Review: Smash Burger

26 Dec

Smash01

This week we were invited to check out the 3rd branch of Smash Burger opening in Al Mahboula (on the other side of Spoons). I have always wanted to try their burgers (get smashed) but I never had the chance before. I’m just glad that I did this time!

We arrived right on time, the place looked really good, and they had a nice seating area outside, which was perfect for this weather. We were warmly welcomed by the team behind Smash burger and taken inside for a sneak peak.

What I noticed is that everyone was all smiley and happy, and it felt genuine (which we don’t see much often around here anymore). Even the guys who are behind preparing the order back in the kitchen were all smiley and happy to see us.

We even got the chance to get inside the kitchen and see how the proper smash burger gets SMASHED! I never really knew that’s what they meant by it :P But it was actually cool.

Our order was probably enough for 6 people (thanks guys for being generous) and consisted of the following:

Our own burger creation (it had beef, double cheese, mushroom, onion, bacon, avocado, and an amazing sauce that I can’t remember)

Picture 123

I wasn’t very hungry but I was VERY happy to finish it. It was really juicy (which I love), the bun did not break or anything (which they bring all the way from the States), the bacon maybe a little bit dry but that’s ok cuz I simply LOVE bacon. The burger might look abit greasy, but to me it didn’t taste greasy at all.

As for the fries, we tried the regular fries, chili cheese fries and the smash fries (which has rosemary, olive oil and garlic). Am an original fries lover so I would vote for the original.

We also tried the fried pickles (I know this might sound weird to some if you haven’t tried it before, but it just taste like pickles!) which were good and not oily. Fried jalapenos and the sweet potatoes fries. What did I think? I would go for the fried pickles again.  As for the hotdog, well hotdog is hotdog I guess :P

Picture 128

I have always wondered how can someone eat a burger and have a milkshake with it. Well the wondering stopped that day when I took a leap of faith and tried it, not bad…not bad at all!!!!

We tried 2 kinds of milkshakes, one of them had Oreo, the other probably vanilla if am not mistaken.

Picture 121

After that huge meal, we were happy to sit with the team behind Smash Burger to chit chat. We got to know a little bit about Smash Burger history and what’s their future plan. I was surprised to know that it’s the first Smash Burger to open outside the US! They have over 200 stores in the US and 3 already in Kuwait. Don’t worry guys if you think the place is far from your house, it will be very close to you before you know it!

A big thank you to the CEO Khalid Hajjar, Jillian & Sophie For being sweet and helpful. We shall visit again :)

Event: P2BK 2013

Event: Red Bull 3rd Flugtag

25 Oct

Another year and another Flugtag happening in Kuwait. This is my second time attending the event (read about last year HERE) and I honestly had mixed feelings about it as it wasnt that great last year, but I definitely wanted to go to see how they changed and if there was something different.

To start with the invitation, it was probably the coolest part! I just appreciate cool invitations, which happened to be as an airline ticket with a boarding pass.

A good thing that happened this year is that they actually started on time, not like last year’s event. I was glad to see them bringing someone from outside to present the show, which happen to be Rayya who represent Scoop on MBC. I personally like her but some people find her irritating I guess lol.

Now, I do understand that we don’t have a lot of open space with facilities in Kuwait that they can use for this event, but I REALLY don’t think Marina is the right choice. It’s true its gonna be on their benefit as Marina Crescent is usually crowded on weekends which means they will have more people watching, but you can’t really ask people to stand and watch for 4 hours  with kids running around and people holding cameras! It’s true we were sitting in the VIP area, but we got a glimpse of that too.

Lets talk about the participants shall we?

I didn’t get the chance to take a lot of pics, but most of the teams have done a great job in building their “plane” or whatever the shape is! it seems they also spent enough time deciding on their theme and customs. However, 90% of them failed to actually fly!

Each team also had around 1 minutes before they actually jump to perform a show, where most of them danced on Gangnam Style, which was kinda funny :) Check out this video that we shot:

Weather? That day was not a good day at all. Humidity, windy every now and then, then it turned cloudy. We were not prepared for that, shorts were a MUST!

Overall, the event was better than last year I guess. I really hope next year they can figure out a better place to host it at, and maybe we would participate! who knows ;)

Thank you Red Bull team and thank you Wataniya!
