Ramadan Kareem (2009-8-22)

I would like to wish you all a very blessed Ramadan and Mubarak 3laykom al shaher. 
I know a lot of you who read this blog live outside Kuwait and I wish you all the best for the month ahead and hope the fasting is not too heavy a burden. I  have fasted during Ramadan when living outside and I [...]

New Food Menu at Starbucks (2009-8-16)

This morning I went down to Starbucks to get something to eat. Usually I take hours to decide what to buy, not because there is so much choice, its because there is never anything that really looks good. I usually end up with blueberry muffin as it’s a safe bet. Well this morning I went [...]

A Smoothie That’s Too Smooth For Me (2009-8-10)

A post about Actimel Smoothies.

Nespresso Coffee (2009-7-26)

 After my disappointing coffee experience at Coffee Republic at 360 Mall I thought I would go and visit the Nespresso shop on the 1stfloor of the Mall. I already knew that Nespresso sell machines for the home that make proper Italian espresso coffee in 30 seconds. The beauty of their machines is that it is [...]

Mall 360 - 2nd Impressions(with photos) (2009-7-25)

 This Friday I took my second visit to mall 360. There are still no more new shops open but it was nice to have my morning coffee there. I thought I would try out Coffee Republic, as I have never been to it in Kuwait.  The coffee was disappointing I thought…WAY too hot and not much flavour. But it had [...]

Best Pizza in Kuwait ? (2009-7-14)

This weekend we went to Diva’s on Belajat Street for a change and decided to have something light to eat. The menu is pretty big in Diva’s and has photos of all the dishes which is handy, but I knew what I was going to order before I even sat down.
There are two pizzas on [...]

Showtime Merges With Orbit (2009-7-13)

Just saw a commercial on Showtime explaining that Showtime customers can now watch Orbit channels like America Plus and Super Movies for free ! Showtime and Orbit have now merged so in the future you only have to subscribe with one company rather than both.
There’s not really much on Orbit that I would be looking [...]

First Impressions - 360 Mall (2009-7-11)

The big buzz here in Kuwait this week has of course been the opening of the 360 Mall  (we all like it when a new mall opens, let’s be honest). I’ve heard and read different things and its seems that most are talking negative, so I decided to go Friday morning when it would be at [...]

Back in Kuwait (2009-6-28)

Got back yesterday from London. Plenty to talk about so this week will be posting about places I visited and things I did while I was over in London.  The flight back was much better than the outgoing one (although it was an hour late leaving) still at least the entertainment was working this time [...]

BA - Another Bad Experience (2009-6-17)

I had arrived in London after a pretty awful in-flight experience with BA from Kuwait.  I first noticed something strange when I walked through business class and the seats were the old fabric style ones. They had all the leg room and everything but not the modern (fake) leather seats.  That would have pissed me [...]
