I was just checking the Alshaya website for info on their new Italian restaurant when I found an article on the first Starbucks that opened up in Moscow last month. It was a joint venture between M.H. Alshaya Co. and Starbucks Coffee International. I thought that was pretty cool. [Link]
Still can’t find any info though on their new restaurant. A friend told me they opened up an Italian restaurant in The Avenues and supposedly its really good.

there was a big advertisement of that restaurant in the newspaper, i forgot what it was called though
That is really cool that they have expanded this much. Their retail business has expanded and I hope it keeps expanding outside the country and more.
I had a meeting in their head office today, and they say that will start their own brands soon.
For the restaurant. I know that Romano’s Macaroni Grill will open soon in the Avenues is it by Alshaya?
The opening of Starbucks in Russia was delayed by a squatter (Sergei A. Zuykov) who asked for $ 600,000 to give up his registration rights. Starbucks did not pay and eventually won the case when Russia applied for the WTO.
Wierd,,,
Yeah, it had better be good considering what a blunder Ashas’ turned out to be.
you have many post about Alshaya!!why!!
i think this is my first post on alshaya dude
just checked, its my second…
if u mean the restaurant in the middle of the avenues, the italian one, i’ve just been there a couple of days ago, great restaurant, nice pasta
The place is called il forno or al forno something like that.
Anyone have a clue how much each Starbucks in Kuwait sells per day?
Trying to estimate Starbucks sales for Kuwait alone. There are over 55 now in Kuwait, or so I heard.
they have taken over the world…
Il Forno! I think this is in Courtyard Marriott

eating at restaurants in shopping malls.
pure class.
Alforno..tried it last Monday…the food was excellent and the service was great…dont miss it
el forno
i know since long time that al shayea will open in moscow not only Starbucks but other brands that al shayea have. it’s really nice i like that & am proud of it
If its Italo then its owned by the same people as Le Notre. Its the one open somewhere in the center like its on a bridge or something. It can’t be Il forno since as Abdullah said thats the one at the Courtyard.
Also note, Al Shaya has opened up stores in Turkey a while back as well.
Alshaya’s new Italian restaurant “Al Forno” – opened today 13th October. It is right next to H&M and opposite Lenotre. They have inside seating and when weather permits, they will have outside seating by the fountains.
This looks so much similliar to the next to Casper and Gambini.
So is it ILFORNO or Romano’s Macaroni Grill?? and when will Macaroni grill be openning? they have a mean Ravioli…
I should really stop reading the archive..
anyway, Starbucks saudi raised their prices 3 times in the last 4 years,
2 SR then 1SR on extras (so 1 extra espresso is 3sr not 2 etc) then a very recent increase by 2SR in Ramadan.
I bought a nespresso now 🙂 make my own lattes and stuff heh
