Mac and Cheese? by youngthegiant
Are there any restaurants in Riyadh that serve Mac and Cheese? I know it's a comfort food, but I could use some right now!
Only Canadians love Mac n Cheese so much. I haven't found a place that made any good Mac n Cheese. All big failures for such a simple meal. So I just make my own. G'luck. Read More

Supplements by MkSirawan
Anyone know were the Optimum Nutrition retail store for bodybuilding supplements is located?
GNC is a rip off worldwide, and ON is one of the best products when it comes to WHEY. I personally searched 3 years ago but couldn't find a proper registered dealer for ON. And I suggest you only get products from a authorized dealer as there are ... Read More

He needs to renew his license, otherwise those papers don't mean a thing. And you need to go to the Kharj office as their databases aren't interlinked from the last time I checked, which was almost a year ago. Read More

Depending on what your experience is and what you will be doing here exactly, 23,000 + 7,000 for housing seems like a very reasonable offer. Lots of companies are doing restructuring and the salaries are all being adjusted this year, too many over ... Read More

Used Oil Disposal by beezer
Hey, Wondering if anybody knows a proper oil disposal place here in Riyadh? If you say the backyard, or the sink I'll kill you.
Actually, oil down the sink will either clog up the sink, or cause a backup in the sewer line connected to your home (think of why the sewers always reach the surface here, and how much oil people use here, combined with sand). Also, pouring a ... Read More

You can never say that one service provider is better than the other here. What works in your neighborhood flawlessly, may work horribly at mine. I lived in one area and had great signal reception on my Mobily Wimax. When I moved, that changed ... Read More
