September events at Sheikh Jaber Al Ahmad Cultural Center

A few September events coming up soon.

Theatre by Rhodes, VOX cinema, The Avenues

We were invited to the opening of the new luxury movie experience from VOX cinema in The Avenues.

"Movie fans will be able to enjoy what has been dubbed the 'pinnacle of luxury cinema' as they watch their favorite movie blockbusters on screen and enjoy an extensive menu exclusively created for VOX by British Michelin-starred celebrity Chef Gary Rhodes and his team with sweet and savoury dishes like the Lobster and Chicken Ceasar Tacos, 'Rhodes' Foie Gras Panini, Mini 'New York' Deli Beef Burgers, Date and Banana French Toast Fingers and Chocolate Chip Pancakes.  Fitted with lavish interior design and furnishings in the exclusive lounge, interactive cinema seating and table service, THEATRE by Rhodes offers the perfect escape for movie fans who appreciate the finer things in life."

 The initial seating area is decorated with soft hues of grey and blue with dark brown accents.

The concept of this came from UAE where Chef Rhodes now lives and manages his popular restaurants. You can find more information about the idea here. The price of this luxury dining experience is 20KD which includes ticket, food, drink and tea/coffee, for more information on booking click the link.

Cultural differences discussion from TIES

Something to do for those who wonder about the differences that aren't obvious.

Damage to the Museums

Sheikh Abdullah Al Salem Cultural Center

This is why we can't have nice things in Kuwait. Here is picture of one of the displays that have had some items stolen/broke off of the display. This was one of many in the museum that had damage.

 It's a shame that there has to be security guards at around every corner because people don't act like humans.
