Images from the Food Festival . The Indian man offering sweets ,a cheese sculpture ,beautifully set table .
It was so nice to see the tables set  the  artistic way  - it is a real art I think . It was nice to have some German specialties at the Kempinsky's stand ...their service was extremely nice . The W Hotel's sushi was  not so good . Though this hotel's restaurant was called  the best one in Doha ... I must say that I have had much better sushi at  other not so highly rated places - like sushi minto/oishi sushi ... the Japanese embassy's stand was disappointing as well ... when we arrived there nobody  knows anything about the food and the programs to offer ... then we were told there will be sushi /mochi making demonstrations later in the afternoon .. when returning we were offered some algae pudding .. . Take one ! -said a Japanese woman at the stand - it is free -and was smiling cynically into my face ... I would have rather payed for that treat than to see this expression on  her face .... after that I saw there were visitors at their tent and they had nothing to offer and three women were standing there and laughing at the visitors who wished to have some food at the food festival .
The festival was very big with a lots of hotels and restaurant . One is able to taste only a few thing /and what I described here was just a small part of it . Go there next year and taste the dishes on your own !
