Food shopping in Kuwait....

14 years ago
Hi,

I arrived in Kuwait last week and am settling in slowly but surely.

At the moment I'm staying in and around Mangaf where our company transit apartments are - I have found a sultan centre nearby (kind of like a warehouse) and the supermarket at Al Kout that looks nice.

Does anyone know any other supermarkets around that sell most things?

Also, I'm looking to buy some 'oriental foods' - sort of the stuff I would buy in China town in London. Does anyone know a good place to go? I guess with the large filipino / chinese communities there should be some markets somewhere.

Don't suppose anyone knows a good place to buy Itialian ingredients (if there is any?). I'm thinking 00 flour and other stuff like that - might be a bit too specialised but will see.

Any help appreciated.
Thanks
Andrew
