Chantal and a companion visit shopping destinations in Kuwait, comparing a private Lulu supermarket and a government-run co-op, browsing local brands and snacks, then pick up Syrian-style broasted chicken to eat at home with pita, hummus, pickles and fries. They taste and describe the broasted chicken as crispy, juicy, tender and less greasy than KFC, and sample other local items like Almarai dairy, Barbican, Nutella/Kinder products, and Nescafe instant coffee.
