A Leisure Guide for Families in Dubai
Having been to the Marriott Harbour numerous times over the years, particularly when we used to live next door – the Friday Brunch was one of many on our to-do list. Off we went one hot summer afternoon with the family to review the Sky High Brunch at the Observatory, situated on the 52nd floor. […]

Friday Brunch at Prime 68 is one classy affair. Black and white inside out, you know you’re walking into a chic brunch as you are escorted down the corridors through the steakhouse. Though we have been and stayed in the JW Marriott Marquis many times since its opening, this would be the first time dining […]

Introducing, Chef Mohammad Iqbal, who has been at the JW’s Steakhouse since it opened its doors 21 years ago. We were very honoured to have met the man himself last night – very humble, and polite as he showed us the restaurant, one of the oldest, and supposedly first steakhouses in Dubai. He then said us, […]

Okay to be fair I didn’t have any sauerkraut. We kinda stayed in Bamboo Lagoon most of the time for the asian cuisine, popping out for a bit of pork from the Hofbrauhaus spread, and waffles from The Market Place. Yes, JW Marriott Hotel’s Indoor ‘Friday Brunch for Everyone’, like a few others (Dusit Thani […]

We watched as this new cafe slowly appeared behind the Marriott : Counter Culture Cafe, hmm. It’s a 5 minutes walk from home, yet over the last two months since it has launched there was never any talk about it from friends, nor did it ever appear on my Entertainer App or any other deal […]

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 […]

Last Sunday, we went to Positano at JW Marriott Marquis for some fine italian buffet. It was literally 4-days of super pigging out with M being here, haha. Positano’s located on the 2nd floor of the hotel. Last time we were here was nearly a year ago now when we stayed for 2 nights when […]
Read MoreNot many places do lunches. I had a few stray Entertainer vouchers at home in the weekend and I started to call to book and most said they only opened for dinner. Stinky. Observatory, a short stroll from us was fortunately open for lunch! 🙂 With the 2 for 1, you can have a classy, […]
Read MoreCan’t believe we live so close but the first time that I went up there was just a few weeks ago! Was there again last night, and the night before. Hehehe. Absolutely packed. Thanks to the very sweet Vivian (a guy!) who attended to us and kept me happy with glasses of Malbec. Observatory provides […]

Had the opportunity to stay in the newly opened JW Marriott Marquis over the weekend. Before checking in on Thursday, the only few things that we’ve heard about this place were from the scattered FB newsfeed stories of its opening ceremony, hosted by Simone with special guest Leona Lewis, the sports bar Velocity (from Dubai92’s […]
