CHIC Eats

The next act, masterfully prepared and served to our table with grace, was the Rock Shrimps Tempura, blending the classic with an authentic edge, the flavour drenched in creamy, spicy sauce is a splendid surprise. We chose a classic homemade smoked pepperoni pizza for the kids, but even that was an art revelation. The homemade spicy pepperoni lushly served; the richness of mozzarella cheese and tomato sauce left an orchestra of familiar yet memorable flavours, such that we couldn’t help but get another slice.

And then, time for the main acts. Served on a wooden tray and hot pot straight from the pan was a Paella Valenciana, an orchestra of flavours. The tasteful chorizo, beef so tender, lamb confit and chicken, all dusted with paprika and lamb jus to complement the rice that was already bursting with a zest and aroma of its own. The Whole Smoked Baby Chicken was also a delightful surprise, dramatically served beneath a clear lid with smoke swirling, then uncovered, chopped and plated for us. We were enthralled with the theatrics of the presentation, and the taste was equally remarkable.

For the finale, served chilled, playfully and artfully, the ring of Tiramisu was a satisfying sight. As we dug our spoons into the delicate mascarpone cream and coffee-bathed biscuits, our mouths frolicked on the silky soft feel and creamy velvety taste.

Since Doha is known to have a copious culinary collection, it is hard to find a restaurant that not only has its own unique character and a palatable experience that does not disappoint, but also upholds its standards and traditions. La Casa Twenty Eight’s charm lies in its attention to detail, from the most intricate piece to the fact that each savoury dish was prepared and served like a performance. The gastronomic acts may have ended for now, but we will definitely be back for more.
