    The third “Doha Taste and Fun Festival” opened to the public at the Doha Exhibition Center yesterday evening, offering trimmed-down portions of food from restaurants and hotels across Qatar for prices between 5-15 QAR. 

    The family-friendly food festival runs through February 11, opening at 12pm today and Saturday, and starting an hour later at 1pm on Friday.

    Festivities draw to a close nightly at 10:30pm, and include cooking demonstrations at the Japanese Embassy booth, a play area for kids, and a stage that will feature musical performances. 

    Cuisines on offer range from Indian, Greek, Mexican, American and Turkish. Most major hotels in Doha are participating, featuring bite-size portions from their high-end restaurants. And there’s even a few restaurants making the trek from the Industrial Area.

    Have you been, or are you going? What do you think of this third round?
