Banyan Tree have launched two iftar options this Ramadan – one in Alizee, situated right by the poolside amidst greenery, or otherwise – a private 10-seater get-together on the beach. Here’s all you need to know about Banyan Tree’s Iftar Venues this 2026.
Ramadan is moving earlier and earlier each year, and this year – it will likely fall on Wednesday 18th of February 2026, subjected to the sighting of the crescent moon. It’s crazy isn’t it – as we just finished the winter holidays and Term 1 has literally just started! The good thing though – it […]

It’s getting earlier and earlier, every year, isn’t it? Whilst the first three weeks of Ramadan will be over the school period, the last week of Ramadan will be […]
Ramadan Kareem, to all those fasting over this holy month. With so many iftar spreads organised in and around Dubai – it’s hard to decide which one to go to, isn’t it? We had the opportunity to review the iftar at Gastro Kitchen in Doubletree by Hilton JBR. Here’s what we loved about the iftar […]

It has been a long time since we sat in Atmosphere Lounge in the Burj Khalifa at sunset for dinner and drinks. The folks are finally here, and we took them up one evening together with us to review their Ramadan menu. How is Atmosphere Lounge, at sunset?
Ramadan Kareem, all. Last week we returned to Huqqa in Dubai Mall with the family to review their iftar set menu. The girls were quite excited, not so much about the amazing Turkish food that they serve but about the Ipads they have in the restaurants. Priorities ay, kids these days.
Having spent a week in Sicily in April didn’t stop us from heading over to BiCE for iftar. You could never say no to good italian food. BiCE has been around ever since we moved over here back in 2012, and I’m sure it was around even before that. There’s a reason why restaurants “survive” […]
I’ve been on a blogging hiatus. Work’s been absolute manic, I feel like I’ve been completely swallowed up, but you know what – I actually really enjoy it, weird as that may seem. How are you, how has your Ramadan been? 🙂 I haven’t done one of these in my series of random rambles for […]
Mum loved it. Last Iftar before she flies home, and this was probably the highlight of the 4 iftars that she’s been to 🙂 It’s actually quite small (for Dubai), but it’s intimate, it’s beautiful, and just enough. Impressed how they managed to fit so many people in Nawwara yet not make you feel like […]
So I decided to take mum to The Beach…. since she’s never been there before after it has opened 🙂 It was a gruelling 38 degrees, as we parked our car in front of Al Fattan towers and wandered pass the Hilton onto The Beach. Started to sweat already and mum’s mood was going from […]
You know it’s good when you come home and the first thing you want to do is write about it before you forget 😉 Tonight, R and I went to Armani/Mediterraneo for the first official iftar. Ramadan Kareem, everyone. I was excited – because it would be the first time dining in Armani Hotel. Though […]
We’re constantly being reminded how amazing hospitality is, in Dubai. Tonight’s little outing has definitely raised our standards of what “service” is, and should be. Thanks to Lorenzo and the team, as well as the amazing chefs who prepared such a scrumptious Iftar buffet at Sloane’s on the mezzanine floor of Tower One, Grosvenor House […]
