If you're looking to have a traditional meal in Qatar, one of the best ways to do so would be by visiting restaurants that offer the 'majlis' dining experience.
A 'majlis' is a gathering place in Qatari culture and translates to 'a place of sitting'. What is unique about it is the seating is low-lying with cushions placed on the ground.
Although this is a predominant part of Qatari culture, it is also shared by other countries in the region. Inspired by this, many restaurants around Qatar offer this cosy seating and serve regional cuisines.
The ILoveQatar.net (ILQ) team brings you a list of places (in alphabetical order) where you can try authentic flavours in this traditional setting.
