#balaleet

Equal parts sweet and salty, balaleet is the true breakfast of champions. Toasted, buttery noodles seasoned with rosewater, saffron, and cardamom get topped with a plant-based omelette for an unforgettable morning meal.

Presenting my bad photography skills 😆; but I loved the food and the ambience 😌 at this cafe called "Desert Rose" in the @nmoqatar premises. . I assume the name of the cafe is derived from the main concept of the museum's architectural design by French architect Jean Nouvel who was inspired to design the museum by the shape of the desert rose, a flower-like formation that occurs in the Gulf region. . My friends and I were lucky enough to get inside the museum before it became crowded and also we reached Qatar the next day the museum opened for the public. All In all, we were the lucky ones 😆. . Now talking about the food 😋 ; the first picture: I had #balaleet a traditional dish eaten commonly all over #GCC/🇰🇼 and followed by #paratha and #keema 🇮🇳 😁 cause I like to keep things balanced 🇰🇼🇮🇳. And the last picture is the museum 💁. . #scrumptiousthoughts #thoughts #foodandthoughts #gcc #traveller #happinessgalore #arab #travelog #instagram #qatarnationalmuseum #qatar🇶🇦 #note8photography #rose #musing #kuwait #desertrose #museum #architecture #instafood https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvy5QnphbzR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8l5ns3st9bcn
