Vacations to France

I'm leaving Oman for a short week of vacation in France. I'll go to Paris and in Bretagne to some friends and family.


So I won't blog untill June 2nd. see you soon !

Beach football

This is what main Muscat beach look like in the evening :


The whole beach is suddently transformed in a mass of improvised football fields. If you want to join a game people will usually welcome you. But I've to say it has becomen very difficult to play football with this temperature for me, especially when you have to run in the sand !

D'arcys kitchen

A classic in Muscat. This restaurant serve simple but good quality food. it is located just near the sheraton resort complex (shati Qurm). The most appreciable falicity is the terrasse, which is always full of people (mainly expat people) when it is not too hot (i.e. from november to mars). prices are around 2,5 Ryals.


A good address when you want to eat a excellent club sandwitch, sitting outside, reading some gutter press (available for consultation for free in the restaurant)...

Jade & Garden : Sushi bar

I realise that I've not spoken much about the restaurants of Muscat. So I've decided to fix this and give you some good addresses in Muscat (from my point of view).


If you like sushi, I recommand you the "Jade & Garden" at the Sheraton Qurum Resort.
Every thursday evening, there is a "all you can eat" sushi bar - with excellent and fresh sushis, sashimis, soups, makis ... And good point also is that the restaurant serves alcohol (I don't recommend you wine by the glass however, but beer is excellent).


Prices are bit expensive : 8,5 Ryals + tax per person. On Wednesday evening, you have also a Seafood "all you can eat" buffet (15 Ryals + tax per person), and on Tuesday evening you have a Asian buffet for 7Ryals per person. But I did not test yet these buffets.
