I’m surprised Bab Al Shams is not on the itinerary of every tourist who visits Dubai. More than those ridiculous Desert Safaris, this hotel offers a much better “Dubai experience”. Yes, the whole extravagant Arabic fort architecture is artificial (but then again, isn’t most of …
I had a couple of things to do out of the office last Wednesday, so I decided to schedule a breakfast tasting and just work from outside in between my meetings. It’s a tough call to pick between Jones the Grocer right …
Last night, I was invited to attend a mysterious “Cosmic Wishes” dinner at Lafayette Gourmet. Without a second thought, I RSVP-ed, as the events and food at Lafayette Gourmet never cease to please. Unsurprisingly, the dinner showcased their offerings for the upcoming …
I decided to do a quick breakfast tasting before starting work today, again. I’ve been catching Snaps of other bloggers’ experiences at No3 and was quite excited to try this place out- I mean come ON- it’s a WAFFLE house! First things …
M is still out of town, so I took the liberty to schedule an early breakfast review yesterday morning, before rushing back to work. I work for M, just in case you’re wondering, but since he’s not here, I don’t have to …
Did you know that The Coffee Club has been around since 1989 and comes from Down Under? I certainly didn’t, until recently. Over the last 8 years, The Coffee Club has grown to expand all over the world, and it’s no surprise considering …
I’m back, Dear Readers (I’m looking at you, Baig). About the long hiatus- I was busy traveling due to some work and family commitments, and had pretty much no time to Snapchat or Instagram, let alone open my blog. I got back …
I’m not in the UAE as I write this. I had to travel for some work, and according to social media, I’m missing out on a number of exciting events each day I’m away. I gather that October and November are the …
I was invited to the VIP preview at Pi Dubai, a couple of weeks back, which I was quite looking forward to as it was organized by Sadu PR- and they tend to organize great events. I was, however, also prepared to …
A Canadian import taking over the Big-and-Hearty breakfast scene at The Beach in JBR, Eggspection hardly needs an introduction. The clever name had put this joint on my must-visit list, so when I received an invite to review them, I naturally jumped …
Last Saturday, I walked into this beautifully sun-kissed, rustic, loft-like establishment with ethnic prints and patterns, which was a clear embodiment of Latin American roots with a chic and modern twist. With exposed ceilings decorated with untreated wooden doors, the decor was …
Not even 20 years old yet, Magnolia Bakery is quite the international phenomenon. Often accredited to have started the cupcake craze in the 90s (that hasn’t really died out till date); the bakery soared to fame after being featured in one of …
I’m a sucker for breakfast. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. Breakfast is the biggest motivator for me to get out of bed, and I can have breakfast items for lunch and dinner too; and see nothing wrong with that …
Toko at Vida Downtown – which looks like a high-end underground den straight out of Tokyo- needs no introduction, as it’s one of the most popular Sushi spots in Dubai; and was even on Kimmy K’s list of places worthy of consuming cals …
800 Degrees Pizza is a welcome addition to the Mall of the Emirates extension, offering Dubai a new, fast-food concept in wood fire pizza. Although I was invited to the media preview, I base my review not on the media preview alone- …
