Peter Pan on Ice عرض بيتر بان للتزلج

في اجازة العيد  ..  حضرت عرض بيتر بان اللي أقيم في صالة التزلج للمشروعات السياحية بالتعاون مع شركة باور ميديا. عيالي كانوا وايد متحمسين ومتشوقين كونهم صغار و هالتجربة تعتبر يديدة عليهم .. وانا كنت مثلهم .. قصة بيتر بان من اكثر القصص اللي احبها. كنا حاجزين العرض الثاني في ثاني يوم العيد. شرينا تذاكرنا من صالة التزلج و لاحظت باعلان العرض ان التذاكر تنباع بأماكن ثانية منها الافنيوز بس للأسف بعدين عرفنا ان هذه التذاكر مغشوشة و غير مقبولة من الشركة بالعرض .. استغربت ان الاعلان كان موجود بالجرايد وهالشي خلا الناس تيي و تتهاوش مع الادارة في الصالة.

داخل الصالة كان في كشك ستاربكس و شيك شاك برغرز و جاريت بوبكورن و طبعاً بقالة. تمنيت لو كان الراعين للعرض يحطون أكل صحي بما ان العرض للأطفال. اللي عجبني ان التنظيم كله كان كويتي .. شباب و بنات ماشاءالله عليهم يبردون القلب اهم اللي يرتبون و يقعدون الناس. حبيتهم يعطيهم العافية. العرض بدا ربع ساعة متأخر ..

حبيت العرض الممثلين موهوبين. الصوت كان مو واضح و الوضع شوي كان لوية .. يا ريت يحاولون يغيرون نظام القعدة في المرات الياية. 

الكراسي أبداً ما كانت مريحة .. عالعموم .. العرض عجبني و حبيت التجربة بس ماكانت ١٠٠٪ مرضية .. أتمنى في المرات الياية تكون أحسن.

During Eid vacation I attended with my kids the Peter Pan on Ice show in tha skating rank. We were so excited to attend such a show since it was our 1st time experience attending this kind of shows in Kuwait. We got our tickets from the skating rank although the ad for the show included ither places for selling tickets. Apparantely, those tickets selling places were fake & that made people attend & fight with organizers. 

The show started 15 mins late but it was ok. The seating organizers were wonderful, they were all young Kuwaiti men & women. The show had starbucks, shake shack & garrett popcorn boothes. Although as a childrens' show, as a mother I would prefer if they had a bit more healthy foods. The show was good, i lived the performers, although the seats are so uncomfortable. The sounds were a bit unclear but to the children it didn't matter. I would repeat the experrience although I hope next time they will fix their mistakes.

Lunch at Mix Berries Lounge

Hi, I hope you've read my previous post on Mix Berries Lounge, that was before their official opening. Now, I'm back to taste the food on their new menu.

First, we arrived and there was our table.

 

My friends and I look into every detail, and we loved the layout of the menu and how it was divided into cute little sections, like hungry? and thirsty? It's very creative and the pictures of the food really help you visualize your dish.

 

For starters, we had the mix berries salad. It was ok.

 

And the dynamite shrimp, which I liked. The dynamite sauce was very nice, and spicy of course.

 

And some wedges potatoes. My friend really enjoyed those.

As for the main course, we had the original burger. I thought it was very tasty. The burger was juicy and the sauce tastes delicious.

 

And the Angus steak. It was good and most importantly, the meat was not chewy, a big must for me.

 

Saving the best for last, we also ordered the Dmaar burger which is their best selling dish. It was totally worth it. It stood for its reputation so well. I loved the pomegranate with the burger, its a nice combination. I love bread and thought the bun was very soft. My friends preferred this over the original burger, but to me they were both really delicious.

 

For sweet, we were treated with some nutella crepes on the house in celebration of my friend's birthday. Happy belated birthday my lulu @_amj_ Thank you mixberries for making that day so special.

 

 

They were heavenly good. Or as someone once said, its like they escaped from heaven and came to our table. (Its a metaphor for how good someting tastes).

 

 

All in all, a great experience, great food and a great place to lounge with friends. After this tasting, I really do belive they cook with love. I sensed their passion for their work and their care for the customers.

 

Next time you're there, please try our dish "Atayef Crepe" and let us know what you think.

 

Thank you Mixberries for the hospitablilty. Wish you the best and hope to visit again.

 

You may indulge in good food right at home, just call 25721625 for delivery.

