french burgers



yesterday me and two friends had burgers at the new french place in avenues phase II (i simply cannot remember the name) the red cafe across from dean & deluca between Hagen daz and caribou, yeah it's open now. anyways, me and two other friends went there and had to wait approximately 15 minutes for a table. we usually hate waiting for a table especially if we were hungry enough to eat a whole ghoozi, each. but this was a new place newly opened and we thought it might be worth the wait. at least we were trying something new. and because it was new to us, naturally we ordered half the menu. we had onion soup for appetizer which was good if you like onion soup. i ordered warm goat cheese salad (yes i ordered a salad), wasnt that bad but when you eat the cheese you are going to know that it really came from a goat, and not in a good way, but i guess thats just how the french do it. oh i loved the bread basket, am a bread lover and i appreciate a good selection of french bread. for our main dish we ordered hamburgers, medium well of coarse. mine was, as you can see, didnt have lettuce or tomato because i like it this way. the hamburgers were in my opinion the best thing we tried at that place, but maybe am saying this cuz of my prejudice towards hamburgers, but if your a hamburger lover you know your just gonna have to try it. we also ordered the calamari dish and spaghetti bolo(naiz), both of which werent any good and not recommended by the bored kuwaiti food tasters club. we would have tried some dessert but unfortunately as it stood, there wasnt any room in our over extended bellies for it. i think there would definitely be a next time if only to sit there and have coffee and dessert, cuz also the seating area is nice and you get a good view of all the passers by, which could prove popular in kuwait.

The other day i was passing by and thought to my self that the outside seating of the place is amazing and there is no way it will be all full...

i think i was wrong...

i love bread! and you cracked me up regarding the goat cheese. It is not supposed to stink like a goat if its cooked well with good herbs... il thaher 7a6oha min il goo6e direct 3la ur salad...

Ansam said...

Its called Brasserie Cafe.. O ba3dain goat cheese is an acquired taste X-P Its not for everyone X-P I like it with certain salads and sandwiches but your comment is, nevertheless, funny! And no room for dessert??? Whatever happen for eating a whole Ouzi each :-P hahahahaha

And I am the same way... I prefer my burgers plain and maybe with cheese only (and SOMETIMES) with sauce.

I went there too last weekend. I also ordered their burger and I think I ordered either medium or well done. I've been craving a really good burger for a while now. Anyway, istaghfaralla I didn't enjoy it so I ended up eating maybe half the actual meat and most of the buns. Couldn't finish it. My brother ordered onion soup but he said it was cold. He got the steak which apparently was excellent. The bread basket was also very good, especially the brown bread and I love how they servied the butter. The service was also very good, our waiter was very friendly.

elieruby, ana after I read bored's post ishtahair Reeses oo fi3lan shifta ib Sultan (sharq) bass ma shift the small cup things shift the actual chocolate bar and it was very tasty.
