### Zaatar w Zeit, The Pearl

    $  Estimated food per person   Lebanese

A zaatar mankousheh is an inexpensive place to begin at Zaatar w Zeit. The herb-and-sesame topping goes onto baked flatbread, while jebneh brings cheese into the same simple format. Half-zaatar, half-cheese lets you try both in one order.

For a larger meal, the wraps include chicken shawarma, taouk and kafta. Eggs and a halloumi pan give breakfast another direction, with salads and sides available to fill out the table. The range makes the restaurant handy when some people want a small bread order and others are ready for lunch.

[The Pearl](<https://above.guide/qatar-f1/things-to-do/the-pearl-porto-arabia>)  branch is near  [Qanat Quartier](<https://above.guide/qatar-f1/things-to-do/the-pearl-porto-arabia>) , with arched frontage and street-side outdoor seating. Inside, wood tables and high seating sit beneath large framed pictures. It fits well before or after a canal walk, with the restaurant supplying a casual meal in the same part of the island.

Zaatar costs QAR 9 and jebneh QAR 18 on the Qatar menu. Wraps, sides and drinks increase the order from there. The restaurant’s outdoor tables are street-side, with canal views along the walk nearby.

#### When to go

The branch opens 24 hours, but breakfast and kitchen service may have shorter hours. Ask about race-week service and last food orders before planning a late meal.

Allow 45–75 minutes for a meal, or 30–45 minutes for a tea-and-snack stop, plus queues and both journeys.

#### Getting there

Malaga Way /  [The Pearl](<https://above.guide/qatar-f1/things-to-do/the-pearl-porto-arabia>) ,  [Qanat Quartier](<https://above.guide/qatar-f1/things-to-do/the-pearl-porto-arabia>)  area

Use  [the Pearl](<https://above.guide/qatar-f1/things-to-do/the-pearl-porto-arabia>)  branch near  [Qanat Quartier](<https://above.guide/qatar-f1/things-to-do/the-pearl-porto-arabia>)  on Malaga Way. A licensed taxi can use the agreed restaurant-side drop-off; it is not a canal berth. For rail, take the Red Line to Legtaifiya and a separate local car to  [The Pearl](<https://above.guide/qatar-f1/things-to-do/the-pearl-porto-arabia>) . From a Lusail hotel use the actual hotel-to-restaurant road route rather than assuming a direct tram or circuit shuttle. Allow roughly 15–30 minutes for a local Pearl/Lusail connection or 35–60 minutes from central Doha including the approach.

#### Before you book

The official branch contacts are +974 4482 0213 and +974 3369 9466. Specify  [The Pearl](<https://above.guide/qatar-f1/things-to-do/the-pearl-porto-arabia>) , not  [Souq Waqif](<https://above.guide/qatar-f1/things-to-do/souq-waqif-and-falcon-souq>)  or another branch, and obtain the desired meal window, current menu, seating and any group arrangement. Individual menu prices do not establish a fixed total or kitchen availability.

[Venue details & contact](<https://zaatarwzeit.net/QA/locations>)

The zaatar mixture contains sesame; bread contains wheat, and cheese, labneh and many sauces contain dairy. Nuts and egg appear in other dishes. Ask about the exact recipe, vegan substitutions and shared preparation.

#### Your return journey

Return to the same agreed road-accessible pickup for a taxi to the hotel, or take a local car to Legtaifiya for an operating Red Line service. Include that last leg before the final train. After a late meal use a direct licensed car; do not rely on an unannounced race-week rail extension or walk along vehicle-only access roads.

#### Accessibility

Ask for the step-free street-to-door approach, a suitable ordinary-height table instead of a high stool, and toilet access. Canal walks and bridges have separate gradients and surfaces; a restaurant seat does not establish an accessible loop through the whole district.
