Welcome to the Wedge

Starting out as an idea to eat and document 365 cheeses in a very long year, Life on the Wedge has grown to become one of the must-read food blogs in Qatar and the region.

A writer, editor, blogger, traveler, foodie and social communications expert, her blog, Life on the Wedge is a fearless and (rare) unbiased look at the food and travel scene in Qatar and beyond.

You’ve heard this a million times before, but all views are her own, even if you don’t agree with them.

Rachel can be reached at info@taf3eel.com for collaborations, media inquiries and bad puns.

Breakfast of champions... I was a bit of a hermit this weekend but always manage to get out for a good breakfast. The Meesh Breakfast @meeshcafedoha is still one of the best deals in town - QR50 for all of this. Proof that good food doesn’t always have to cost a fortune. . . . . . #forbestravelguide #foodspotting #comfortfood #breakfast #breakfastofchampions #fullenglish #cafeculture #breakfastclub #sundayfunday #afterthestorm #ihgfoodie #foodilysm #onmyplate #baconandeggs #sunnysideup #wheretoeat #lifeonthewedge #dohafoodies #qatarbloggers #wheretoeat #wheretofindme #coffee_time #breakfasttime

Views for days... This could possibly be the best view of Doha - from the terrace @idambyalainducasse One of the great foodie experiences in this city is lunch or dinner (and now afternoon tea) at this restaurant then coffee on the terrace. Insider tip - the terrace opens again in November. . . . . . . #foodspotting #viewsfordays #theviewfromhere #dohaqatar #welivetoexplore #visitqatar #qatarlife #sunset_pics #chasinglight #travellist #lppathfinders #travellocal #forbestravelguide #theuprootedrose #travelwell #postcardplaces #meettheworld #lifeonthewedge #dinnerwithaview #travelguide #culturetrip #traveloften #travelbook #seemydoha #qatarairways #qatarbloggers #skyline #beautifuldestinations

Steak me home... Another look at the new restaurant I can stop talking about - @lamardoha This is Lomo Saltado - basically steak and potatoes Peruvian style. But it’s more than that - cumin, chilli, tomatoes and vinegar with a perfectly medium rare steak make for a plate full of goodness. Check my instastories highlights for the rest of the menu. The restaurant opens to the public Sunday. I was asked a lot about pricing yesterday and while it’s Doha, the prices were most dishes were very reasonable - From QR45 for starters. Mains around QR140 (there is a tomahawk steak for QR500 but that’s to share). . . . . . #foodspotting #comfortfood #newrestaurant #peruvianfood #lomosaltado #steakandpotatoes #fusionfood #southamericanfood #foodilysm #foodiefriday #lifeonthewedge #qatarbloggers #peruviancuisine #gastonacurio #ihgfoodie #sneakpeek #wheretoeat #whatsonmyplate #intercontinentallife #onmyplate #dohafoodies #beautifulcuisines #devourpower

Sneak peek... The hotly anticipated @lamardoha by @gastonacurio opens to the public on Sunday and I had a chance to sample the menu last night. Doha’s first Peruvian restaurant, I have to say the flavors are surprising and unique. Spicy and a little salty with a kick of lime - also taking in influences from Spain, China and Japan. This Arroz Con Mariscos is a great example of some of the dishes, like a Peruvian paella it’s a seafood mix (check out that lush Canadian lobster) with a firm hit of chilli and Parmesan cheese (yaaaas). For more of my exclusive and delicious experience at La Mar (including one of the most stunning dining rooms in Doha) @intercontinentaldoha check my instastories today. This will be a restaurant that will shake up the dining scene in Doha. PS @mankodoha upstairs opens in a couple of weeks - expect to spend a lot of time on its terrace this winter. . . . . . . #foodspotting #newrestaurant #peruvianfood #nikkeicuisine #peruvian #arroz #sneakpeek #beautifulcuisines #dohafoodies #eatingout #lifeonthewedge #ihgfoodie #whatsonmyplate #gastonacurio #celebritychef #wheretoeat #southamericanfood #qatarbloggers #seafoodfeast #spicyfood #foodiesofinstagram #foodilysm #forbestravelguide #wheretogo #tastethisnext #canadianlobster

Taco Tuesday done right... Last night we were treated to a taste of Qatar’s newest restaurant - @mayadoha by @chefrichardsandoval Fresh, authentic Mexican food served up @kempinskidoha The restaurant won’t open for another month but last night was a chance to sample the menu which included lamb barbecoa, traditional guacamole and of course these fish tacos. A lot of like and look forward to in November. . . . . . #foodspotting #mexicanfood #tacos #fishtacos #comfortfood #richardsandoval #newrestaurant #foodilysm #taco #tacotuesday #dohafoodies #dohaqatar #qatarbloggers #onmyplate #tasteofmexico #avocadolife #eatfresh #kempinski #eattherainbow #mytablesituation #forkfeed #beautifulcuisines #devourpower #foodgawker #tacosforlife #devourpower

