This is my story, and this is how it started :) I have had always passion to dining outside, trying different cuisines, and enjoying a nice ambience on a date. On the same track and during my career, I loved reading different publications, writing and advertising. Actually, I started my first magazine during my college years when I was only 19, and I was even able to get sponsors for the first issue ever. Combining these two passions together, I came up with an idea of establishing a dining guide magazine. As I have noticed that this lovely state Qatar lacks a proper guide to different restaurants or dining places, I translated my passion into a live publication. It's called Qatar Diner Guide (QDG). QDG is a publication read by locals and expats across the state of Qatar. It's about presenting for the reader different dining choices in a way that highlights a variety of cultural cuisines to choose among. (Dining, leisure and entertainment) . It can be found exclusively by subscritpion to the desks of business, or through newspapers, restaurants and high end hotels. Enjoy eating everyone :)
