The Avenues Phase 3

From experience, there is one thing that Kuwait does best: food. When franchises open up in Kuwait, they usually taste better than they do in the countries they originally came from. There have been countless times where I’d try a restaurant abroad and compare it to my tasting experience in Kuwait. Kuwait always wins me over. When it comes to food, we’re excellent, but when it comes to retail, we’re not as experienced. Shops always seem to be out of stock and the available items are usually a couple of months old. From my personal experience, I bought a couple of shirts from a clothing store in London (whose name I won’t mention). This same store is also found in Kuwait. When I came back to Kuwait, the shirts weren’t sold there. Three months later…the shirts were there, out of fashion and nowhere near the realm of trending fashion fads. Once again, I was disappointed.

Enough with that. SO, I haven’t been to the newly opened phase at The Avenues Mall. Judging from the innumerable photos on Instagram, the place looks beyond amazing. I was only able to view the new project from the exterior just a few days ago. It seems like there are a lot of new restaurants opened there, which I really hope are going to give Kuwait an all-new and extraordinary experience. Aside from the restaurants, there are new RETAIL stores. Hallelujah. It’s about time. Let’s just hope they don’t get ruined and continue to hold their glamorous fashionable touches.

P.S.: This means: less coincidences where people would be wearing the EXACT same outfits.

Awk-waaaaaaard.

London Limo Servies in Avenues

This is such a cool idea! I haven’t seen these type of offers in Kuwait before. I’ve seen a lot of this stuff in Dubai and it’s really useful. It helps make a better shopping experience!

Shake Shack Kuwait Opening In July

I heard rumors from a friend that Shake Shack will be opening in July. It’s going to located in Avenues Phase 1 (it’s where PQ used to be). I really hope that the rumor is true! But its too bad I won’t be in Kuwait at that time. I really want to try their burger. It already opened up in Dubai and people who have tried it say its amazing.

Don’t you think that there’s too many burger places now? Don’t they all kind of taste the same? Only difference is the type of sauce they use. I really do hope that Shake Shack would be worth the wait and not just like any burger place we have here.

Taco Bell’s Kuwaiti Ad

I’m sure everyone by now has encountered the annoying Taco Bell advertisement. Nearly every website I visit, has it. I think it already opened in Kuwait, but I really don’t see the need to have that many ads. Whats so annoying about that ad is that it rings a bell every few minutes.

Anyways, this morning my sister had her bedroom window open all day long. Every time she entered her room she hears a church bell. She kept on complaining. Problem is there are no churches near our house. My mom kept on telling her that it’s probably our neighbors wind chimes. Weird thing is, if our neighbors had wind chimes that means I would have heard the sound in my room too (our rooms are next to each other). Then my sister came to a conclusion that the sound was coming from the roof of our house. She goes up there and finds nothing and no sound of any bell. I go to her room to see if I can help. The sound was really loud. I got close to her laptop and it was pretty clear that the sound was coming from it. I quickly tell her and she doesn’t believe me! She quickly turns it off, just in case. A few minutes later, we hear the sound again… Just kidding. The sound had stopped. Though later I remembered that she had the Cinescape website on. Taco bell’s ad must have been there. After my sister realized that, she got pretty mad at Taco Bell. I don’t think she’ll ever go there. Poor thing she really had a rough day.

Stealing Cigars in Avenues

Last night, I went to avenues and I passed by cig-a-book. I noticed a group of guys that the cashier was talking too. He seemed very frustrated and the guys started leaving. As I was paying, the cashier’s expressions suddenly changed. I turn my head to where he was looking at and saw one of the guys from earlier taking out a cigar from the cupboard. The cashier immediately goes over to him and the stealer got nervous, so he started apologizing quickly. He looked no older than 16. He returns the cigar in its place and leaves the shop.

All this happened in front of me and I was shocked that the employee handled the situation that way. He could have at least called the security in Avenues, so they can deal with him. Even if he’s a minor, his parents should be informed, so they’d keep a closer eye on their son. If that happened somewhere other than Kuwait, that boy would have been in so much trouble.

That’s the cigar cupboard he was trying to steal from!
