Marhaba’s latest weekend brunch outing took us to the beautiful Deli Kitchen of Al Messila, A Luxury Collection Resort & Spa. The place has the space, the food and the most fashionable group of brunch people in Qatar! 

Appetisers IGIf you plan to spend your Friday at the Deli Kitchen, be sure to wear something that is not too tight in the waist, paired with a fashionable set of heels that are comfortable enough for the number of times you’d have to make around the different food stations.

Who dresses up for brunch, you’d ask? Well, these people did! The socially appropriate distance required in between customers allowed us a view of the food and the crowd. And it was impressive. But first, take the obligatory Instagram photo!

The ambiance at the Deli Kitchen will allow you minimal effort in your images. While food is the reason we came in the first place, the beautiful dishes also kept us holding our cameras and phones and clicking away.

The food stations are lined up on one side, separated by glass panels that keep the food a safe distance away from the Friday brunch crowd.

How do want to fill your plate? Slices of steaks in the centre with grilled lobster on the side? No problem. The plate will be filled with delicious meats and more.

Fancy having some Asian fare? Yes please. Dumplings come in small bamboo steamers served with soy sauce and spicy chili paste on the side. How about some Japanese sushi? How do you say no to that?

And just as we thought we can sit back and contemplate our good fortune, a wheel of cheese comes rolling by, with servings of very flavourful risotto. You can happily indulge your rice cravings but please reserve some space for the pasta, which also comes in a wheel (of cheese).

Our verdict for the Deli Kitchen Friday Brunch? Definitely a five star destination!

Brunch at the Deli Kitchen starts at 12:30 pm, from QAR250 per person. For reservations and more information about the Friday Brunch at Deli Kitchen, call 4445 0000. You can also visit our Hospitality page for more offers at Al Messila, A Luxury Collection Resort & Spa this month.
