Planet Hollywood opening in Kuwait
I found out today that Planet Hollywood will be opening in the basement of the Olympia towers in Salmiya at the end of summer. The only good thing that might come out of this is if Sylvester Stallone comes for the opening and I stalk him until he agrees to take a picture with me.
Update: Turns out The Noodle House is also opening in Olympia in June.

Why would someone open a restaurant in the basement?
12. GeordieLass | March 29th, 2009 at 11:55 pm
:O exactly!

its the basement of a mall… its common for food courts or restaurants to be placed in the basement.
Basement does not equal dungeon

I hated it in Amman, it went out of business and I know the person who bought the terminator 2 statue, it was wow. I have pics of it somewhere

“its common for food courts or restaurants to be placed in the basement”
I dont mind food courts in basements…. but that is not always the case! True, it does not mean dungeon… but its also not “common”… specially not in the US!

Ugh!!!! WHYYYYYY??? When are we gonna start Getting the Good Places….
We Need Fogo de Chão in Kuwiat!!!!

Mmmm so who is dumb idiot that thought it is still successfull ? Even a Hard Rock at the sea didn’t make it successfull. Food sucks and the atmosphere spells cheesiness all over. Now a noodle house is something I would go for.
20. TweeZ | March 30th, 2009 at 11:32 am
I hope they get the terminator!

Yet another tired and crappy franchise way past it’s expiry date. Planet Hollywood’s 15 minutes of fame ended sometime in the mid 1990s
And no you won’t get any celebs at the opening because they all cashed out and escaped the embarrassment when they could!

23. Abdulrahman | March 30th, 2009 at 2:31 pm

24. Rye | March 30th, 2009 at 2:51 pm
The Planet Hollywood in Paris is located in a basement.
25. 2twentythree3 | March 30th, 2009 at 3:07 pm
Let’s just hope the food doesn’t taste like Hard Rock Cafe…………. *vomits in bag*

31. rad-dude81 | March 31st, 2009 at 7:23 am
Tried the one in London and it was horrid. I second Zaydoun, Planet Hollywood is way past its prime.
32. David/ BBQ Lover | March 31st, 2009 at 1:05 pm
Has anyone else besides us ever noticed the bad bod odor smell in Hard Rock?!
