2:48AM - Entertaining Kuwait since 2003

Lots of munchies here in Amsterdam and Chipsy King is one of my favorite places. They just serve fries with the topping of your choice. I always go with ketchup but mayonnaise seems to be the popular sauce here.

Update: Added more pictures!

During the Queens Day celebration I spotted a group of Hare Krishna. I’ve never seen them live before and they are just as colorful and musical as they were in the original Grand Theft Auto. [YouTube]

I’ve been checking out FREITAG bags since 2006 and I finally got one today. Since every single bag is a unique design I always had a hard time finding one I liked. Today I decided it was now or never and ended up getting one that should match everything I wear. If you don’t know what FREITAG bags are click [Here]

FEBO is a Dutch fast-food restaurant that has automats built into the wall. An automat is kinda like a food vending machine, you put some coins in and you can take a burger, or whatever from the machine. I’m addicted to their chicken and hamburgers, every time my pocket fills up with change I just pass by a FEBO and pick up a sandwich.

It was soo packed everywhere that we could barely walk. And thing is it wasn’t just one square or one street that was packed, it was all of Amsterdam, EVERY single street! [YouTube]

This movie is going to kick ass. I just watched the latest trailer with the Nine Inch Nails soundtrack and it looks crazy. [Trailer]

I’ve been having such an incredible lucky streak with mangoes recently. The last two boxes I got from Sultan Center turned out to be INCREDIBLE but tonight I might have discovered the “ultimate” mangoes. A friend of mine dropped off a fresh box of Indian Alphonso Mangoes and I just had some… wow they just melted in my mouth. Turns out a friend of his imports these premium mangoes directly from India and has a delivery service here in Kuwait. Its called “Gourmet Mangoes” and you just call them up and order a box of mangoes and get them delivered to you.

They’ve got two kinds of mangoes, a box of regular sized ones is for KD8 while the jumbo sized mangoes are for KD9. That’s just slightly more expensive than Sultan Center which go for KD7.450 and these guys deliver so its worth trying out.

Just got back from the Slider Station two year anniversary party and I am completely stuffed. I just love the place, Happy Anniversary!

I found this video while checking out the 11th Street blog and I couldn’t stop laughing. [YouTube]

Yesterday some magazines arrived to my Aramex Shop&Ship mailbox in the US and now the magazines are with me. Thats US to Kuwait in under 24 hours!

Is it only me or does anyone else also think are there a lot of mosquitoes this year?

The building above looks like its getting demolished which sucks. What would be the harm in refurbishing it? I think the blue pattern is really funky. [Link]

I am going to Amsterdam with Nat at the end of the week and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations on things to do and places to visit. I am going to be there on Queens Day which is cool and I already have an idea of some cafe’s I want to pass by (thank you Cannabis Cup 2008), and maybe go bungee jumping or take a wetland safari but what else can I do or see? No museums please!

I just tried the Ancho Ribs Slider this weekend at Slider Station and now I’m addicted to it. Its by far my favorite slider at the moment. I just had it again for lunch awhile ago and now I can’t wait to have it again. One thing I notice while having lunch was that the place was packed… with girls. Me and my friend were the only guys there which I thought was interesting since I always regarded burgers more of a guy thing than a girl thing.
