis NOT Indians & pretty far off the mark from the REAL curry back home in India(again,depends on where in India because a curry varies depending on region/state but in this case it's the Punjabi/Mughlai version) but most Brits wouldn't know the difference anyways(brown skin,spicy food,must be Indian eh?! NOT!)...

I ordered a boneless curry from Welcome Dine (behind Sana). It came with bones. I don't eat there any more :oS

will do :)

lol b2d !.....

Star of India too have some fine curries.

Riz, someone stole my effin F!

I notice nobody mentioned Aalishaan near Muntazah. Its quite nice and you can order a boneless meat dish..

Enjoy the curries..

and what is your speciality? I mean which curry you cook the best?? and when you are inviting us (me & SCFST) for a curry treat??

My wife showed me how to make Goan food so yesterday attempted Chicken xaccutti, it actually came out pritty well.

Next will be Sorpotel :)

its Jalfrezi !

B2D would love to know what they reply

Saudi was best. Amazing restaurants serving fresh food and hot naan :O)

Tink, I even make my own! I do a mean Jalrezi ;o)

Gore, their Murg Kadai was to die for. I've just sent them an email to see if they have any intention of coming here :o)

Ramada for curry meal with cool drinks and heavy sexy waitresses :P

b2d Mughal mahal was amazing used to go there every second weekend, best was the butter chicken. wish they brought it this side.

Ramada for curry meal with heavy drinks and cool sexy waitresses :P

see link:

You'll like it :O)

Lol britey you Red bum monkey ! :)

Brits love curries that turn the cheeks red and come out hotter than they went in :O)

There is a curry house at Qatar Sports Club. Where? I now about the BK, the sub place, the coffee house and Applebees. Where is the curry house Brit?

Rizks said it..

Bukhara..

It is next to the Qatar Tennis Club , adjacent to Qatar Sports Club in west Bay ..

BTW, a shameless plug for the best Indian Restaurant in Kuwait. http://www.mughalmahal.com/

Would eat here every day if I could :o)

Hot curries burns the Ar#$e....:)

Try Bukhara Resto near Tennis stadium its good.

Also the Garden Royal, Royal Tandoor.

Brit are you talking about Bhukara near the Tennis Club?

TB.. try Bhukara or Aalishan

Now be honest. Do you really think there is a decent Indian food restaurant in Doha ?

If so, which one ?

Near West Bay?

Hot curries Tinks.

Bukhara ?

Take him to Mazza restaurant and order kadahi paneer or chicken tikka masala..they are less spicy and good in cooking it..

Curries are definitely better in the UK..

There's a place in Westbay, at the Qatar Sports Club which serves a decent food. Forgot the name... :O(

TB, In UK you tend to get the best cuts of meat in a curry house. Out here I find a lot of bone, fat and gristle :o(

Now, someone prove me wrong!
