@CerealKillerUK

Posted on April 27, 2017 by swera

A couple of weeks ago, we went to Cereal Killer Cafe located in Sharq to try their menu and the atmosphere that everyone was talking about.

Before you enter the place, you get hooked to it from its outdoor seatings, my little girl wanted to sit outside but the weather was very dusty, and from the moment we entered the place, we couldn’t decide where to sit. Jana wanted to sit everywhere lol. The decoration is beyond amazing. Fabulous beyond words. She sat a bit and then she started exploring the place, going there and playing arcades and just having fun.

I’ve ordered cheese sandwich and for her rainbow cereal which she enjoyed a lot but then they got us the unicorn one and she started eating from both dishes hehe. After that we got some desserts, the ice cream taco which was really good and I got the cinnabon latte which I loved a lot, good for cool weather and indoors but not outdoors.

My girl keeps nagging on me to go to the place again, which we’ll definitely visit soon.

Create Your Own Maki @Sakura_Kuwait

Posted on April 16, 2017 by swera

Last Thursday, my husband and I went to Sakura Kuwait, 360 Mall branch to try their menu, their new maki rolls, and to create my own maki, hoping i’ll win on instagram and then it will be added on their menu. This competition is going till the 15th of May, so you can still participate, go create your own maki, snap it, and then share it on instagram. The 3 tagged pictures with the highest likes will win a voucher of KD100 and their creation will be added on the menu.

I loved the experience, it was really fun. And loved tasting their menu. Everything was just delicious and yummy. What’s my favourite? Well, it has to be the Spider Maki Roll and their Shiitake Soup.

Gathering Lunch Menu

Posted on April 15, 2017 by swera

So, months months ago, I’ve visited Gathering to try their lunch menu. I’ve got busy, like really really busy in life and forgotten to write about it. It was like really long time ago and I’ve totally forgotten about the names of the dishes, but I remember that it was inspired by Indian Cuisine and here are pictures of the dishes that we tried. My favourite was the Salmon with Saffron rice dish, it was amazing.

Barker Coffee Experience-Cardiff

Posted on November 25, 2016 by swera

So I kind of got busy in life, work and other thing and forgot to write about the places I’ve visited in my last trip to Cardiff … Let’s continue.

One of the best cafes in Cardiff out there is Barker Coffee … It was an amazing experience, I visited it more than once and wanted to try as many dishes as possible. The location, the people, the atmosphere, the dishes and everything were just perfect. Their prices are a bit hight but as you can see from the dishes, they are worth it.

The cafe is located almost in front of Cardiff Castle.

If you are there or planning to go then you must visit it.

Science Cream-Cardiff

Posted on August 18, 2016 by swera

One of the most delicious ice cream places in Cardiff. Located in Castle Arcade. I came upon this place by accident. I was walking with Jana exploring the arcades in the area and then I saw this small ice cream place. Beautifully decorated in a very simple way to give you the feeling of a science lab.

The flavours and toppings change every now and then so I want to try as much flavours as I can before I go back home. We tried the Brown Butter Caramel with Caramel topping and Rainbow Pretzel and we LOVED it. I can’t tell you how delicious it was. We came later and tried something with Raspberry or Coconut I can’t remember exactly but it wasn’t as good as the caramel one. So we went for the 3rd time and had the Caramel AGAIN 😀

I also tried the Hot Chocolate with Toasted Marshmallows, it was good but very heavy and their Flat White was really good.

DELICIOUS.

My Cookie Dough-Cardiff

Posted on August 11, 2016 by swera

One of the places that I’ve discovered while I’m in Cardiff is My Cookie Dough which I came its pictures on instagram under #cardiffshopping for I was looking for something specific and found this place. Guess what? It has been infant of my own eyes for several days and I didn’t notice it at all.

Every morning I go to St. David’s Shopping Centre either for shopping or for food, but never noticed this, so when I saw its picture I couldn’t wait till next morning. Early in the morning, I went around 9:45 am and it was just Jana and I 😀

I asked for the White Chocolate Cookie Dough with Raspberry sauce. They have 3 or 4 flavours I guess but you know, I like anything with Raspberry. The lady who served us was very generous and put extra vanilla ice cream for us. It was heavenly delicious, we loved it. We went there again and tried the Peanut Butter Cookie Dough with Chocolate sauce and it was even better.

If you’re in Cardiff or planning to go there then you must try this place.

O Cafe Experience

Posted on July 16, 2016 by swera

Before the beginning of Ramadan, I dropped a visit to O Cafe located in Sha’ab Seaside (Behind Champions men) to try their menu and products. The people of Oishiii Restaurant created a small cafe in the heart of Kuwait where it’s always busy with residence, gymers and more. They thought of giving these people a choice of healthy food and drinks.

Their products are checked everyday regarding its expiry dates and changed accordingly. We tried Matcha Frappaccino, Matcha Latte, Cappuccino, Croissant and 2 other sandwiches which I can’t remember. Everything was great, loved the cozy cafe with its beautiful atmosphere and I think it will be copier in winter or when the weather starts to change.

Silk Restaurant Experience @AlthurayaCity Crowne Plaza

Posted on May 11, 2016 by swera

When I stayed in the newly renovated Crwone Plaza located in Farwaniya city, I had the chance to try some delicious dishes in Silk restaurant which is the main restaurant of the hotel and located in the middle just infant of the lobby. I love the design of this hotel, everything is in the open with bright sunlight above you.

