The Kuwait Fire Service has put up a stand at the Avenues Mall opposite the food court. They have some of their smaller vehicles on display as well as a lot of the equipment they use. The blown gas tank and burnt desktop caught my attention. Lots of informational handouts available too mostly on using [...]

Its been a while since we ate at Pizza Express. In fact we had only eaten there once before when Amber introduced us to her favorite pizza place in Kuwait. Since we were at the Avenues and Ro was very hungry we decided to pop in for a quick meal. As usual the food court [...]

So you’ve been lugging 20 bags around the mall like a porter for your wife and the stomach is now blocking out all commands from the busy shopper. As you reach the food court the most prominent signboards are the Lebanse tree and Santoor. My stomach drags me towards a more Indianish Santoor but hold [...]

It was around 9.30 at night and Ro just got off (pretty late) from work. Now she was exhausted from working late and so was I from being made to unnecessarily slog at the office the whole day so we decided to eat out. The nearest place I could think of was the Avenues.  So [...]

If you’ve watched “She’s The Man”, you know they can be used to control nose bleeds  I’ve heard of a lotta fights breaking out at Avenues with a lot of bloody noses, so probably [...]

Love this sign. Too bad no one reads it while entering the parking lot at Avenues. Its real irritating. All these dumb-ass youngsters driving around the well-lit parking lots with headlights on full beam. “Take off those cheap sun glasses fool”. What is it with all these idiots wearing sun glasses in an underground parking [...]
