Whether you fancy a dine-in moment or want to grab a bite to eat from a street vendor, there’s no better place to experience Qatar’s food than Souq Waqif. Here you can find local women selling everything from stuffed vine leaves and meat stews to delish sweet dumplings.<\/p>\n
If you fancy an authentic dine-in experience with traditional floor style seating, you’ll find that at Bander Aden!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Make sure you also end the day with a hearty regag paired with karak tea freshly prepared in front of you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image_block","image":{"ID":2439,"id":2439,"title":"ED-WAKIF-FILM-6436","filename":"ED-WAKIF-FILM-6436.jpg","filesize":198296,"url":"https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/12141434\/ED-WAKIF-FILM-6436.jpg","link":"https:\/\/lovin.co\/doha\/en\/latest\/6-fun-activities-you-must-try-at-souq-waqif\/attachment\/ed-wakif-film-6436\/","alt":"","author":"3904","description":"","caption":"","name":"ed-wakif-film-6436","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":2433,"date":"2022-10-12 11:14:34","modified":"2022-10-12 11:14:34","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/lovin.co\/doha\/en\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":900,"height":600,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/12141434\/ED-WAKIF-FILM-6436-small.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/12141434\/ED-WAKIF-FILM-6436-medium.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/12141434\/ED-WAKIF-FILM-6436-768x512.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":512,"large":"https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/12141434\/ED-WAKIF-FILM-6436-large.jpg","large-width":900,"large-height":600,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/12141434\/ED-WAKIF-FILM-6436.jpg","1536x1536-width":900,"1536x1536-height":600,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/12141434\/ED-WAKIF-FILM-6436.jpg","2048x2048-width":900,"2048x2048-height":600,"small":"https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/12141434\/ED-WAKIF-FILM-6436-230x153.jpg","small-width":120,"small-height":80,"custom-size":"https:\/\/cdn.lovin.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2022\/10\/12141434\/ED-WAKIF-FILM-6436.jpg","custom-size-width":300,"custom-size-height":200}},"image_caption":""}],"legacy_image":"","legacy_full_image":"","type_of_video":"Self Hosted","lovin_video_link":false,"lovin_video_link_webm":false,"video_thumbnail":false,"disable_lovin_hearts":false,"lovin_heart_title":"","show_sponsor":false,"sponsor_name_copy":"","sponsor_image":false,"sponsor_name":"","sponsor_content":"","sponsor_website":"","sponsor_facebook":"","sponsor_twitter":"","sponsor_instagram":"","enable_reveal_feature":false,"reveal_image":false,"featured_for_app":false,"legacy_meta_tags":"","is_guest_user":false,"episode_number":"","embed_code":"","episode_introduction":""},"image_feature":null,"author_name":"Farah Abdelkarim","yoast_head":"\n
