Coucou, I hope you are all having a good Holy Week. Today’s post is very special to me because we are celebrating my husband’s 35th birthday. I decided to take him out for lunch in Dai Forni at Four Seasons Hotel, Kuwait, and I thought of making a review of our experience. This will be my first review entry in Kuwait, which I will try to blog more about.

Dai Forni is set on the 21st floor of Four Seasons Hotel Kuwait at Burj Alshaya. It offers panoramic city views that set the scene for a lively meal of an authentic Italian dish. From its wood-fired pizzas, homemade pasta, interactive displays, and espresso bar under the high ceilings of the contemporary indoor-outdoor Italian restaurant. We chose lunch over dinner to enjoy the daytime view of the city and to take advantage of the nice weather with a blue sky which doesn’t happen all the time here.

The entrance sets the scene for the creative cuisine, the ambiance sets the stage and a striking interior, dominated by three massive copper-sheathed wood-burning ovens.

Dai Forni offers an à la- carte menu only. They have a refined and mouthwatering selection. Browsing the menu on their digital tablet menu makes me want to order all of them because they all look appealing. Whenever I cannot decide which one to get, most of the time, I depend on my order to the waiter/ waitress. Good thing he made great suggestions for food and drinks which I was very pleased about.

Since it was “Holy Week” and we are both Catholic, one of the traditions is to refrain from eating meat during Lent. So we avoid the meat on the menu and stick to fish and vegetable options. Dai Forni is open for both lunch & dinner. More details on https://www.fourseasons.com/kuwait/dining/restaurants/dai-forni/

For the starter: Burrata Pugliese and Seabass Carpaccio

For the main: Branzino di lenza arrostito ( wild sea bass with braised artichoke, spinach and mint-lemon emulsion. Pumpkin Risotto with orange, pistacio and soft taleggio cheese

And of course, your birthday wouldn’t be complete without a cake and a candle to blow. A special thanks to our dear friend for this delicious cake.

Overall, we were so happy with our food choices, it was one of the best burrata I ever had! The texture of the pumpkin risotto is one of a kind, but the portion of the food was just. Great service and an awe-inspiring ambiance of the restaurant. The staff was welcoming and friendly and made great suggestions for food and drinks. And also, I like their cappuccino, as usual, coffee is always a good idea to end your good meal. So far, it’s the best Italian restaurant in Kuwait we had.

It was indeed a truly authentic and individual Italian service style, combined with high-class cuisine steeped in Italian tradition and history.

By the way, ladies before I forget, for sure you will love this, don’t miss visiting their toilet, its worth for a selfie, haha!

I made a short video of today to show you more how stunning this restaurant is and a glimpse of Kuwait City. Just press the red play button to watch it. PS: Apologies for the poor quality, my back phone camera is not working properly.

But if you like a romantic evening in Kuwait downtown (who doesn’t right?), Dai Forni is for you. Thank you for your time and I will see you on my next post.

Bisous,

C’est Jess
