      <description>&lt;p align="justify"&gt;It was Dr. Stanley Pearle, an Optometrist in Savannah, Georgia, USA who laid the basis for the Pearle chain of opticians in 1961. In that year he opened his first optician business, which stood out for its striking and distinctive shop display. In contrast to the usual practice, he didn't hide his spectacles away in a drawer under the counter, but displayed them so that every customer could see his entire product range: a form of display that is still the same for opticians today, 40 years later.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="justify"&gt;The Pearle chain of Opticians in Europe has more than 1000 branches including the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Poland, Portugal, Italy, Finland and Estonia.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="justify"&gt;In the Middle East, Pearle branches are located in Kuwait, KSA and UAE.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="justify"&gt;Pearle aim is to provide optimum customer friendliness and a very high standard of service. Pearle is the only chain of Opticians with its own production facility for prescription lenses.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;Responsible for conducting eye examinations, contact lens assessments, production of order &amp; aftercare.

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Shake Shack, the iconic burger brand, was introduced to New York in 2004 by Union Square Hospitality Group "USHG", a dining and hospitality group founded by the famous restaurateur; Danny Meyer, that includes some of New York's most beloved and highly acclaimed restaurants.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Upon opening the doors of its first location in New York City's Madison Square Park, Shake Shack immediately became a neighborhood fixture, with New Yorkers, tourists and people from all walks of life gathering to enjoy some Shack goodness.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our classic Shack burger is simple, balanced but most of all, flavorful. A buttery soft potato bun combines with the Shack's special burger blend, made from 100% all natural American Black Angus beef to create the perfect burger-to-bun ratio. This succulent and juicy combination is served with American cheese, fresh lettuce, tomatoes and Shack special sauce, and is guaranteed free from hormones and antibiotics. Shake Shack's special technique of ‘smashing' the burger on a chrome griddle creates a seared outside and juicy inside. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our great burger needs to partner with a great fries, hence Shake Shack prime quality crispy golden crinkle cut fries are 100% free of artificial trans fats, making them some of the crunchiest fries around. They are also 25% less fat than most fries, so go ahead, crunch away!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In addition to its unrivalled selection of burgers and quality fries, the Shake Shack menu also includes a variety of thick shakes, and creamy, soft and intensely rich premium frozen custard (ice cream) that are continuously made fresh all day long, so you always receive the best, straight from our machine. Come around the back of the kitchen and have a look!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At Shake Shack we believe there are no shortcuts to quality, so we pride ourselves on sourcing premium ingredients across all our food, and everything is made fresh and cooked to order.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Shake Shack modern take on the ‘roadside' burger Shack ambiance and feel is linked to where it all started at Madison Square Park in New York. This unique feel will carry on with every Shake Shack to open in your neighborhood. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We are seeking a highly motivated, talented individual who is willing to embark on an exciting and challenging journey. &lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Almost 40 years ago, two young New Yorkers, Joel Dean and Giorgio DeLuca, opened their gourmet food emporium in SoHo, an up-and-coming artists’ neighborhood in Manhattan. Offering customers a sumptuous celebration of food, a place to experience all of the pleasures of cooking and eating, the original store suggested a turn-of-the-century food department, with high ceiling fans spinning over a vast array of handcrafted products and artisan foods lining high, white walls.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Today, DEAN &amp; DELUCA is an international purveyor of gourmet and quality specialty foods, DEAN &amp; DELUCA specialty products and high-end kitchenware with operations throughout the United States, Tokyo, Kuwait and Qatar. DEAN &amp; DELUCA cafés are found in these countries as well, in addition to Taipei and Dubai. In addition to its corporate gift catalog and e-commerce site, DEAN &amp; DELUCA also markets its private label products to other retailers and wholesalers throughout the world.