Dear Bagel, you’re so underrated.
Let’s face it, Bagels are round bread made of happiness. Just kidding, they’re mostly carbs made from simple ingredients such as flour, salt, water, and yeast. Bagels are best enjoyed warm, regardless of what you decide to eat them with.
Did you know that Bagels used to be spelled Beigels? Right, we didn’t either. But now that we have thought about it, it makes perfect sense because technically that is the way it is pronounced. Bagel is pronounced bei-gel not bag-el but spelled the other way, so we are done with English.
Language nerd differences aside, we bring to you a bagel-licious (#sorrynotsorry) tour of Kuwait!
1. East Cafe:
First up, is East Cafe Est 2017. East specializes in specialty coffee and handmade sandwiches but has amazing (also colorful) options to choose from as far as bagels go.
LETS GO BAGEL AT EAST !
2. Wild Cafe:
Next up, is WILD Cafe, which is one of the few cafes that welcomes your fur babies. It also has plenty of distinctive spreads and toppings.
P.S. bagels are NOT dog-friendly, so please make sure your babies are fed properly before they embark on this bagel searching journey with you.
3. Gia:
Gia doesn’t need an introduction since it has made a name for itself here in Kuwait.
However, many don’t know that they have amazing bagels. With two locations one in Salmiya, the other in Kuwait City, you have no excuse but to try them!
4. Eggcellent:
Feeling zaatar, but also in the mood to try something new? ZAATAR BAGEL.
The Zaatar bagel is an eggcellent way to start your mornings.
5. Baker & Spice:
Need to spice up your life? and I’m not talking about spices.
Baker & Spice is an artisan kitchen, food shop, and restaurant that prepares every single dish from scratch (including their bread), in their kitchens.
Their food is fresh, organic and includes various local seasonal ingredients.
6. Lazy Cat
If you’re a lazy cat and you know it, clap your hands! Just kidding, but really if you are in the mood to try a new concept that tastes amazing where you can get some good instagram posts, then you have to try Lazy Cat.
Lazy Cat specializes in brunch and making food look like a dream. Is this a burger? NOPE. It’s a Bagel.
So, here you have it. Our favorite bagels in Kuwait. Have we missed any?
