Unwrapping Kuwait’s Ultimate Comfort Food Experience

GUILTY has quickly become a favorite among food lovers for their indulgent approach to comfort food. The concept was born from the creative mind of a talented Kuwaiti chef who wanted to elevate comfort food to a whole new level. With a deep passion for quality and flavor, this chef envisioned a brand that would deliver more than just meals—it would offer an experience of culinary indulgence that resonates with anyone who loves great food.

Specializing in gourmet burgers, sandwiches, and fries, GUILTY prides itself on using high-quality ingredients to create dishes that are as flavorful as they are satisfying. Whether you’re in the mood for a juicy burger, a hearty sandwich, or something a little different, GUILTY offers something for everyone.

Their mission is simple: to deliver an experience that allows you to indulge in your guilty pleasures without compromise. From the moment you take your first bite, it’s clear that GUILTY is dedicated to making every meal special, thanks to the vision and expertise of a chef who understands the art of indulgence.

Recently, our office was lucky enough to receive a box containing mouthwatering food from GUILTY, and it turned an ordinary workday into a feast we won’t soon forget. The excitement in the air was palpable as soon as I told my team about the delivery. We had heard rave reviews about GUILTY Kuwait, so anticipation was high. We made all the necessary preparations, and by the time our lunch break rolled around, we were ready to dive into what we hoped would be an unforgettable culinary experience.

But before I dive into the details of our meal, let me take you back to where it all began. GUILTY was born out of a passion for indulgent comfort food that doesn’t compromise on quality. The founders wanted to create a brand that delivered not just food, but an experience—one that evokes the joy of unapologetically enjoying every bite. This philosophy quickly resonated with food lovers across Kuwait, and GUILTY has since become a go-to for anyone craving delicious, satisfying meals delivered right to their door.

As we opened it, we were greeted by the irresistible aroma of freshly prepared food. The box was packed with an impressive selection of items from their menu, each one more enticing than the last. There was enough food to generously feed our team of four, with a little extra to spare—just the way we like it.

Here’s what was inside the box, along with our impressions of each item.

Guilty Beef Burger
The Guilty Beef Burger was a sight to behold. A smashed, juicy beef patty nestled between soft, buttery brioche buns, with fresh lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and a generous slathering of their special sauce. The first bite was heavenly—the beef was perfectly smashed, bursting with flavor. The sauce added just the right amount of tanginess and richness, elevating the burger to a whole new level. This burger was classic comfort food done right, and it quickly became a favorite among the team.

Guilty Chicken Burger
Next up was the Guilty Chicken Burger, which was equally impressive. The chicken was crispy on the outside yet tender and juicy on the inside, encased in a golden-brown coating that provided a satisfying crunch. For those who love a good chicken burger, this one hit all the right notes.

Pastrami on Rye
The Pastrami on Rye was a revelation. Thick slices of pastrami were piled high between two slices of rye bread, with just the right amount of mustard to cut through the richness of the meat. The pastrami was smoky, tender, and packed with flavor, while the rye bread provided a sturdy, slightly tangy base that held everything together beautifully. This was an instant hit, with its classic combination of flavors that left us all craving more. It was no surprise that it quickly became one of the office favorites.

Pastrami on Saj
For a different twist on the classic, the Pastrami on Saj offered a unique Middle Eastern take on the pastrami sandwich. Instead of rye bread, the pastrami was wrapped in soft, thin saj bread, which was slightly chewy and perfectly complemented the tender meat. The sandwich was generously stuffed with pastrami and a touch of mustard, creating a deliciously savory bite.

Beef Barbacoa
The Beef Barbacoa was a true delight. Tender, slow-cooked beef was seasoned with a blend of spices that gave it a rich, smoky flavor with a hint of heat. Each bite was packed with flavor, and the beef was so tender it practically melted in your mouth. This was comfort food at its finest, and it left us wanting more.

Hot Honey Chicken Tenders
The Hot Honey Chicken Tenders were a pleasant surprise. The tenders were drizzled with a hot honey glaze that added a perfect blend of sweetness and spice, making them incredibly addictive. The honey glaze was not overly sweet, and the heat was just enough to keep you reaching for another piece.

Barbacoa Fries
The Barbacoa Fries were an indulgence we couldn’t resist. Crispy French fries were topped with the same tender, flavorful beef barbacoa, along with melted cheese, jalapeños, and a drizzle of sour cream. The combination of the crispy fries with the rich, smoky beef and the tangy toppings was absolutely delicious. Each bite was a burst of flavor, and it was so satisfying that it was hard to stop eating, even when we were full.

French Fries
No meal would be complete without a classic side of French fries, and GUILTY delivered. These were not just any fries—they were perfectly golden, crispy on the outside, and fluffy on the inside. They were the ideal companion to the burgers and sandwiches. Whether dipped in ketchup or enjoyed on their own.
