Tea Forte is available at The Nut Tree in Baitak tower. Tea Forte is a well known brand (if there was ever such a thing as a high end tea, it is this) I thought it was only available at Tea Art shop in AlMuthanna. Both shops are for the same owner.

Update:

And this is a shirt for the same offer to go along with the badges. Not sure though who is supposed to wear it, but I’m guessing it’s for employees at the NBK kiosks in malls.

Just came from Aberdeen, finally home… sweet home.

I went for the first time yesterday and I loved it. It has this beautiful Kuwaiti energy all around it and unlike any of the other exhibitions I attended, all of the attending people are actually happy to be there. The attendants were from all age groups, old men and women on wheelchairs and walking sticks, and girls all in their best Eid attires.

The booths were all nicely set. Lots of creative ideas, and some not so creative ones. Lots of maids doing their backstage work.. well don’t get me wrong, lots and lots of booths were run by their Kuwaiti owners, but some of them were a joke, but they were little and far in between.

I’m proud of them. I couldn’t take many pictures coz there were lots of people on thursday and it was hard to take pictures.

½ cream milk was nice enough share some of the pictures he took while at P2Bk today. These are some random pictures of the place and the booths.

After having lunch at Maki we decided it’s time for a great dessert, and the white chocolate blondie was so fitting to our post Maki mood, (Speaking of Maki, did you notice how Maki’s menu has more deep-fried mayo-covered and cheese-sprinkled dishes than any of the fast food joints? that’s not the point of the post)

The white chocolate blondie is a dessert available in Applebee’s, it’s basically a white chocolate cake with bits of walnuts in it, it’s chewy and a brownie like in texture, topped with a vanilla ice cream scoop and white buttery maple syrup sauce, all presented in a hot skillet. It’s thick, delicious, filling and Sweet and is guaranteed to ruin your figure in seconds so don’t attempt it if your health matters at all. (and I digress again).

The thing is, it has changed, and isn’t the same anymore. They changed the recipe, it was a great disappointment. We let the manager know that we hated it. He was a nice guy and he admitted that he was worried when he knew we were here just for the blondie, coz he had many blondie regulars over the past couple of weeks complain about the sudden change in the recipe. So yeah, he told us he’s going to let their american suppliers know about the negative feed back and all.

The White Chocolate Blondie in it’s heydays was the best dessert anyone could have in Kuwait!

I was in Al Jabriya earlier today and happened to pass by the new Early Bird branch. I saw the owner, Bianca, outside and she told me the opening is on Monday and that it’ll have the same working hours as the one in Fahaheel; Monday to Saturday from 5am to 3pm and off on sundays.

It’s in Al Jabriyah near Champion’s Gym. Here is their location on map.

Aramex just sent me an email telling that they have changed their pricing structure and they began with the heavy packages which weight above 10kgs they will offer 30% discount on the total shipping charges, the question is what if I got lets say 3 packages and their total weight is above 10kgs? do I get a discount? or it has to be single package?

Was reading Nemo’s blog and came across this, sounds good with the 2-4 Mbps for only 235 KD/yr they said it depends on the line it self if i can handle up to 4 Mbps. If you are wishing to subscribe with them, then head directly to Info Connect.
