BEST BITES: Megu, The Pearl in Qatar

For my 22nd Birthday, I got to celebrate at a lovely contemporary Japanese restaurant, with the loveliest company! The place was mostly empty, which is a total surprise, because the food is delicious and the ambience is great! They serve some delicious beef skewers and salads! The pricing was expensive, but then again this is a fancy dining restaurant for a special occasion with a special someone.

They also have a nice balcony seating -romantic & perfect for this time of year!
