Not the Blue one which i posted about a couple of days ago but I managed to get the green amber mesba7 (thanks to Ali). The green amber is not as rare as the blue one but still it’ll feel very welcomed among my collection 🙂

And one more thing I’m still hunting for the blue amber! 😉

My favorite cheesecakes are the Sheraton’s, Market cafe’s (Dubai) and KFC’s (I’m ashamed but its true). I was very interested in tasting choowy Goowy’s new cheesecake when I first read about it at Mark’s, and what a nice surprise it was when loco told me yesterday that he’s bringing one to the diwaniya’s ghabga.

I love cheesecakes and I like them plain, I don’t like cherry, strawberry, raspberry, blueberry, whatever berry flavors on top. They overpower the cake and I end up tasting nothing but the berriness of the sauce! So when it comes to those sort of recipes, where the flavors are subtle, they can be easily butchered, and more often than not they are butchered beyond recognition.

The newyorker did not exceed my expectations, it met them, which is absolutely great for a first time. Thick texture, hard enough crust, and straight up mmmm-worthy overall taste. (I would’ve preferred an extra drop or two of lemon while in the making).

I did not appreciate the nutty flavored crust and did not know what was between the crust and the cake, But I’ve been told that we can easily choose our own crusts so this, thankfully, won’t be a problem in the future.

The packaging and portion. The package was simple, they’re going to be done with their new package designs soon (read it on Choowies blog) and it will look nicer. The cake was cut to 8 pieces. It could’ve easily been cut to 10, but thats ok, 8 bigger pieces are totally fine by me.

It is now only second place on my favorite cheesecake’s list; the Sheraton’s is still a bit better.

The cheesecake was a winner. They did a good job with the recipe.

5 months ago I posted how it was easy to get an iTunes card off ebay, and till a couple of days ago it was the only way I could get an iTunes card. Well, the other day khalid made a comment on that post saying that he sell those cards.

I emailed him and learned that:

1-He sells iTunes gift cards and provide the cards via email.
2-Every $1 = 350 fils, which means a $10 iTunes card would cost 3.5kd and so on..
3-He’s got 2 bank accounts as a method of payment, meaning you deposit the card’s worth to his account on either Gulf Bank or NBK.

Here is his E-MAIL if you’re interested in buying some iTunes cards.

Today I got an email saying that Disney’s products causes cancer, But i didn’t believe it until i checked the official website of Disney and found this warning:

“WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, or birth defects or other reproductive harm.”

It is located under most of the product of Disney, you can check it out yourself by clicking this LINK.

You can find it on the bottom right corner in the page.

For those of you who don’t yet know that i’m a big collector of Mesabee7 kahrab just click on this LINK to see my collection. A couple of days ago i found out that there is a new type of kahrab (we used to know that the kahrab’s colora are yellow & orange) but what surprised me that there is a VERY RARE kahrab color which is BLUE! i found this when i was reading more information about them in wikipedia, here is a little definition of the blue kahrab (they call it blue amber).

“Blue amber is amber exhibiting a rare coloration. It most commonly is found in the amber mines in the mountain ranges around Santiago, Dominican Republic. ^[1]Although little known due to its rarity, it has been around since the discovery of Dominican amber.”

They cost around KD750 – KD3000 depends on the concentration and the percentage of the blue Amber, Now i need one of these! i found some guys selling it on ebay but im afraid of buying Mesabee7 online coz i need to see them first. I found one guy who’s selling some (2 or 3 mesba7) in Bahrain and called him, i think im gonna have a flight for Bahrain just for couple of hours, maybe, im gonna see him in the airport and buy it (if i liked it) and then come back to Kuwait.

But before i go there did anyone here knows  anyone selling or having any of this?

Our last poll was ‘What is your favorite Ramadan dish?’ Over 200 people decided the following:

1. Harees / Yereesh 32%
2. Tashreba 29%
3. Muchboos 16%
4. Em6abag 3%
5. I don’t care 20%

The tashreeba, my favorite, won the second position. It so deserved to be a #1 😛

Our new poll got to do with Ramadan too. The Gergai3an is an old Kuwaiti tradition, where kids go door to door, on the 13th, 14th and 15th of every Ramadan, singing a traditional tune and in return get a handful of goodies (chocolates, nuts..etc.) We all went gerge3ing when we were kids and I remember that we couldn’t wait to measure our bagfuls of goodies and see who got the most.

So, What do you think of Gergai3an? You can submit your answers using the poll on the right sidebar.

We had a Ghabga* at the Diwaniya yesterday. We took pictures of the whole thing. My brother got carried away with the camera and now i have over 350 pictures of every person of the 60+ who were there. When it was time to arrange the buffet I thought I should take as many pictures as possible, you know, good blogging material… But this time I really don’t know what was wrong with me, every picture turned out blurry and couldn’t find any nice drool-worthy ones. Yeah, so anyway, the picture above is of my dish 😛
