Last week I tried out a new and a hip restaurant headed by Kuwaiti Chef and Le Cordon Bleu grad Faisal Al Nashmi called St. AlMakan. Basically it's an original underground streetfood eatery inspired by the urban streets, and it's actually part of @almakan_kw project. The eatery is across from Fabrics' market in Kuwait City, and for the time being they don't take reservations, but if you go around 7:30PM, you can guarantee a table. I was invited by my sweet cousin, so she has ordered all sorts of things to try out. Some were so yummy, like the green curry glazed ribs on mashed potato with pickled onions (my #1 favorite St. AlMakan dish!), the chef's signature beef brisket, and the tasty roasted butternut squash salad with pomegranate and fennel yogurt (shown on the above photo). I wasn't a fan of the chicken dishes mainly because I don't really like eating chicken. But the overall experience was great! Check it out if you're ever in K-town.
That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit. After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the Altuzarra sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away. Which pair would you go for?
