After enjoying a delightful seafood night at IKA South American in Aleph Doha Residences, I decided to indulge in their Friday brunch last weekend. The brunch package prices were QR 249 for the all-you-can-eat feast with soft beverages and QR 369 with house beverages.( Buy one get one free on Entertainer, Urban point and my book) IKA never fails to amaze me with their culinary creations. Every dish was bursting with flavor and made with fresh ingredients. The presentation was exquisite, and the service was impeccable. The vibrant atmosphere and full house of guests added to the overall experience, making it essential to make a reservation in advance. I started off with the 🥑 🥑 Guagamole V Sesame 🥑 🥑 , which pleased my taste buds with its rich avocado flavor, refreshing touch of pomegranate, and aromatic sesame notes. The accompanying crispy tortilla chips were the perfect match. 🐟🐟The Fish Tiradito🐟🐟 was a true symphony of flavors. The combination of fresh white fish, creamy avocado, sweet potatoes, crispy South American corn chips, and crispy fried squid created a delightful and light indulgence that left me wanting more. 🍘🍙The Spicy Tuna Rolls🍘🍙 took me on a tantalizing adventure. The minced tuna, complemented by the subtle heat of the Latino-style sauce, offered an irresistible taste sensation that truly impressed. 🌮🌮The Suadero beef taco🌮🌮 was a mouthwatering delight. The tender slow-cooked beef, paired with a tantalizing sauce and a vibrant blend of cucumber and onions, was wrapped up in a taco shell, resulting in an irresistible combination. 🌽🌽The Cachapa🌽🌽 was a revelation to me. The crunchy texture and sweetness from the corn, combined with the soft pancake mixture and rich shredded cheese, along with a delightful tomato jam, created an unbelievably great dish that I couldn't get enough of. 🐓🐔The Grilled Chicken🐔🐓 had a delightful charcoal aroma and was incredibly tender and juicy. Marinated in a flavorful anticuchera sauce, it offered a harmonious blend of aromatics that left me craving more. The perfectly cooked🥩🥩 Ribeye steak🥩🥩 was a highlight of the brunch. Served with chili sauce and chimichurri sauce, the juicy steak was elevated to another level. The chef's special sauces were so delicious that I found myself wanting to devour an entire bowl of them. 🐟🐠The Chaufa de Pescado 🐟🐠featured crispy fried fish, bathed in the sweet and salty embrace of teriyaki sauce, combined with fragrant fried rice. The enticing aromas from the wok made this dish a must-try that I thoroughly enjoyed. 🍟🍟The Umami Fries🍟🍟 were a sinful treat. Freshly fried potatoes topped with a delectable sauce and cheese made for a mouthwatering combination that was hard to resist, even though they filled me up quickly. To balance out the indulgence, I savored the refreshing🥗🥗 Spring Salad🥗🥗. The combination of fresh greens and yogurt sauce provided a light and healthy accompaniment to the feast. And then the guilty part came... As the feast reached its end, a mesmerizing display of beautifully presented 🍨🎂🍰desserts🍰🧁🎂 awaited me. The harmonious combination of desserts and ice cream was not only a treat for the taste buds but also a feast for the eyes. The irresistible allure of these mouthwatering desserts made it impossible for me to resist indulging, despite knowing I might feel guilty later. Overall, my experience at IKA South American's Friday brunch was exceptional. The mouthwatering dishes, impeccable service, and lively atmosphere made it a memorable culinary adventure. I highly recommend experiencing it for yourself!
