Trying New Things in Kuwait

Loool ~ Google Images

A while ago we went to dine at one of my sweetheart’s favorite places to eat in Kuwait. I loved the Kuwaiti and Moroccan food so this gave him the 'green light' to add it to the list of restaurants that he brings / sends me when I am arriving home late from work. If it weren't for him I would probably starve because I am just too tired sometimes to even order something to eat. I don’t want to cook anything because that would mean washing dishes! Teeheehee.

We go out to eat a lot on the weekend.  He loves for me to try new restaurants (as long as there isn't a long wait) and dishes because I tend to eat out at a lot of the same places. This is one of the things that will drive him nuts about me. I like to order the same dishes when he loves to try something new every time.

His best friend is a lot like me but even worse. They typically meet once a week for dinner and he wants to go the same American restaurant. I am far from being that boring but I do have a tendency to go back to places I enjoy instead of trying somewhere new.  This is one of the many good things about loving him.  He encourages me to try new things in Kuwait.

My empty fridge with coffee, water, milk, soda, cheese, butter, condiments and WOW catering that he brought me on Wednesday. I will post about WOW and the spider incident later.

When he sends / brings food it is enough for days. The Maadenaa photos (one above and the rest below) are from a few weeks ago.


I highly recommend the food and this restaurant has a spectacular view of Kuwait City.

  2. Ok.. I like trying new places in K-Town, (I can't keep up with the new places, they pop out like truffles in this town! lol ;p) but I do tend to go back to restaurants I like.. but not always order the same thing.. I always ask "What's new in the menu?" :)

    Food looks good :) "He" has the "Kuwaiti Generosity" ;p we always believe in "The More The Merrier" when it comes to food and anything as a "giveaway" ;p little do most of us embrace "Less is more" (Why do I sound like a freakin life coach?! ;p)

    I LOVE ur fridge! :D aw the coke looks so lonely, buy a 7UP and match them! LOL ;P

  5. Ambrosial (life coach) ~ Who can keep up with all the new places in K-town unless eating out is a sport. ;) I would love to try because I love to eat.

    You love my fridge? The coke isn't lonely because his fridgemates are on the side door looking for love in all the right places. ;P
