Leaked video on accident is banned
MoI authorities arrest those posted a video of 'North Duhail' accident. All legal measures will be taken against them #MoI_Qatar
— Ministry of Interior (@MOI_QatarEn) October 26, 2015
I saw it on facebook . A water truck and a white SUV collided in a cross . It was so bad that the large truck overturned at once . The video is not available anymore - it was there illegally . Two teens died on the scene . Think twice before you cross a junction !
Visiting family only park in Doha - 2 pm too early ?
The weather is getting nicer - let us go to a park with shaded playground !Arrived there at 2 pm . It was full of sleeping workers .It is a family only park - it means men allowed only if they come with families . In this country there is very big disproportion between the genders . Men outnumber women fourfold . To protect families there are places reserved only for them . But it seems that those workers taking their afternoon nap on the playground did not expect visitors at 2 pm ... Some of the workers were actually working in the garden - they were watching us and they looked embarrassed and annoyed . . .
We felt quite uncomfortable . We come to relax and find ourselves among 20 unsupervised labourers ! In the centre of the city in a touristy area ! No boss or foreman or supervisor nearby !
Luckily in the coming 30 minutes the small playground filled with families . It was not possible to sleep anymore in that noise .Kids are running and jumping and swinging and giving out every kind of noise !
But next time I will consider the nap time of those men when choosing our outing to a park .It happens in Doha that you have to consider the presence of workers in a park reserved for families only . Some years ago we decided to get an early breakfast in a park where two men sweeping the park started to shout more and more violently to each other then finally they were fighting not only verbally . That really spoiled our picnic .
I took pictures of the playground but I am reluctant to share it with my readers . Just today I read the warning message in the facebook from the side of the interior ministry . It is about Qatar's strong privacy law .You can get jail if you share a video or photo about an accident . What about sleeping workers ? I do not really know ...

Fish prices came down
Fish prices were in the sky during the last two months . Local fishes were as expensive as salmon !
It was due to the ban on catching some species to protect them from extinct .
But as this ban ended now we can expect to buy king fish at QR15-16/kg - as large stock arrived to the Central Market recently . It was QR65-70/kg before !
The tuna and Sherie stocks are still not satisfying but fishermen hope that it will improve soon !
source
How do you prepare the kingfish ? I like it fried with pepper and lemon or I cook the traditional Hungarian soup with a lots of paprika and onion !

Will it rain today ?
It is expected that Qatar will get some rain today .I read - this article also talks
about thunder and strong wind , misty conditions .I see nothing special in the heart of
Doha - just the usual summer like day - it is above 37 C and I could not convince myself
to go for a walk today ,either .

Harry Ramsden - new fish and chip restaurant at the Pearl
Harry Ramsden is a 75 year old fish and chip restaurant from the UK . This is their first place in Qatar . It is located in Medina Central area at the Pearl .It represents the haut-cuisine of Britain . You can expect a lots of fried dishes ,burgers , salads ,smoked haddock , salmon fishcakes ,Scottish scampi . All the fish comes freshly from Britain .
It is a large place ready to seat 70 guests . It is a nice family friendly outlet with seaside chic decor !
Well , when I read the news for the first time I was not very excited " one more junk place to sell fried junks " I thought . But then seeing that everything is freshly coming from Britain I see it the other way " I might try it a day ...
It reminded me a lovely old English song ...

61,000 visas to Qataris to visit Britain - numbers in Qatar
Visiting London in summer is so much chic among the Qatari nationals . . .
In 2014 61,000 visas were issued to Qataris to visit Britain . That means one in five Qatari citizen escapes to London from the summer heat .
What I find very strange is that they escape from the city to other city not to rural area .Most of the people in Qatar lives in Doha .

Zaoq restaurant review - Ezdan Mall
Zaoq is a fine dinning restaurant that serves Pakistani dishes at Ezdan Mall .
All that I know about the Pakistani cuisine that once upon a time there was a hotel in Doha which served Pakistani dishes and I liked it very much . ( Shezan hotel was the one -pulled down since )
The place is a medium sized two story facility - We got nice seats upstairs in a booth with the possibility to cover our area with curtains for privacy . The staff was very kind - dishes arrived in reasonable time .
The cucumber in the salad was cut into julienne and served with mint dressing . The curries were all tasty and came in little metal pots - we ordered 3 different ones -but somehow they did not taste very different to me . They came in quite heavy sauce .We had them with naan bread which was good but I have already tasted much better breads in cheap eateries .
For dessert we ordered kheer - the Pakistani rice pudding . It was fabulous sweet treat !So wonderfully spiced !
We ate much more than we had planned . They just serve too large portion ! Next time I will share my dish with someone .
This place also serves specialities like brain lamb curry and quails .
It was not similar to Shezan hotels cuisine at all . Rather like Caravan restaurants curries .Everything was delicious but nothing originally new to me !
