How much is a Krispy Kreme Doughnut?

Wanna keep cool in the 40+ degrees C heat, and its only early summer here (Wait till it gets to the mad 50s in August-September!), look no further then the many malls here in Abu Dhabi!

Khalidiyah Mall only recently opened, and has a wealth of shops, and an incredible carpark filled with the latest AMG Mercs, M-powered BMWs, all the S-models from Audi you can think of, as well as American SUVs which probably don't sell very well these days in their native country!



Location: Level A, Khalidiyah Mall
Tel: +971 2 635 455

Dunno how much a Krispy Kreme is in Malaysia, but here it is 4 AED or roughly RM$4. Yummmm ... I struggled to not eat the fella before taking these photos :-)


One more shot before I scoffed down the donut ... this simple glazed donut was sinfully sweet, but sooooooo very delicious. Perfectly glazed!

I quite like this mall, there are a number of shops, from perfumeries, to western brand-names such as Nike , Body Shop et al, and a large food court upstairs, as well as the large Lulu Supermarket (or was that Hypermarket?).

actually along the street where i am staying in Al Musref, i can see lots of 7 series, cayeens, Q7, hummers, 911s, even my niebor got an escalades and a cayeen park outside of his villa, and this street is just a normal housing area..not even close to Damansara Hieghts class.
