Iftar or Suhoor
When you are planning an eating out with your loved ones at Ramadan you can take into consideration
that late night meals called Suhoor in Arabic are much cheaper than the sunset meals called Iftar .
For example this five star hotel offers a late night buffet dinner for QR 145 in a stylish tent set up for the fasting month .

Where do Muslims tend to travel for Ramadan
Travelling for the fasting month is a new trend . Travellers take in consideration the climate , the length of the days which can make the fasting easier . So the top destinations nowadays are not the Middle Eastern countries because of their hot weather , nor the European countries because of their long days in summer .
This may change in the coming five years as Ramadan will move to the cooler months .
Now let's see the most popular countries for Ramadan tourists .
1 . Malaysia
2 . Indonesia
3.Singapore
4 .Turkey
5 Brunei
6 South Africa
7 Maldives
8 Iran
9Morocco
10 Jordan

Ramadan festival at Katara
You can expect various programs and events at the Katara Cultural Village during the fasting month .
Religious lectures , Quran memorizing competitions , Play station championship - FIFA2017 -brain games ( dama , domna , kerem , sabbah ) , fun traditional games , treasure hunting .
Exhibitions by local artists , live painting , palm tree exhibition , tea exhibition , various workshops
and a lot more - discover the beautifully lit area with its indoor and outdoor activities .
SEE MORE INFO HERE
Treasure hunting is a fun game - it us usually outdoors and not long after the iftar . So you have a chance to win as there are not big crowds there . At least this is what I saw last time I visited the place .
TEA EXHIBITION sounds fun . I love teas and hope to learn about them more .
PALM TREE EXHIBITION also seems interesting to me
date palm is mentioned 20 times in the Quran
it is a staple food around here - or at least it is used to be
still a much respected tree here decorating , parks , promenades , yards

Ruman restaurant - Souq Wakrah - review
It was a Friday afternoon that we decided to visit this restaurant . I had bought coupons and was very curious to see this place and taste their dishes .
We arrived around 5 pm . We were shocked to see that we were the only customers . The restaurant is situated inside the Souq not at the seafront . There was a tree and some chairs in front of the restaurant and that looked inviting . However we were afraid from the flies and decided to go in . It was a charming Indian interior in rustic style . At first glance I found it lovely until I noticed those paintings in large baroque frames . They looked awful and spoilt all the charm of pure village home .
The second shock came when we learnt they had no toilet we had to go outside nearly to the sea shore the find one !
We had to wait minimum 20 minutes though we were the only customers . My butter chicken was tasty but stale . The rice as well . I got stomach ache at once . My husband had mutton and he found it mediocre . Our son was the happiest among us he liked their hamburgers very much .
Long story short - I had this "deja vue " or " deja mangee" feel ... yes this is the old Caravan restaurant's style dishes ! It reminded me that place very much !
That old restaurant that burnt down some years ago at the Ramada junction . And officially they never reopened ! I remember then many people told about them " jack of all trades but master of nothing " - and really this restaurant offered dishes from India , China , Nepal .
My greatest concern about their cuisine was that it was not fresh at all .!
We had the dessert outside under a tree . The sea smell reached this terrace , the heat was bearable - we were sitting and relaxing there watching the small clouds in the blue sky . It was nice and memorable . What a luck that nobody can put baroque paintings on the sky - i thought . If one day I return then it will be for these chairs and tree and the memory of the sky .
If I long for Indian flavours in the future I would choose rather Zaoq or Black pepper .
