A reader sent in pictures of the Chairman’s Club which is located on the last floor of the Burgan Bank building. The Chairman’s Club is an invite only club where they supposedly have a KD35 burger. Check out the pictures below.
Thanks Alex!

35 kd burger !!
i’ll pass 😛
Well that’s a little rich for my taste…
An invite only sausage club.. =O
thats where the Illuminati hang out
Language correction
It’s not the “last floor”, it’s the “top floor”.
Cheers
Am sure burgers are not the only items being served seeing that it’ an invite only club…hence privacy…
Hey Mark… There seems to be a glitch in the photo viewer.. the ads overlap a portion of the viewer when viewed in Firefox…
With our finest selection of fresh juices… :p
WOW I heard of it! but I never thought it was real!! PLUS! I have been told that alcohol is permitted in the club!! is that real as well!
@lensman, i’ve viewed in firefox its just fine.
@SWAiN, being rich in Kuwait doesn’t necessarily means that the person is ‘open’ or whatever… in fact, most of wealthy people nowadays are labeled as ‘religious’ (even though they used religion in one way or the other to make their fortune).
so the idea is you pay a huge amount of money to just go and sit there ! and sometimes you’d pay double the huge amount of money to just go sit and eat a burger .35KD ! its a burger what could possibly be in this burger that would make it worth 35KD ,do they serve french fries with it by the way?
I woujldn’t mind having my gin and tonic there.
I was invited there once ;p but the lunch was free hehe
Looks like any other Hotel lobby or Business Center.
35 KD yes…but then you’d be dining with the rich and shameless…did I say that…well you know what I mean!!
The membership fee is something outrageous as well. Suspic – sausage club – haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
do they like have hidden dancing polls or blonde waitresses
Great, just what we need.. another place for the elitist idiots to meet and discuss how to screw us over.
# 5 is right, there is a glitch. Ads overlap the pictures in Firefox.
Shoot… forgot to change the nick 😐
So how does it compare with DWTC?
The pictures are a throwback to the Hunting & Equesterian Club, in its heyday, before the invasion. Dunno, if they have spiffed up the place now.
looks like first class lounges !!
bss el view min ahnaak shaklaa kha6eer
They have one of the best steaks I have ever tried. And the view is fantastic
Well, it’s a perfect setting to enjoy a 35KD burger.
It must be nice to be rich.
It’s decided – we shall have the next b-logger’s meetup at the Chairman’s Club downtown. All are welcome 🙂
P.S : Dunno which is the funnier part – Chairman’ s Club for the venue or the ‘all are welcome’ part?
I’ve been there for an evening of free cigars and drinks. Yes the rumors are true, they serve alcohol! And yes, the waitresses are Russian or other eastern European nationalities. A few or them are tall and blonde. But it’s usually a bunch of older rich guys sitting around and talking, nothing very exciting.
@Puff Thanks
@3azeez save the effort 🙂
@Bu Khaled be careful la “3azeez” yaklek! lol
New goal for 2010…
Nobu,
Punctuation correction:
it’s not ” ‘It’s not the “last floor”, it’s the “top floor’. ”
it’s “last floor,” It’s the “top floor.”
Cheers
I guess it must be empty these days…
Not only burger, last month I’d saw a Chairman’s Club menu book being sold @ Jarir Bookstore in Hawally.
Slow news day, Mark? The Chairman’s Club has been around for at least 4 years
Yeah but this is the first time anyone posts pictures.
I’m disappointed no body took a picture of the bar !
Nice one Bingo Man… ;D
i heard its 600KD burger not 35KD burger ?
btw these pictures were circling mailing lists since late 2003
Bashar: No they weren’t because the pictures were timestamped and they were shot July 2009 with a D80.
Mark: i’ll locate that email on yahoo group that arrived to me and see if i can find it 🙂
i’m sure i’ve seen those or similar pictures ages ago talking about 600KD burger on burgan bank roof
