Oasis Chinese Restaurant

Phone number for reservation: 4442-4424
Open from 18:00 daily

Last visits: 4 June 2016, dinner
Taste: 5/5
Cost performance: 5/5 (the cheapest drought beer in town)
Location: next to Sharq Village & Spa, inside Oasis Beach Club
Dress Code: Long pants and shoes

Oasis Chinese Restaurant is my favorite restaurant in Qatar.
Mixed Noodle Soup, Fried Dumpling and drought beer are my regular.
Another yummy ones are Chinese Cabbage Garlic Sauce and Mixed Chow Mien.
But the star of the restaurant is the Fried Dumpling, sometime people will get disappointed when it is not available due to sold-out, or damaged fry pan :p (it happened!)

Located in a hidden place, inside Oasis Beach Club, behind the ruin and it cannot be seen from the main road.

It is open only for dinner from 18:00-23:00, and closed during month of Ramadan.

Strangely it strongly enforces dress code, for men, shorts and non-shoes are not allowed.
I, myself, once was declined to enter the restaurant wearing short pants, and I witnessed many people being turned down for the same reason!

It has daily live performance, the same Filipino couple of one singer and one instrument player since many years ago. A bit noisy for group of friends who want to chat.

It is extremely popular place for Japanese expats and other Asian.

Another unique scene is you can see people in traditional moslem dress smoking and drinking beer here, the only legal place in Qatar you can find this scene.
And I think the only non-hotel place serves legally alcoholic drink in Qatar.

In my visit early June 2016, just one day before they closed for Ramadan, most of the food were not available.
For the first time, we ordered Italian Pizza, since one of us got informed the pizza was good.
But, it was so so... home made feel though.

Some items ordered previously:
- Fried Dumpling --> everyone favourite