We went down from our Royal Suite around 1:30 pm because we were really hungry and started looking at the menu that had a variety of dishes. They also have healthy menu, for those who are dieting! But seriously, who goes on diet when on vacation or relaxation mood? 😛

We ordered Lobster Soup and Avocado Shrimp Salad for starters, I have to say both were really amazing but the best is the Avocado Shrimp Salad … HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Main dishes were: Mini Trio Burgers with Brie Cheese, Seas Bass, Mushroom Risotto and Tenderloin Steak (medium well-done) … All these dishes turned out to be really REALLY good. Honestly, I had a hard time deciding which is the best of them all. But my favourite were the Sea Bass served on a bed of sweet potato and the Mini Trio Burgers served with melted Brie cheese …. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. All of them

We ended our feast with Kind Kunafa that had something different in its taste which was really nice and unique. Loved the whole experience.

And at night, we went back to the restaurant to have light dinner. We ordered Shrimp Mango Pizza and Lobster Dumplings … Oh that Pizza *yumminess*

You have to try the place.

BRW Coffee Experience-360 Mall

Posted on May 5, 2016 by swera

A couple of weeks ago I wanted to try the newly opened coffee shop which is part of Open Flame Kitchen restaurant called BRW Coffee.

We went there on Friday afternoon around 5pm and as expected it was crowded but what wasn’t expected is that the staff told us that we have to wait 3 hours for a table just to drink coffee! I was really astonished. I told them it’s just coffee and we want to sit outside not inside the restaurant. They told us the tables outside are part of the restaurant! As if I didn’t know that!!!! Why haven’t they separated the coffee shop from the restaurant?!

Anyways, we left then came back on a weekday which was Monday I believe and they also told me I have to wait 30 minutes until a table is available, I said fine, I can do window shopping in 30 minutes.

I came back and they called me and gave me a table outside the restaurant. I ordered Cortado coffee and Caramel Donuts. The order arrived immediately, it didn’t take time to prepare it. Thank god, the busyness of the place didn’t affect the coffee shop. Then I ordered the Iced Cube Latte.

All in all, I loved the experience, loved the kinds of coffee I tried, loved the service, the atmosphere and the prices were very reasonable. But I wouldn’t come back to enjoy coffee on a table because it will take a lot of time to be seated. I’d go back to have coffee to go.

Afternoon Tea at @AlthurayaCity Crowne Plaza Hotel

Posted on April 26, 2016 by swera

Today, I was invited to try the newly addition to the menu of Silk restaurant located in Althuraya City Crowne Plaza Hotel (@AlthurayaCity)

Let me give a brief introduction about the hotel. It’s a new modern hotel which opened its doors a couple of months ago. It’s part of 3 hotels; Holiday Inn (The old one), Althuraya City Crowne Plaza (The new one) which I’ll be reviewing and posting about it by the end of May, and Intercontinental Hotel which began construction and will be taking a while till it opens its doors.

Silk restaurant is the main restaurant of the hotel and I’ll be reviewing the menu soon inshallah but today I had the opportunity a selection of fine desserts, scones and sandwiches.

The 3 level tower had amazing desserts, fine delicious scones and light sandwiches. My favourite was the scones with strawberry jam and clotted cream, yumminess. Highly Recommended 🙂 The salmon sandwich was also yummy and light, totally English style. And mini chocolate desserts with raspberries (my favourite fruit) was enjoyable.

We also had Chocolate Milk Fondue and it was amazing…Loved it with the marshmallow and the fruit. A great side with the tray. And because I’m a coffee person, I had coffee with all those yummy delights.

It was a nice hour spent in the afternoon with the team of Crwone Plaza Hotel and the interior of the hotel at night is so relaxing with all the colours and greens.

A Treat from @DallahKuwait

Posted on April 16, 2016 by swera

A couple of weeks ago, I received a lovely package from our friends @DallahKuwait containing their new addition to the menu and Arabic Coffee Dallah *yumyum*

Of course, you have to know something, that whatever they add it has to be amazing. This time it was heavenly delicious. They have created Mini Caramelised Pecan Bites … Oh ma lord, yummy, chewy and glittery. One is not enough, you keep on having bite after bite without you noticing that the box is about to be empty.

I really loved it ❤

Fine Dining at @Fauchon_Kuwait Le Gourmet Cafe

Posted on April 11, 2016 by swera

A new branch of Fauchon has just opened its doors to its comers with a new concept only in Salhiya Mall (inside the mall). I first though it was the one outdoors but then I discovered there is another one inside the mall.

Now this branch offers fine dining/luxury dishes that are not served in the other branches, only in this one and I was invited to try their new signature dishes and especially the interactive desserts dishes.

The fine dining dishes have a separate menu, also looks really nice and elegant, covered with white leather and gold embossing or maybe silver 😛 can’t actually remember.

For starters, we ordered the Salmon Millefeuille and Calamari Tempura Salad. Both dishes were amazing, especially the salad, yummy with that greenish sauce.

Later on, we continued with Fresh Oysters (huge ones) served with butter and bread, now this dish was really a winner. I was looking every where in Kuwait for this dish but couldn’t find and now Fauchon Le Gourmet Cafe has it on the menu. Also we tried the yummy Escargots (snails) with a delicious green sauce. It was really amazing, loved the whole experience with the special silverware and all. It’s a must try.

After that we finished our lunch with Beef Carpaccio and Creamy Lobster dish. I can’t tell you how awesome those dishes were, mind blowing. A MUST TRY. You can’t skip having these dishes when you’re there.

The ending was with their signature interactive desserts dishes which are new and unique. We tried three dishes. Eggpectations (Coconut, pineapple,chocolate) which was my favourite, the combination of the ingredients was really amazing especially with the mint. My aunt loved Fauchon forest which had ice cream, dates and chocolate, she said it was the best. And we also tried the Lotus Brownie cake which was okay.

Thank you Fauchon……Can’t wait to go again and try other dishes 🙂

I’m loving the photos ❤
