Sold on carts, trucks, or kiosks; along the road, the night markets and food streets allow visitors to enjoy street food that is easy to consume and within the comfort of your car. A majority in Qatar accepted the concept of a food street, as it allowed easy access by driving through multiple food, dessert, snacks, and refreshment restaurants or cafes.
Qatar’s food streets are not designed like the typical food streets, they are rather a destination where visitors can enjoy more than what a food street can offer. These food destinations are also known as night markets in Qatar, where people gather to hang out, especially on weekends, and enjoy food.
