cold stone
By abdulrahmanwael •
today heading to villagio i saw coldstone closed with dust on the counters and a paper from some ministry
haha the "clean" cold stone is now closed bcoz it wasn't following certain hygiene policies or watever.
who would of seen that coming, with all the anticipation on Ql about it opening in qatar i expected a clean icecream shop.
Some of the staff at Coldstone told me that they were having trouble with customs when importing their ice creams. Could this closure be related to those troubles?
I think they should stop throwing the ice creams in the air they really are NOT impressive jugglers. The staff at Coldstone Bahrain are much better at juggling.
Hope they dont close down the QDC...due to some fine "old" wines....
SpikenButchsMom. No Offense Ma'am, but top ministers here are usually connected to the Emirs family (if not actually one of them) and are very proud people indeed, I doubt they would see the funny side of an allegation of corruption but HEY whats it got to do with me? Knock yourself out Girl!
maybe it's not the rolling that's the reason..
lol, MacGyver - that's the whole point of the place. The thing they're 'rolling' it on is the COLD STONE.
Aren't UK bureaucrats allowed to joke around & have a sense of humor?
it says in the notice in the villagio that they failed to comply with health requirements...
SpikenButchsMom. Considering your job description in your profile that was a stupid comment!
Well, perhaps they forgot to pay off the health minister? ;-)
spike if it is financial i dont think they will hav a paper from the ministry saying bla bla bla bla ......

It could be financial difficulties - they've closed locations in the States, too.
It is not unusual here for places such as shops and restaurants to be closed for a certain time. If by accident the (the hygiene department of the ministry) finds one bottle/jar/product in the shop/restaurant that is out of date, they will close shop. Even if that product is somewhere a forgotten item that has been overlooked somewhere. So it is really difficult for us the customer, to know if it was a serious infraction or....
I know this cos in the old days when we still had the Foodcentre at Midmac, they closed the shop for several months because of some jar of a ridiculous product was over the by sell date.

i think they close down the place for like one month and then re-open it. like they did with paul also in villagio(it's seems to be fixed)

oh noooo ... the one in hyatt plaza also close :-( , is that because of the hygenic thingy reason as well ?
my son is a cold stone convert, he used to always want hagen daaz, but since he tried cold stone he never want to go back to hagen daaz.
Noo! I love that place! I think them rolling, slicing, dicing etc the ice cream and throwing it in the air is part of their ''thing'' lol ... such ashame! It'll be open soon no doubt
All cold stone creameries roll the ice cream on the "cold stone"to mix it with whatever extras you choose to go in it.
The one in Hyatt Plaza is also closed
strong>Keep Smiling :-) you never know who is looking
mac gyver, i thought that was a part of their stunt ....
have you seen how the staff just roll the ice cream on top of their tables? am not surprised at all...

usually I go there every friday with my son just before his ice skating lesson. But for the past 2 fridays the place is closed.
