Fresh Oyster from Singarea Korean Store

Kinda interesting,  living in Kuwait for the last 20 years and as they said,  this is the first ever to have a fresh oyster out in the market of Kuwait @ Singarea Korea Store.

In all honesty, I never had oyster before (in my entire life) except for the oyster sauce. There is no denying there is a right way to eat raw oysters which by the way, I don't see myself trying specially the fresh one.

Perhaps this is an opportunity for me to finally see and taste oyster hahahahahha

CHINA Hot Pot-- Superlicious 2-way-pot soup in Kuwait

It’s been awhile after coming back in Kuwait from Singapore, I have craved ramen or soup that has this authentic Chinese taste.

Been searching over the net for ramen at first but it’s a bit expensive and far from my area, until,  sissy-in-law mentioned that there is a china hotpot restaurant that served authentic Chinese Shabu-Shabu, So I did not waste time and headed to the place with hubby and landed in the small place of CHINA HOT POT next to Dream inn hotel in Salmiya, the place is very small far from my expectations but the food particularly their Two-Way pot soup brings heaven on earth, it’s absolutely the soup to die for (hahaha) it’s overly yummy!!

They have variety of dishes on their menu but I would suggest to go straight on their 
KD 12/-  Two-Way Hotpot (value meal 6 dish ingredients of your choice).

undeniably a place to visit and a soup to try!!

Sheihk Abdulla Al Salem Cultural center in Kuwait

My family had an amazing night visiting the new iconic center Sheikh Abdulla Al Salem Cultural center in Kuwait, definitely a place that everyone should visit especially with kids. Truly a very well designed establishment with state of the art facilities, I had a blast and my kids just love it every minute of being there!!

Passion and Creativity--- Take time with your Kids

When you have  kids in different stages of primary school (like for me) I have Grade 1, 4 and 6, imagine my everyday struggles to maintain the equality of time with my kids,  it's like going back to school  only this time I have to actually review, comprehend and study hard so I won't get that bad reviews from my kids... my kids are my most absolute life's critic, So I always ensure to have that thumbs up from them in whatever I do.

Also, I really don't know where do kids these days get so smart and intelligent that I feel the older they get the more I become obsolete in many things, I'm a computer science graduate, that's a clear 4 years of sweat and hard work in school, but my kids are able to do codings and 3d games in just a snap!! they can navigate mainframe without proper training my GAWD!!!!! it's 4 years of college VS an hour of google and youtube and whalllah!!  it blows my mind!! 

Anyway, even at their advantage, I always win their approvals when it comes to creative projects, I feel that I am able to express myself and love for my kids whether for school, events and normal creative days.  I super love working with colors and its a great way to share that creative passion with kids and know that by doing so, I have created an intimate bond and I'm always looking forward to more bonding moments with my kids.

I strongly believe that parents, should invest more of their time to their kids than work, we have many reasons why we work so hard but nothing worth every second of our time that being with kids and family. we are not getting any younger, everyday is an oppotunity to things right and bright. 

Take time to be with your kids!! 

Trying to be Healthy in Kuwait

Last week, I  unexpectedly having that feeling of starting a diet plan but you know, it's very common for me to break all that fuzz easily and get back to my usual freakin' unhealthy habits... (sorry...)

Anyway, I was at the grocery to find something healthy and found these healthy foods on the shelves, its funny because I just want to try that fancy feeling of buying healthy foods in beautiful packaging, (hell yeah! its great for Instagram!! hahaha), but beyond my excuses, it's actually really delicious, I super love the combination of the chicken Ceasar salad and the eat-clean chicken Cajun sandwich and it's not that expensive, I can probably maintain having these meals on my everyday budget. Not bad at all...! yummy start for me then! 

Love it!!!

Breakfast and Luncboxes for kids

Been doing my kids lunch boxes and breakfast ever since they started school, I find it very exciting to combine food and arrange it on the colorful boxes, however,  as I was in the grocery the other day, I found out that not all parents do have the same feelings, I met an old friend of mine, we go deeper into our conversation, she mentioned to me that she finds it hard to think of kid’s breakfast and lunchboxes day by day, I drop my jaw, I mean, I’m speechless!! Why?? 

Breakfast is very important meal of the day, we have to do our best magic for our kids to start their day with a breakfast.

We as parents have our sets of things we love to do with our kids and I’m just very lucky that I truly enjoy the aspect of making breakfast and lunchboxes for my kids.

Here is my week of breakfast and lunch prepared meals for my kids, it pretty simple actually but I get a lot of hugs and kisses after school

Ultimate breakfast--Jollibee

So here I am today for another breakfast adventure in Kuwait.

Hubby and I been working late last night, we painted the house and assembled few cabinets we bought from ikea, so immediately after dropping the kids at school the very first thing in our minds is to grab a breakfast, not just a breakfast but an ultimate heavy breakfast…

Just a little explanation on our part, we filipinos are used to eating rice and viands with hot drink in the morning and repeat the same in lunch and dinner but with cold drinks hahahahaha…..  anyway, while in the car, we are arguing in choosing between Inasal and jollibee, I want to dine in jollibee due to its variety yet very filipino taste while hubby wants to have an early barbeque and rice.

After half an hour,we arrived in the place, it’s a pure coincident and a blessing that inasal was still close and with all out smile we headed directly to Jollibee which is just next to inasal.

So, people excuse me for having one exclusive photo as I am very hungry  can’t wait to eat, this is a super meal I can never replace by any fancy sosyal set-up ekclabusshhh breakfast.

PS:  if you feel a little bit adventurous and wanna try something new to start your day heavy, please try our filipino meal Jollibee… (for breakfast, lunch and dinner) YUM!!!

Jollibee already have branches in many areas in Kuwait, it should not be hard to find!!
