If you’re looking for a proper evening out in Manama, one that moves from a stunning dinner to a long, unhurried night with good shisha and even better company; Wyndham Garden Manama has quietly become one of the best places to do exactly that.

VIA BRASIL

For anyone curious about experiencing a proper Brazilian churrasco, Via Brasil remains one of the best places in the city to start, and for returning guests, its comeback feels well worth the wait. Arrive with an appetite, settle into the lively yet welcoming dining room, and prepare for a steady parade of premium cuts carved tableside in the traditional rodízio style. It’s theatrical, it’s generous, and it delivers on every promise the menu makes. Think fire-kissed meats with a satisfying char, kept moving through the room by attentive passadores who seem to read your appetite better than you do.

What’s new this time around is the addition of the Shisha Lounge. A chic, laid-back extension of the restaurant that earns its own visit. Lounge into one of the plush seats after dinner, pick from a curated selection of shisha flavours, and let the evening stretch out at exactly the pace you need. It’s a brilliant wind-down space, and it lifts the whole Via Brasil experience from dinner to a full night out.

JASHAN BY CHEF SURESH PILLAI

Bold, beautiful Indian food with serious technique behind it, Jashan has quietly become one of the most compelling dining rooms in the city, and the Thali promotion is the smartest way in. Chef Suresh Pillai’s kitchen doesn’t do half measures: expect vivid, layered flavours, thoughtful regional variety, and that rare combination of polish and comfort that makes a meal feel both special and familiar.

 The Thali itself arrives as a satisfying spread of dishes, different textures, different regional influences, the kind of combination that keeps surprising you right through to the last bite. It’s fab value for the quality on the plate, and it works just as well for a long, relaxed lunch as it does for an early dinner before you head next door for shisha.

Jollibee is preparing to open its newest branch at City Centre Bahrain, marking another expansion for one of the world’s most recognizable fast food brands in the Kingdom. The upcoming location will add to the company’s growing footprint in Bahrain as demand for international dining brands continues to rise across the country’s retail and lifestyle destinations.

Jollibee’s journey began in 1978 as a small ice cream business before eventually expanding into burgers, fried chicken, spaghetti, and other menu items that became fan favorites across multiple markets. Over the decades, the brand transformed into a global fast food powerhouse known for its signature Chickenjoy meals, sweet-style spaghetti, burgers, and family-focused dining experience.

Today, Jollibee operates more than 5,000 branches worldwide across Asia, the Middle East, North America, Europe, and other international markets. Its expansion strategy has helped the company build a strong international customer base while continuing to grow in regions with large communities already familiar with the brand.

In Bahrain, Jollibee Bahrain has already established a loyal following, attracting customers looking for its well-known menu offerings and casual dining atmosphere. The upcoming City Centre Bahrain branch is expected to strengthen the brand’s accessibility for shoppers, families, and visitors at one of the Kingdom’s busiest retail destinations.

The new opening also reflects Bahrain’s continuously expanding food and beverage sector, with global restaurant brands continuing to invest in new locations across the Kingdom. As Bahrain’s dining scene keeps evolving, major international names remain focused on increasing their presence in high-traffic commercial hubs and shopping centers.