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Strolling DEAN &amp; DELUCA in Kuwait is a food adventure, with discoveries at every turn. Friendly staff members offer tastes - of cheeses, charcuterie, olive oils, exotic fruits, breads and pastries, chocolates and Arabic sweets. Meat and Fish counters display the finest products, locally and internationally procured. For those who want to share the joy of eating chef-prepared delicacies at home, DEAN &amp; DELUCA offers an extensive and breathtaking array of freshly prepared foods to go, from chicken pot pie to paella to sautéed peppers to pomegranate seed-garnished Middle Eastern salads.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Providing expert advice on all things culinary is a DEAN &amp; DELUCA trademark. At the in-store kitchen, chefs prepare dishes before your eyes, demonstrating techniques to try at home as well as tastes of dishes ranging from Pasta Pomodoro to the French fish stew called bouillabaisse. Looking for that perfect gift? A concierge service is happy to consult on the selection of delicious delicacies for a gift basket that will be treasured – and eaten with delight.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The in-store DEAN &amp; DELUCA Café provides a welcome resting spot in which to enjoy a gourmet sandwich, savory soup, custom salad, or a home-baked pastry accompanied by DEAN &amp; DELUCA’s signature, a steaming pink strawberry latte.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Hostess is responsible for table reservations and effective control of flow of guests. She is to lead and seat guests and answer telephone queries.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Almost 40 years ago, two young New Yorkers, Joel Dean and Giorgio DeLuca, opened their gourmet food emporium in SoHo, an up-and-coming artists’ neighborhood in Manhattan. Offering customers a sumptuous celebration of food, a place to experience all of the pleasures of cooking and eating, the original store suggested a turn-of-the-century food department, with high ceiling fans spinning over a vast array of handcrafted products and artisan foods lining high, white walls.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Today, DEAN &amp; DELUCA is an international purveyor of gourmet and quality specialty foods, DEAN &amp; DELUCA specialty products and high-end kitchenware with operations throughout the United States, Tokyo, Kuwait and Qatar. DEAN &amp; DELUCA cafés are found in these countries as well, in addition to Taipei and Dubai. In addition to its corporate gift catalog and e-commerce site, DEAN &amp; DELUCA also markets its private label products to other retailers and wholesalers throughout the world.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Strolling DEAN &amp; DELUCA in Kuwait is a food adventure, with discoveries at every turn. Friendly staff members offer tastes - of cheeses, charcuterie, olive oils, exotic fruits, breads and pastries, chocolates and Arabic sweets. Meat and Fish counters display the finest products, locally and internationally procured. For those who want to share the joy of eating chef-prepared delicacies at home, DEAN &amp; DELUCA offers an extensive and breathtaking array of freshly prepared foods to go, from chicken pot pie to paella to sautéed peppers to pomegranate seed-garnished Middle Eastern salads.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Providing expert advice on all things culinary is a DEAN &amp; DELUCA trademark. At the in-store kitchen, chefs prepare dishes before your eyes, demonstrating techniques to try at home as well as tastes of dishes ranging from Pasta Pomodoro to the French fish stew called bouillabaisse. Looking for that perfect gift? A concierge service is happy to consult on the selection of delicious delicacies for a gift basket that will be treasured – and eaten with delight.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The in-store DEAN &amp; DELUCA Café provides a welcome resting spot in which to enjoy a gourmet sandwich, savory soup, custom salad, or a home-baked pastry accompanied by DEAN &amp; DELUCA’s signature, a steaming pink strawberry latte.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We are looking for a Bakery specialty Head Chef who will head up run &amp; the Bakery Kitchen in its day to day operation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ideal candidate must have a formal culinary education, advanced culinary and artistic skills, knowledge of modern cooking methods and at least 3 years of practical experience&lt;/p&gt;</description>

You think of exotic flavours that combine delicious taste and mouth watering texture.  You think of delicious hot, iced and blended beverages pairing perfectly with freshly baked pastries. You think&lt;br /&gt;of Starbucks®.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Starbucks Experience is more than a cup of coffee. You get more than a simple coffee when you visit a Starbucks® store - you get great people, first-rate music, a comfortable and upbeat meeting place, and sound advice on brewing excellent coffee at home. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is also the conversation and environment that surround a customer's&lt;br /&gt;experience. In part, that means creating a comfortable oasis away from the demands of work and home. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;visit the website : http://me.starbucks.com/en-US/&lt;/p&gt;</description>
