I love Asian food, blah blah blah. That in no way means I’ll like ANY Asian food and can’t tell good versions from bad though. A meal at Ramusake, however, authorizes me to tell you with full conviction this place is good- …
Ramadan, our favorite month of the year just bode us farewell. I really hope I’m around to be blessed with many more Ramadan’s to come, but until the next one, I’m going to do what I do best: breakfast. Boy oh boy, …
I did something unusual today (for Ramadan). I broke free from the ubiquitous Iftar tents that revolve around Arabesque cuisine (with a bit of Indian, if you’re lucky), and instead accepted an invite to try out the Summer Sunset menu at Katana …
It’s been a few weeks since I dined at this elegant establishment, and it upsets me how quickly time flies before I get to share my experiences with you all. Oh well, better late than never, right? 🙂 The Artisan; by Enoteca …
There are three kinds of tastings: The kind that you’re paid to do The kind that you do because the PR person is too nice to say no to The kind that you’re legitimately excited about and want in your life Tresind …
While I’m super duper excited about Ramadan, I’m not too crazy about buffet lines, and sometimes want options that aren’t entirely Arabesque; which is why it was wildly refreshing to go for the Wednesday evening brunch at Intersect By Lexus the other …
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Brasserie 2.0 does the best theme nights. I was floored by their BBQ theme night, and again by their pre-Ramadan Iftar preview. The ambiance was (as always) clean, modern and simple; Ramadan elements …
A new mall has opened up right across Jumeirah Beach Hotel, and with it come glad tidings in the form of new restaurants (yay!), one of which is Ayam El Ezz –so Lebanese that you forget  for a while that you’re in …
Whenever I get an invitation from The Palace Downtown, I’m fleet of foot to accept. Is it because it always feels like a bit of a royal affair, on virtue of the decor and the name of the hotel? Or is it …
Hakkasan has been on my radar for almost as long as I’ve been in Dubai- 2 years. You can insert my Asian food chant here. Â In my defense, (a) 2 years in Dubai feel like 2 months, (b)there are SO. MANY restaurants …
A new trend is surfacing in Dubai. The wildly extravagant Friday brunches have been around and in full swing for a while now, but the insatiable appetites of denizens and tourists alike have paved way for a more low key Saturday brunche …
If your ears/eyes aren’t already bleeding from my redundant chant of “I love Asian food”, there’s something wrong with you. Nevertheless, let me reiterate that I love Asian food, and was hence super thrilled by the invitation to review Wakame, a …
I’ve been to More Cafe more than once, and while I’ve tried many memorable things there, one thing that really stood out was the More burger. I love a good burger, and I remember being very impressed because the burger patty was …
“Stomping Grounds serves up some of the best coffee in Dubai, arguably only second to Espresso Lab and at par with The Sum of Us”. This is the almost chant I’ve been hearing since January, when Stomping Grounds officially announced it’s arrival …
I received an invite to try out the Royal China in DIFC last week, and truth be told, I only accepted because I had a slow weekend. Even after I accepted, I was a little wary going in, and the fact that …
