a leisure guide for families in dubai
Ever since Jumeirah Al Naseem opened its doors to the public in December, I’ve always wanted to go check it out ….. and as I do, I waited to see if there would be any deals. They never joined the Entertainer (will they?), and I couldn’t wait anymore (wanted to take mum there) – so […]

Last November, I had organised afternoon tea at Al Samar Lounge with the girls (yes, because it was in the Entertainer, and yes, because it’s always gorgeous in the Madinat). The review never made it live on the blog. Though we had a fabulous time sitting in the terrace overlooking the Burj Al Arab, I was […]

First “holiday” away from our apartment last weekend. Social media has been driving me a little nuts lately with photos of everyone on their summer holiday (insert sulk face) . So after a lot of research on the newly launched Isme Elite app, we decided that it was pretty worth it, went ahead – bought it, […]

Quite a few weeks ago, we were looking around for somewhere to go for a, what people would call a ‘babymoon’. Now most people (in Dubai) would go to somewhere exotic like Thailand, Maldives, maybe Sri Lanka – but I was past my ‘okay-to-fly’ safe date so we opted for somewhere local. A few clicks […]

I’ll start off by saying that I am no expert when it comes to Mexican food. This was just one of those unplanned Thursday nights where we flipped out the Entertainer and wanted to go to somewhere in the Souk Madinat Jumeirah area, having just spent a lovely babymoon at Dar Al Masyaf the weekend […]

This I’ll say. It’s pretty, it’s very pretty. We had a great time. However, food was just – alright. Here’s a detailed take on what we got for 200AED (for two, with the Entertainer 😉 )
Read MoreIt’s nice to sit outside on the terrace now in the cool winter months, and it is in Souk Madinat Jumeirah so it’s a really beautiful spot overlooking the waterway, but to be honest….. it’s not at the top of my list as a ladies night spot. The girls who got there early told me the […]

1 hour before we have to get ready for our Nien Chu Yi dinner at Shanghai Chic, so I’ll keep this short and sweet 🙂 Last night we went to Zheng He at Mina A’ Salam for tuan yuan fan. Beautiful setting next to the waterway, overlooking the Burj. I was so hopeful that there […]
Read MoreLazy blog post. I’m supposed to be in the pool, he he. Been to Al Hambra twice now and totally recommend it. 4 people, use 2 of your Entertainer 2 for 1s, and you get 8 tapas for the price of 4 ( 135AED ) 2 Paella/Mains for the price of 1 (125 AED) Crazy […]

Isn’t it nice when you find another new bar in town that you like? 🙂 Well last night we thought we’ll venture out a bit further (than the Marina, lol), since we had a guest. Rang up Jumeirah groups to double check and yes, Bahri Bar does ladies nights on Tuesdays between 8-11pm. When you […]

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 […]
