Al Boom is to be found in a large wooden merchant dhow (boat) anchored next to the SAS hotel. An attentive crew serve prime steaks, grilled foods, chicken specialities, lobster, shrimps and local fish. The salad bar and the appetiser buffet are rich and varied. The bread is baked in traditional clay ovens.

A central courtyard of old houses behind the Catholic church is slowly being colonised by restaurants. The new Beit7 retains many original features, including a large tree growing through the middle. Mediterranean and Pacific Rim fuse to good effect and the mocktails (nonalcoholic cocktails) are worth tasting. There are two private rooms upstairs seating six and 12 people.

Conveniently located in the restaurant complex adjacent to the Marina Mall, the Blue Fig is one of the latest and trendiest fusion cuisine outlets. Dark and sultry ambience with a mellow live band (yes, a live band... times are a changing in Kuwait). The concept is simple: any dish you choose is served on a thin pizzalike crust. Servings aren’t generous, so the Blue Fig may be an ideal place for a light evening nibble, but the food is flavoursome.

Kuwaitis and expatriates alike are drawn to this upmarket American burger bar overlooking the sea, complete with a plethora of video screens and recorded music. Fuddruckers prides itself on providing the best hamburgers in the world, so judge for yourself as you help yourself to a variety of burger trimmings. Also on the menu are fish sandwiches. For dessert, visit a separate counter piled with scrumptious cookies and brownies.

It may look like a ’40s throwback, but this has to be one of the most consistently good chains of burger bars in the world.