Paradise found.. This #traveltuesday is dedicated to one of the most quirky places I have eaten - @therockzanzibar Perched on a rocky outcrop just off a beautiful beach, you can walk or wade to the restaurant at high hide or grab a fishing boat at high tide. Where is the quirkiest place you have eaten a meal? . . . . . #beautifuldestinations #beautifulcuisines #zanzibar #therockzanzibar #zanzibarisland #qatarbloggers #traveldeeper #theviewfromhere #exploretocreate #visitzanzibar #forbestravelguide #travelingislife #lifeonthewedge #travelnowlifelater #dametraveler #welltravelled #welivetoexplore #holdyourmoments #passportready #culturetrip #zanzibarlife #ipulledoverforthis #tlpicks #lonelyplanet

Up in my grill... This was not your usual Saturday BBQ. These grilled prawns with arabic spices were one of the recipes we learned from @leroux.damien @leo_gillen at the @idambyalainducasse on the weekend. I will never cook my prawns another way again! By the way it was barbecued I one of those #biggreenegg grills - now I need one! . . . . . #foodspotting #qatarbloggers #lifeonthewedge #mastclass #michelinstar #foodieexperience #arabicfood #grilled #alainducasse #foodilysm #bbq #foodiefinds #dohafoodies #charcoalgrill #eatguide #eatfamous #cookingclass #wheretofindme #wheretoeat #qatarrestaurants #dohaqatar #freshoffthegrill #spicyfood #mondayvibes

Rice to see you.. The new breakfast menu @mamarozieqa is full of Malaysian and Indonesian favorites like This nasi Lemak. The perfect weekend breakfast. But get there early - many dishes sell out before 10am! . . . . . . #qatarbloggers #lifeonthewedge #nasilemak #malaysianfood #malaysianbreakfast #forbestravelguide #dohafoodies #qatarbloggers #eattheworld #breakfastideas #eatingwell #beautifulcuisines #foodilysm #sundaybreakfast #spicyfood #asianbreakfast #foodspotting #eatbreakfast #comfortfood #dohaqatar #devourpower #onmyplate #truecook #wheretoeat

Masterclass... This is me about to devour a delicate dish of fish cooked with dates and grapefruit. This morsel was created by @leroux.damien and @leo_gillen at a masterclass held @idambyalainducasse this weekend. The classes are held twice a month in the kitchen if the haute cuisine restaurant - we learned to cook five fish dishes all incorporating Arabic slice. A very special and surprising experience for this foodie. Classes are QR500 and include tastings, an apron and a small box of goodies when you leave. . . . . . #qatarbloggers #seemydoha #lifeonthewedge #forbestravelguide #traveldeeper #hautecuisines #beautifulcuisine #michelinstar #arabicfood #alainducasse #cookingclass #masterclass #dohafoodies #foodilysm #eattheworld #onmyplate #atmytable #wheretoeat #lifeonthewedge #qatarbloggers #foodie_features #fishfordinner #visitqatar

Light the way.. The stunning @miaqatar after dark...perhaps the best known attraction in Doha and one of the most unique....love this building. . . . . . #postcardplaces #visitqatar #qatarairways #dohaqatar #theviewfromhere #traveldeeper #beautifuldestinations #travelnowlifelater #travelpassport #travelpassion #travelphotooftheday #travelwithlove #forbestravelguide #lifeonthewedge #culturetrip #seemydoha #qatarbloggers #passionpassport #architecturephotography #architecture_hunter #qatarliving #visitdoha

All the things... It’s the weekend and frankly I’m ready for it and all the delicious things it will bring. Hoping it will involve return visit to @clawbbqdoha for this juicy shrimp po boy (and everything else on the menu). What are your plans? . . . . . #hautecuisines #weekendvibes #clawbbq #qatarliving #foodilysm #poboy #crabboil #wheretogo #wheretoeat #dohafoodies #newrestaurant #qatarbloggers #lifeonthewedge #thirstythursday #foodiechats #eattheworld #onthetable #theviewfromhere #dohaqatar #mytablesituation #foodwithfriends #sportsbar #sandwichlover #devourpower

Taco time... The humble taco is one of the food world’s most perfect inventions because: 🌮 you can eat them anytime 🌮 you can fill them with anything 🌮 you can eat with one hand 🌮 you can always rely on them So these hamachi tacos at the Saturday #momosan brunch @morimotodoha were pretty much my idea of heaven... . . . #hautecuisines #qatarbloggers #lifeonthewedge #taco #tacotime #morimoto #fusionfood #tacotuesday #eattacos #japanesefood #beautifulcuisines #beautifulhotels #foodiesofinstagram #foodilysm #dohafoodies #postcardplaces #wheretoeat #onmyplate #flatlayfood #dohaqatar #mondrian #weekendbrunch #holdyourmoments #saturdaybrunch #fishtacos #wheretonext
