Decent regular hotel breakfast: Restaurant @ Hotel Heiden (24. November 2017)
The Hotel Heiden is located super conveniently because it is located between two amazing restaurants – the Incantare and the Gupf. Therefore, if you are intending to dine at any of those, make sure to book your room in the hotel Heiden beforehand. Plus, the place seemed nice in terms of spa offering (unfortunately, I […]
An amazing restaurant experience and a breath-taking wine cellar: Restaurant zum Gupf (23. November 2017)
The Gupf was on my to do list for approximately 10 years – and I had never managed to pay the restaurant a visit. And finally, the time had come! I went for “Walter Klose’s Gourmet Menü (5 course menu with two main courses)” (CHF 132.00) which started with “bread, curry butter, and olives”. The […]
Nice Japanese food experience: Restaurant Mirai (21. November 2017)
I was recommended the Mirai by a couple of people already and my colleagues surprised me and took me there. Well, I must say that it is definitely a place worth visiting. I went for the “Edamame with sea salt” (2.500 BHD) as a starter which were – well, edamame. Good but definitely nothing extraordinary. […]
Still nothing I can recommend: Restaurant Persian Garden (21. November 2017)
Given its vicinity to my current working place I end up ending up here more often than I would want to. However, given I was here again, I decided to go for one of the daily specials which was “Butter Chicken Masala” (1.800 BHD) today. And frankly, I was positively surprised by the place as […]
Decent Indian food – especially for a mall: Restaurant Asha’s (20. November 2017)
I had passed by a couple of times by this place and somehow I was always a bit reluctant to actually enter it – but finally it was the time and after seating down we got served some “Indian Bread & Dips”. Not exactly sure what the dips were but the ‘bread’ was somewhat crispy […]
Surprisingly tasty French dishes: Restaurant Paul’s (19. November 2017)
As one of my colleagues is French it took us quite a while to persuade him to go to Paul’s – and given his resistance, I was expecting nothing much but I was quite positively surprised. The “bread, butter and olive spread” which were served in the beginning were definitely good. My starter though, the […]
Amazing salads in a lovely atmosphere: Restaurant Coco’s (17. November 2017)
The restaurant Coco’s had been recommended to me for salads so I decided to enjoy the “Chicken Avocado Salad with Coco’s Sauce” (3.300 BHD) and while it looked not that appealing, also due to the fact that the sauce was very dark, it was actually an amazing salad. The “Mini Chili Beef Burgers” (3.700 BHD) […]
Amazing place for day drinking: Lantern’s Lounge & Restaurant (17. November 2017)
To find something like a club or a decent bar where you can drink quite a bit isn’t all that easy in Manama. But the Lantern’s Lounge and Restaurant is actually quite a decent place to do exactly that. If you go there directly after brunch, it is half empty but it fills up quite […]
