Remember my "Where to eat in Beirut?" post? Well, in additions to the restaurants and cafes I have mentioned in my previous post, I would like to add Olio Pizzeria. We had lunch there after visiting my sister-in-law's art studio. I had this cherry tomatoes and aromatic basil leaves salad drizzled with organic olive oil. Simple but I loved it, because I have never tasted tomatoes as naturally sweet as the ones I had in Beirut. Their pizzas, baked in wood-burning, bell-shaped brick ovens, are yummy too!
Did you know that Marie Claire, an international women's magazine, has been launched in Kuwait and their second issue is already in newsstands? Winner of the Best Women's Magazine and Magazine of the Year award for 2005, the magazine reportedly has over 14 million readers worldwide with 26 editions in 13 languages across the world. Marie Clair - Kuwait is in Arabic of course. The magazine offers an editorial mix of journalism with glamour, fashion and beauty coverage, and feature stories of lifestyle and serious women related issues. All by an Arabic editorial team. Have you read it? If yes, what do you think of it?
