Definition ...DEFINITION OF A SHOPPING MALL;
From WordNet:
mercantile establishment consisting of a carefully landscaped complex of shops representing leading merchandisers; usually includes restaurants and a convenient parking area
From Sneer.net:
the market-place that killed the high street; a synthetic conglomeration of shops and teenagers reproduced along more or less identical lines throughout the country, so that intelligent visitors may experience the same chill of alienation wherever their travels take them
From an intelligent individual very close to us all:
more than just some shops; a destination; has a variety of stores, entertainment and some places to eat

I like Landmark ...Was the first Mall hub took me too and I had no idea Villagio existed! Have a soft spot for Landmark because it's 'manageable'. I think Megamart was there too, wasn't it?
However, Villagio has more choice I guess.
Gosh, I hate having being born under the sigh of Libra - too many choices and not enough time to make a decision :D

I visit Landmark most often ...I visit Landmark most often these days as it's nearest (well City Center is just as near, but going there is a pain in the ass), and it's grown on me a lot. It has a nice atmosphere. And the nice girl in Costa gave me a free coffee the other day when I bought a bag of beans.

Landmark, it is quick and easy, plenty of underground parking ...I went out to the Landmark mall on Saturday and there were cars all over the place in the dirt, up on the curbs. I drove over to the underground parking lot and there were 4 cars. Do people not know that there is an underground parking lot there.
It also takes less time to go the Landmark then to park at the city center mall and I live right by the city center.
FISH DO

BTW ...Vote before you type your comment.
I go for "ease of access". My favorite is the one that is easiest to get to and has the most parking. For me that is Villagio. Although, it seems each mall has at least one shop that I like that is unique to that mall.
It is funny how malls are on there way out in America, but on the way up here.

City Centre - The worst shopping Centre for Parking ...City Centre is having the best interior, best collection of shopping centres, etc.,
If we like to visit we have to sacrifice 30 to 120 minutes for finding a parking place. I even returned back due to the lack of parking.
The shopping Centre is best if you travel by Public Transport or Private Taxi or Somebody drops you there.
If somebody likes to park and shop, it is not for you guys....
Still you are compelled to go there, don't visit in peak hours and in holidays. If you are supposed to visit during peak hours, it is better to park your car ouside the city centre parking.
My preference is by he following order
Family Food Centre - Al Nasr & Airport
Villageo
LuLu hyper
Food Palace - Jaidah Fly-over
Centre Point
Hayat Plaza
Jareer Book Store
Safari
Safeer
Ciy Centre
I have not visit Landmark, Royal Plaza & The Mall. Otherwise City Centre will go down further.
