PRECARIOUSLY PERCHED: Workers manually cleaning the fibre-glass tiles at Qurum City Centre.

Checked out the newly opened ‘The Cream and Fudge Factory’ at Bareeq Al Shatti complex. My daughter wanted a strawberry scoop, and it came without the crispy waffle bowl initially, though we asked for one. Looks like the staff are going through ‘launch hiccups’. After sample tasting a couple of flavours, my wife said Muscat’s good old Baskin Robbins was way ahead.

BreadTalk has a lot of yummy-looking stuff, and unfortunately we were not in a mood to indulge ourselves. The whole place was jam packed, and looked like Muscateers have taken a liking for this new eatery in town. We picked up raspberry bread and a cake (I forgot the name). Both were good.
