Smash Burger Salmiya Pics

The new Smashburger location in Salmiya opened up a couple of days ago and the updated place is great. It's located behind Olympia Mall on the same street as AUK. The only problem of course is parking but that's the biggest problem in Kuwait anyways. 


 I totally dig the astro turf, makes me want to have a picnic there.



 This time I tried the chicken Caesar salad, loved it!
 I'm addicted to their sweet potato fries.
 This is their version of the low-carb chicken sandwich.
Thanks J!

Old house in Mangaf

I spotted this old house as I was driving through Mangaf and had to stop to take pictures before it gets torn down. I wish they would make every one of these old houses a little musuem where it stands. They could just refurbish is so it is steady and build a gate around it, kind of like the old doors that were once part of the wall built around Kuwait.



Time is running out and modernization is taking over, erasing history.

Smashburger now open in Salmiya

It's located on the other side of Olympia Mall where Organica Fish and whatever you call it used to be located.

Private school Fees in Kuwait- way too much????

I've been looking into private school fees and I wonder how much these schools charged when they first open. I can understand the exorbitant fees if the kids were receiving a Harvard education but we all know they aren't really what they seem. I really like how some label themselves as "non-profit" but still charge an arm and a leg.
 
Here is some information on school fees:
 

 The American Baccalaureate School

 American Creativity Academy

 American School of Kuwait

 American United School of Kuwait (previously American University School of Kuwait)

 New English School- Kuwait

The Universal American School

The newest school is American University School of Kuwait, if grade 4-5 is 5500 KD how much would high school be, 10,000KD?
