holy smokes!!which restaurant you eating at???
Get used to it, London is SO expensive !!! don’t even think of buying any electronics from over there its too damn expensive
some regular place called “the diner”, nothing fancy
exactly! Welcome to London! lol
you have seen nothing yet :)
you should write a review about the shawarma at Rannoosh while you are there ;)
Actually, electronics are pretty cheap there. A macbook costs like 700 pounds tax free at the airport. You should get one on the way back, by that time they would probably launch the new macbook with leopard.
:: DAMN !
loool try living there for 8 years!
So with that in mind, a happy meal would cost 10KD?
Man, 1KD would get me like one bitten nugget?
how are the chavs treatin u ?
It’s not that expensive. Me and my friend just ordered 2 meals from Hardees and it was 3.600 KD (13 dollars). So there’s no big difference.
or is it my friend and i??
Silly me i thought you said 17 US dollars :S never mind my post :/
try the harrods
Kuwait is disgustingly over priced. Don’t forget we pay no taxes and employ at almost slave labour salaries.
Couple of coffees and 2 cakes at Starbucks will set you back almost $18.
i hate people who compare London to Hawali , of course it’s going to be more expensive coz of like 10 million reasons. ur going to have fun screw money.
If you are still in London then try The Fat Duck :) the best resturant in the world and in 2007 it is rated the second best resturant in the world. and also Manqala.. it’s an iraqi resturant .. the address is: 9 seymour Place, London W1… try their qozy :) and kebab iraqi.. the best..
I found London cheap compared to Kuwait.
Dude its not that expensive. If you don’t like it, you can always go to mcdonalds. Stop complaining about the prices, its not like kuwait is heavenly cheap!! You need to take a break and spend money without complaining once in ur life :P Have fun
Not bad for a welcome gift
Karim AK,
Starbucks is expensive in all cities.
London is expensive, whoever think otherwise must had problems in math
Do a fish and chips review marko!
London is gonna rip your pocket ! Not much good cheap eats. I suggest you try the Salt Beef Sandwich @ Selfridges with English hot mustard or take a bold move with Ox Tongue Sandwich.
Enjoy it my friend and forget money. I love London because its expensive :) I highly recommend the salted beef in Selfridges. YOU HAVE TO TRY IT
Kuwait is just as expensive as London. In fact buying: clothes, electronics and food is cheaper in comparison to buying in Kuwait.
And a tip for you, if you do all your shopping, eating and dining in Central London, you deserve to be punished with hugely inflated prices.
Go outside of W1 and you will get normal prices, just like any major touristic city.
London is the finest city in the world and 100% justifiable in price. You get what you pay for….quality.
Lived thre for 20! Try Lucky 7 for great burgers 127 Westbourne Park Road, London, W2 5QL
Once again try Bradys for the best fish and chips and top mushy peas 513 Old York Road, London, SW18 1TF. Bit out of the wat but worth it
Thanks everyone for the tips. For those of you who think I was complaining about the price of the food I wasn’t.
Hey Mark, atleast you were able to order real BEER across the counter ! How much the two cans would have cost you in Kuwait Black market ? Cheers
im hungry.
Caesar salad :D
so CHEAP ;p
Man that’s more expensive than Japan !!
These are tourist prices. I lived/live in London (W6) from birth. Even if somewhere’s just called “The Diner”, if it’s not McD’s or something similar, it’s gonna be a restaurant. Pretty much how a burger in Tumbleweeds in Kuwait costs more than Burger King.
little italy in baker street the best, and go to nandos in baker street too
