[Plan this experience]() [Explore the story]() Cost **≈ QAR 115 / person** Time to allow **Allow 60–90 minutes** Place **Barahat Msheireb** 01 / The experience ### Saasna, Msheireb $$ Estimated food per person Qatari Majboos gives a Saasna meal a good centre: spiced rice with your chosen meat or seafood, with accompaniments to share around the table. Samosas or the Saasna salad can come first, and date ice cream offers a distinctly local finish. The restaurant’s cooking is connected to Sheikha Ahmed Al Meer and her book The Art of Qatari Cooking. Dishes such as madrouba and margoog bring more of that home-style repertoire into the menu. It is an inviting place to explore Qatari food over a substantial lunch, with enough variety for a table choosing several dishes together. Barahat Msheireb supplies the setting. The arcade and square put Saasna among the neighbourhood’s contemporary streets, with the heritage houses and [Souq Waqif]() nearby. An outdoor table can make lunch part of a longer afternoon in the district when the weather suits. From a Msheireb hotel, dinner here can also be a simple evening close to your base. ![Cream dining room, upholstered chairs and carved mirrored sideboard at Saasna]() Restaurants **Saasna, Msheireb** Doha and Lusail Saasna’s sheltered arcade and square-facing entrance in Msheireb Cream dining room, upholstered chairs and carved mirrored sideboard at Saasna Spiced rice main, salad and accompaniments at Saasna 04 / Before you go ### Plan your visit #### Food budget & menu ≈ QAR 115 per person for food.
