Few years back, food festivals in Qatar served as an opportunity for residents to sample on hotel foods that we normally can’t afford or aren’t easily accessible. I still remember literally doing a hotel-hopping for bite-size food at very affordable prices. It’s also the opportunity of business establishments to introduce their products and reach out to new markets.

Here are some of the participating hotels in this year’s Qatar International Food Festival. Check out @bestlifeqatar instagram account for more updates. #pinoyblogger #qiff2017

I hope we see more of these so that people can also get to try more food items in one go, while discovering something new and exciting in the growing food industry of Qatar. We’d be looking forward to small serving at affordable rates… that would be nice to see again.
