Belgian Mussels & Beer Night

Craving mussels? This new Belgian mussels and beer night is a perfect spot to enjoy a Thursday night out in Bahrain.

I like to stay fit & healthy, so I eat lots of mussels.

And when it’s unlimited mussels night at one of my favourite hotels, I run jump skip hop and skedaddle right on over!

Vida Bahrain, the newest outpost of the gorgeous Dubai hotel group, has opened up in Marassi and this stunning hotel offers a Belgian night of my gluttonous dreams…

Thursday nights is the Bottomless Moules Frites (BD 9) evening in their The Bistro by Origins, plus 10% off Belgian beer (Hoegaarden!)

There are five sauces to choose from and though I did love the classic white wine sauce, the winner was the Thai. Made with homemade red curry sauce and coconut cream, it’s an addictive option you’ll be glad to slurp up.

If you’re a fan of mussels and enjoy a good beer, this is the place to try out.

Thank you Vida Bahrain for letting me get my mussels without having to go to the gym!
