Dining with Kids @ Seagrill Bistro, Fairmont the Palm

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 […]

A group of expats are sitting outside on the verandah having drinks, overlooking the marina. It’s beautiful here. I feel like I’m on holiday, yet again. And it’s literally […]
