If you have been in Dubai for more than 5 years, chances are you have done the Fork and Cork brunch at some point or another. It’s Anantara the Palm’s big brunch. The last time we did this – we didn’t have any mini versions of ourselves at the table to attend to. It was […]

Re-introducing a much loved resort of ours : Le Royal Meridien Resort & Spa. Every Sunday, their British Seafood restaurant Geales does a family day lunch. We have done this a few times now, though it was still exciting for us to return, with all 3 in tow. Here’s what to expect in the Geales […]

A dear friend of ours was back in town and I started hunting left right centre for a fun spot for a get together. We did the ladies night at the new Claw BBQ in the Palm many weeks ago, and have been hoping that they will launch a brunch. They didn’t, but hooray – […]

Have you ever brunched in Ras al Khaimah? We drove up to the Intercontinental Ras al Khaimah one weekend mid November, for a daycation – as well as to review Noho’s New York Brunch. Somewhere new, somewhere different. That’s, always exciting – isn’t it? 🙂 Here’s what to expect at the Noho’s New York Brunch.

Though we have been to the Four Seasons, it would be our first time walking into their gardens, and to dine in Sea Fu. As you would expect from the Four Seasons – their gardens are carefully manicured and every corner appears to have been designed for that picture-perfect snapshot. Add in those fluffy clouds […]

The Beach Grill is Address Beach Resort’s pool and beachside restaurant. It’s what Palm Avenue is to Waldorf, Seagrill is to Fairmont, Plaj is to Zabeel Saray. It’s basically where you’ll take your kids to dine after an afternoon by the family pool – and guess what? As an in-house guest, kids under 7 dine […]

Thought I’ll pop back to Seagrill and check out their more casual offerings, after the elaborate feast we had many weeks ago. The elder one was back in Falcon’s, and younger one completely passed out in our awesome Dragonmart yoyo. I headed towards Fairmont’s seafood restaurant again – this time supposedly incognito and on my […]

Back to Fairmont the Palm this weekend with the family – this time for a lunch review at their seafood restaurant – Seagrill Bistro. I had always had the impression that the restaurant was an adults-only venue, but was then informed that kids were welcomed. Did you know that kids 5 and below eat for […]

Last Thursday we got the little ones dressed up, and ourselves too – for an evening brunch at Feast, located about 15 minutes up Sheikh Zayed Road from the marina. Happy to have accepted the invitation to review the brunch as it ticked a lot of boxes – there was going to be a lot […]

It was a really hot day yesterday. I don’t think the husband was very pleased with my fabulous family plan to head towards Ras al Khaimah (again) in the sweltering 40 degrees summer heat and 80 percent humidity. The Ritz Carlton Al Hamra was the destination I told him – “A stunning beach resort, ‘complimentary’ […]

If Lovin’ Dubai were to do a post on this, they would probably title it, “This has got to be the best business lunch deal in JBR”…… or “If you work or live in JBR, you have to come here for lunch.” Unfortunately as great a title that would be to get everyone to click on […]

Came back to Bu Qtair again last night with our friends, and man, was it good. Bu Qtair has been mentioned by a lot of other bloggers as one of the recommended cheap eats in Dubai and we were actually introduced to it through a good friend. It’s an experience that you don’t really get […]

It’s 12:16am. I didn’t follow the troupe to Q43 because I wanted to go to bed. But as I got into the apartment, I felt like I wanted to do very quick write-up, just cause I felt like it 😉 That’s why I love writing. You might say that it’s probably not the best to write after […]

Picture this. It’s Thursday, it’s been hell of a week at work and you just want to go home and crash. You can’t be bothered going out because traffic is a nightmare on SZR. You do, however, want a nice glass of wine. Comfy lounge. Good food that doesn’t cost a bomb. Here’s an option.

We checked out of Punta on the third day, and got dropped off at Tropical Suites ( Thanks Alessandro!) located in the centre of Bocas Town. Glad we chose it ay, cheers to Tripadvisor’s recommendation – it was really good for Bocas standards. Clean, spacious, and they gifted us a bottle of champagne as well, aww. […]

I feel that since I’m using G’s camera photos, I can’t be bothered writing too much because the photos speak for themselves 🙂 Last Friday we drove down to St Regis for another weekend rendezvous. I actually preferred it this time round because it wasn’t as cold as when we spent the weekend there in […]
Read MoreAgain, just alright. I’m getting bored now when I blog about things that were just alright. I think I’ll go to bed after this -.- Reasonable prices. The bread they served before your meals – that was the best. Clam chowder was good. Chicken caesar salad – the greens were a bit old (see photo). […]

Isn’t that beautiful? 🙂 You get that a lot in Dubai. White sand, light blue sea, clear skies. And for maybe 5 months in the year if you’re lucky you get awesome weather.
Read MoreI wanna go shopping soon cause it’s EID sales hee hee so again I’ll make it short. I was just writing to the girls about how nice it is to explore different restaurants in Dubai. West 14th is yet again another one of these that we really like and will return to. You know one […]

Our 2nd try on the many restaurants participating in Jumeirah Restaurant Week 🙂 Pierchic. “The stroll out to sea along the bedecked pier immediately sets the scene for romance. Pierchic serves only the finest seafood dishes, washed down with a balmy breeze and the serene views of the Gulf’s azure waters. Stylish, serene and simply […]
