The MICHELIN Guide announced today that it is expanding its renowned
culinary reviews to Doha, Qatar. The prestigious Guide revealed that its
independent, anonymous inspectors have been thoroughly exploring Doha in
preparation for selecting the city’s most outstanding dining venues. The
selection will showcase the best of Doha’s dining scene and spotlight its
talented chefs and teams, embracing their passion, creativity, and respect for
local culinary traditions.

“These past few years, our
MICHELIN inspectors have been keeping a watchful eye on Doha’s culinary
evolution and continue to relish the wonderful diversity that this fast-paced
city has to offer.” Explained Gwendal Poullennec, International Director
of the MICHELIN Guides. “From the continually changing skyline of
gravity-defying hotels to the rich array of restaurants representing cuisines
from all continents, they have comprehensively reviewed the nation’s top
eateries. Whether enjoying coffee on the Corniche, wandering around The Pearl,
having lunch by the waterside in Lusail, or dining after a mesmerizing visit to
the Museum of Islamic Art or in the dynamic, regenerated Msheireb Downtown
Doha, our inspectors have truly experienced it all.”

“Middle Eastern, Japanese,
Peruvian, or fused Nikkei style, Indian and Chinese to name a few, the choice
here is endless and doubtlessly certain to appeal to the avid global
gastronomic traveler looking for a memorable culinary experience.” Mr. Poullennec added.

MICHELIN anonymous
inspectors have been fascinated by Qatar’s azure-blue waters, stunning sea
sculptures and unmissable Arabian Peninsula sunsets, while enjoying the
capital’s global spectrum and caring service, which they confirmed is a
testament to cosmopolitan capital.

The arrival of the MICHELIN
Guide in Doha is supported by Qatar Tourism (QT), whose, Chairman, His
Excellency Saad Bin Ali Al Kharji said: “The arrival of the MICHELIN Guide
in Doha underscores Qatar’s standing as a rapidly emerging global culinary
destination. “It will enable travelers to better explore the breadth of
our culinary and hospitality options, helping to ensure that they have
well-rounded stays with memorable experiences. This inclusion is also a tribute
to the strong cadre of culinary talent that Doha has attracted, who see in our
capital and its ambitions a commitment to luxury and quality, which enables
their professional creativity and advancement.”