Porch cafe

Hi, Did you try the new Porch Cafe?
I did. Porch cafe is a cafe owner by the Kuwaiti retail store, Deer & Dear.
It is located in the Avenues Mall near their store Deer & Dear, and the men's Spa Time.

I went my blogger friends for dinner.

 

 The menu is considered an international one, and has many different dishes.

 

 This is the seating area. It is conveniently located in a quiet place.

 

 I loved their decor and rustic feel.

 

 First of, the bread basket and olives. It was so fresh and warm, I couldn't resist.

 

The chicken caesar salad was very tasty and I loved the dressing.

 

 For cold starters, we have the mountain of eggplant. It was not so great because I prefer it hot.

 

The mozarella balls were perfect. We also had a creamy fettucini pasta and mushroom with the porch cafe sauce which was also delicious.

 

We ordered mint tea, and some bread pudding to surprise the birthday girl @_amj_ because its her favourite.

 

They offered us a tasting of their new tiramisu, which will be on the menu soon. It was very smooth and mild and perfectly sweetened.

 

I adored the box they created for the cheque, it has character and shows the identity of the cafe, Kuwaiti. I recommend you all go and try it out.

My friends and I liked the cafe, the atmosphere, the service and the food. And I hope to visit them again soon and taste the items on the menu that I didn't get to try.

Heaven in Bahrain

Two weekends ago, my family and I travelled to Bahrain. I became hooked since that trip.
Although, Bahrain is a small city, but it has so much beauty.

Up up and away we go.

 

At the airport, the hotel had sent us a driver to take us to the hotel. We were staying at Ritz Carlton Private Villas.We arrived there in about 20 miutes. The villas are different from the hotel. They took us directly to our private villa, and then a representative came to do all the check-in paperwork.

This is the living room we sat in first, we were greeted and welcomed by our butler Anita, who will be attending us 24 hours a day during our stay. She offered us all cold refreshments.

 

She took us on a tour of the villa and then unpacked our bags, which was very helpful. Since it was intended to be a relaxing getaway. The villa has three bedroom, each with its bathroom, a living room, dinning room and kitchen. Outside is a private pool, garden, shower and sitting area. The picture above is of the master bedroom, which also have a jacuzzi.

 

 This is the terrace area.

 

 And the pool.

 

 The view is breathtaking. You see the gardens and the sandy beach.

 

 This is the dinning table overlooing the pool.

 

Our first night in, we ordered from the in-villa dining menu.

 

Day 2

 

Breakfast is included with the rate of the villa and you may order it in the villa, or have at the main restaurant of the hotel (La Med) or have it at the Club Lounge.
We personally didn't leave the villa the whole time we were there, and had it delivered to us.

 

Let the fun and splashing begin. We spent the whole day just swimming in the pool and laying in the sun.

 

 Day 2

 

We began our day with an amazing breakfast.

 



 

 And then we were off to swim again.

 We also swam in the sea.

 

This was a great place for a fun family vacation. I loved the villas because they were like an escape from the city and thier design gives you the feeling of staying on an island, rather than in AlManana city. Bahrain, this will not be the last of us, we promise ourselves to visit once a year, since we really enjoyed our stay.

Get the real taste of Turkey, only in Kuwait!

Hello, Last weekend my family and I went out for lunch in the Avenues Mall and we ate at a new turkish restaurant, called Kashi pashi and I would like to tell you all about it.

The food gave my the feeling that I was in Turkey, so why travel when you've got it all in K-Town.

It is located at Grande Avenue, above the chain of sheraton restaurants, opposite of Victoria Secret shop.

 

Luckily, we went early, because after 1:00pm the place started to get packed and people were queuing outside.

 

 These are the starters.

 

Their mini assorted fatayer were very nice. I guess the restaurant would by a great choice for breakfast too.

 

 The grilled chicken salad was ok.

 

 This is my favorite dish, I don't recall the name of it, but the picture is on the menu.

 

 And this is the famous turkish doner, or as we call it shawarma. It was very juicy and tender.

 

One interesting side dish was the eggplant rice, so I had to taste it. It was also nice.

 

This dish consists of meat and bread at the bottom and some yoghurt at the side and drizzled with some tomato sauce. It was yummy.

 

These dishes were a crowd pleaser, grilled chicken and chicken kebab. I also loved the side groats (burgil) it was delicious.

 

We emjoyed the place and I hope you get a chance to try it sometime.
Till next time, Bon Appetite Kuwait.
