Me & my wife were searching for a good place that sells Pretzels, but unfortunately we didn’t find except the one which is in the Avenues, So my mother in law decided to make her own home made Pretzels.

I know every year by February’s end the truffles become available in Kuwait but this year we couldn’t resist so we decided to get the Algerian one which costs nowadays between 15-20 KD a Kilo. So today my dad decided to bring us a couple of kilos to be cooked for tomorrow’s lunch 🙂

So we went to The Sahara golf club the other day and Many of you got it right when I asked in my previous post “Where do you think I am?“. The place is just as amazing as BCGolfNews described it to be in its review. There are big golf courses, many lakes and a horse race ring. It is also a resort with many chalets with different views and sizes.

Today i asked my mom to prepare us ma3adas with margoog which was fantastic esara7a! when i was eating it i was wondering if the margoog is still a live in our generation? is it still one of the kuwaities top dishes? My wife’s opinion was: Yes it is still known.

UPDATE: Just got an sms from mom telling me that she made the margog ! o fog’haa chum zafaaaa !! 🙂

kdd-vending-machine

We were just done taking pictures for this post when we saw this KDD vending machine right outside the scientific center. Has it been done before by KDD? coz I think it’s a cool idea and should’ve been done a long time ago.

Thanks HKR

 





I went to Prime & Toast with a couple of friends the other day based on the many praises I’ve heard about the breakfast at this place. I’ve been to the place once before for dinner and I liked it, but since I don’t like breakfasts much, I went with low expectations.

blue-bell-vanilla-ice-cream-2

My friend bought me a dozen of this vanilla ice cream some time ago for me to try. I did try them and took pictures then forgot to tell you guys about them. The ice cream is very good and the portion although small, very satisfying. It’s available in Sultan center (I just called my friend to ask about the price and he said “I forgot how much exactly but i think they’re 250 fils a piece”).

The mix totally hit the spot.

Yesterday my father brought us some double yolked eggs and it was the first time I see them, they were huge!


I managed to crack the egg and take a peek at the two yolks.

The eggs fate was decided by Mom.. thats why they ended up contributing to her sub algafshas (kuwaiti dessert). 😛

Is it true that the whole area where slider station, Burger Hub and prime & toast are located is getting demolished? Clearly the shops closer to the central bank have been evacuated already.. are they next?

Thanks Fawaz

Update Mark wrote about the topic some time ago and got the following response from the owners of slider station & pink moon: “According to the owners of Slider Station and Pink Moon, their building will not be demolished”

 





The English Tea Lounge is going to open up a branch soon, by the Sheraton, in the avenues.

Thanks HBZ

We ordered and picked the raw meat and went back home, started at 8:00 and were done around 1:00 pm. Will keep you with the pics and if you want the butcher’s number i can give it to you if you want. We liked the meat and his seasoning (Tatbelaa).

There was a KDD stand in our co-op yesterday and the woman there was telling us about this new Gaimar (Thick cream) they’re introducing, it’s called Nojoud. The brand KDD isn’t written on the cover but is mentioned that it’s produced by them on the side of the box. We tried it and it turned to be very tasty. I’m not a fan of Gaimar, but since it wasn’t as thick and strong as their other golden packed gaimar, I really liked it. You could eat it with a spoon.

 





I first read about the new Burger king sliders (mini burgers) from Mark and decided to try them out today. Let me tell you that I was disgusted when I opened the box and took a closer look at the “sliders.”

My cousin recommended this new restaurant and said it specializes in Kuwaiti food. I gave it a try.

It arrived after 45 minutes as promised. I ordered 1 Muchboos Laham and 1 Shabzi stew. Speaking of shabzi.. I’ve been looking around Kuwait for a good marag shabzi but I haven’t come across a really good one yet. All of the shabzis I’ve tried weren’t so good.. any recommendations??

Anyway, The packaging was nice and the food looked very appetizing (much better than the pictures you’re seeing).

Taco Bell has a branch in the newly opened Dubai mall. Since it’s in Dubai, I think the chances of it opening here in Kuwait have increased a bit.

I’m not one of those who love everything that isn’t in Kuwait, like Nandos and wagamama, Everyone wanted them in Kuwait, I didn’t, coz they suck (sue me). But it’s different this time, I really hope Taco Bell opens up a branch here in Kuwait simply coz I’m fed up with all the sandwiches here. Mcdonald’s patties have gone downhill for awhile now and no one seems to mind or even notice! I mean have you tried their cheeseburgers? why are their beef patties so damn dry?! and Hardee’s… The posters they have plastered everywhere showing this big chicken sandwich covered in buffalo sauce…. Turns my stomach up.

I’m rambling. My point is, I think I need my fast food fix from somewhere new and different. Tacos could potentially be it.

Picture from Talal.

 





Personally I’d go with cheese every single time!

How about you??
