I pass by Qanat Al Qasba almost every day on my way to college. I think it was opened to the public in 2005, because I don’t remember seeing the big ferris wheel when I first came here (in late 2004). I’ve always wanted to take a look inside, something about the lighting and the way it looks from the outside made me curious to know what it’s like from the inside. I heard it was built as an oriental souk (but discovered later that it looks more like old oriental/european buildings). There is a little water canal splitting it in the middle. yeah and there were lots of cafes and restaurants on the sides of the canal.

I liked the place in general and especially liked the ferris wheel, it looked huge! it is said to be the biggest in the region. The place was calm with a very unusual atmosphere, it was quiet unlike anywhere else in Sharjah, And the people were mostly families.

My visit today wasn’t just for the sake of exploring something new. I was there so I can pick up my dinner from Nandos. 😀

Nandos is a south african restaurant that specializes in… chicken. they’re famous for their spices and their extra hot recipes. The first time I got to eat at Nandos was around 2 years ago in Dubai and I hated it then. the second time was in Dubai too (same branch) and I didn’t like it much then either. But I’ve decided to give it another shot since everybody seems to praise it and have only good things to say about its food.

Unfortunately I hated it this time too 😀 But don’t take my word for it, you can try it out too, it opened it’s first branch in Kuwait, in the Avenues mall.

Sorry for the subpar pictures, I took many pictures but they were all ruined by the humidity!

Here you can see Kenwood boiler that changes color as the water heats up. It goes from blue indicating the water is cold, to a bright red indicating the water is boiled and ready to scald. Moreover it can also be set to only heat the water to 80 degrees and it will maintain this constant temperature until you shut it off. .. i think its nice 🙂

Yesterday i’ve been to Souq Almubarkiya with my family, and we had dinner at “Dalaq S’hail” resturant which was REALLY delicious the weather was great and the atmosphere was new to me .. You can see there all kinds of people, from the “Hailaaaq” all the way to “Jakh” people. The weirdest thing is that i saw there a teacher, she was marking students exams while she was smoking “shisha” and eating “tikka” BTW she was wearing “hejaab” So i think u can imagine it now 🙂 but over all the resturant was so good and even the service.

After that we went walking to a place called “bo 100 fils” as u can see above every thing in this souq cost 100 fils “ya balash walla !”

Finally, i went to search for shops that sells “mesabee7” and i found a couple of shops that sells them.

At the end my thanks goes to Ahmad who took these pics, you can visit his site to see more of his shooting.

Today being a weekend, Me and my friend decided to go out (actually it was more like my friend threatening to eat my brain if I didn’t go out today). so we went out, we struggled to choose a restaurant.. we were thinking The Noodle House? Chillis? maybe fudds? I don’t know how we ended up eating at mcdonalds lol

don’t judge me! yes I love me some mayo.. yes I order the upsize meal and no I don’t like salad!

after that we went to get some stuff done. you know how the nice relatives always like to buy something in dubai, and make us go out and buy it for them… well today was my mother’s turn, she wanted some things from Harvey Nichols.. after going around in there for half an hour.. we found what she was looking for in the store next door, debenhams..

when we were in harvey nichols I thought I’d take some pictures of their Home section.

Ralph Lauren. this is my dream bedroom!

and here you’ll find versace having identity crisis, apparently they think they’re Armani or something.

and here you can see Calvin Klein.. yeah right! like I’d pay thousands of $$$ just to sleep on the floor like that!

Fendi, the bed was even uglier in reality!

Today when i was at work “my work in/out the office” i found this and i want to share it with you.

I was waiting for them like 5-7 mins. I tried EVERY THING to make them leave with no success !

I felt like he was looking at me and saying like ” eshtabeee ?? morrrr” ! o kan ekhezny.

Finally they left me in peace.

Just some idea 🙂

Let me know which one u like? 🙂

Dubai’s Dragon Mart, its 1.2 km long which makes it the largest trading hub for products from China outside the Chinese main land has already attracted huge numbers of visitors since opening its doors on December 7th 2004.

You can find everything you want and need in there. the things you find in there can be used to literally build a house and fill it up with all sorts of furniture and electronics.

Anyway, we love going to Dragon Mart because we never know what to expect next! there are always new and interesting things to be seen! for example, the last time I went there, I went with my old roommate (HI flan!!) and we bought us some tiny helicopters. they’re addictive! my other friend (INM 😀 ) bought a bag, a tiny tree and some other things (I forgot what else, wila chan fetha7ta!)

the prices are very competitive and the quality is great! (considering the price you’re paying 😉 ) anyway, here are some pictures of some of the weird products that can be found there. thanks goes to loco for providing the photos.
