Sometimes i see Ethiopian restaurant here in dc but i never taste of their food. Last october i went to bahrain and someone special took me to the concord hotel in manama and we were in the millennium ethiopian restaurant.
Damn fellas i had the best food in my life.
After we had our lunch this special person of mine ordered ethiopian coffee and shisha. I see the traditional coffee ceremony of ethiopians right infront of my eyes. very interesting and artistic.
Believe it or not since then i start to plan a trip to ethiopia.
Favorite Dish: Kitfo and Tibs are the best dish for not vegeterian. But beyaynetu is very great for diet and 100% for vegeterians.

My favorite place to eat was this small, intimate Italian resturaunt located right on the side of the famous Gulf Hotel, its like the next street over by a day care and other small resturaunts that i didnt get a chance to indulge in. But this Italian resturaunt was the best! pricing was average, service was great, and food was excellent. Atsmophere was great as well. Not too crowded when i went. The only thing i didnt like was the white and chocolate cake, just not my cup of tea, but there are many other selections to delight your taste buds with
Favorite Dish: fetticini alredo, and the first thing on the appetizer list, its sounds a bit weird but worth trying.!

I've lived in Bahrain for a year and I can tell you that if you are eating fast food or from an american food chain i.e. Chili's etc... you are wrong. There are so many good resturants in the city. Some of my favorites are....Sushi at Sato's in the Gulf Hotel, Camelots...Jim is great!, Crumbs, Cafe Lilou's, the middle eastern for the cheapest and good tasting steaks, Coco's, Fusions, Upstairs/downstairs, and any of the buffets on friday which equal three hours of eating and drinking....the list could go on and on. Been to Ric's Country Kitchen and wasn't a fan but alot of people like it. The prices are anywhere from 2-5bd up to 10-15bd a person but you won't be disappointed.

Although there are tons of HRC's around the world it really suprised me that there would be one in Manama. The food was great the atmosphere was great. A little touch of home when so far away!
Favorite Dish: Gotta go for the BBQ sandwich and slaw.

Who would have thought you can find such excellent Chinese cuisine in the Persian Gulf? The food is first quality and at least as good as the big Hong Kong restaurants. The atmosphere is very pleasant and the decoration is very nice. In the past, we used to stop in Dubai on our way to South East Asia; Now we stop in Bahrein especially for this restaurant!

Excellent local, seafood and continental food served with a never ending glass of champagne. I have been there 3 times and have not sampled everything yet. Nice trio of Filipino girls singing, they take requests and will attempt just about any song. Brunch is served on the top floor with 360 degree views of Bahrain. Reservations needed most of the time.
Favorite Dish: I always have a fresh pasta dish made with garlic, mushrooms and scallops from the pasta station.

Asian/ Polynesian style restruant with good food and excellent service. A bit pricey. Semi formal dress is encouraged but not required. Make sure you order a side. Portions can be small and come with only one thing on the plate.
Favorite Dish: I tried the beef flambe pretty good.

Western style restraunt with huge portions. Great food. Staff is friendly. Good chance on chatting with Ric a retired US military member who opened various restraunts in the middle east to serve his boys some good ol country cooking when theyre away from home.
Favorite Dish: Country Fried Steak is excellent, i believe on wednesdays they have all you can eat prawns, served about 12 different ways pretty good.

I guess it some kind of lebanese place, but all they serve is streak, the best steak. Portions are huge, chicken and prawns are excellent too. Its a hole in the wall from the outside but the inside is nice and food is good. Meal comes with complimentary glass of wine
Favorite Dish: Chateau Briand, this comes with steak, chicken, prawns, vegetables, mash potatoes, fries so much food.
