Well – this is Yunza-11 Brunch at Above Eleven. Read […]

We packed our bags for a little staycation – a short drive from home one weekend in June. The Marriott Resort Palm Jumeirah is literally a ten minutes drive from home, which probably doesn’t make any sense to most but the experience as a whole, is completely different to what we can get – in […]

I remember our first visit to Senor Pico back when they opened up – early 2021. There were no sunbeds on the sand – and Marriott Resort had not yet been built. Senor Pico has gone a long way since – becoming many families’ favourite go-to spot at Palm West Beach. Have you been? Why […]

The beach area next to Jones the Grocer was under construction for a very long time. We were wondering – what’s going on? Say hello to Zing, Hilton Palm Jumeirah’s own Beach Bar, to add to a number of other restaurants in its property. We went over to the Hilton end of January to review […]

It was nice to return to Jones the Grocer with the family after having been there a couple of times beforehand. It was the first time trying out their menu properly over dinner and drinks whilst soaking in the golden rays of the sun just before it slid down over the horizon. Ah, I love […]

Introducing Ula, a new beachside restaurant situated at the very end of Palm West Beach where Dukes the Palm sits. It replaces West 14th – one of the first restaurants we visited many years ago when we were fresh to the Dubai dining scene. I had seen images of Ula online and was quite excited […]

If you’re getting bored of the usual English Breakfast dishes, how about give Mexican a try? Look I am no expert and will not start pretending to be one. Sadly, I have never been to Mexico so I’ll leave the ‘Was it authentic?’ review to those who know better. This, is a brief review of […]

About time they joined the breakfast club, don’t you think? Say hello to Koko Bay, which really doesn’t need an introduction. Yes, it’s that famous bali-inspired restaurant in Palm West Beach with amazing views of the marina, that hammock, that swing. I can imagine their start-up committee sitting around a table going – how do […]

Headed towards Palm West Beach to meet a girlfriend for a late lunch review – this was Senor Pico, a licensed Mexican joint situated right by the fountains and the giant West Beach sign (no hashtag as well, for a nice change 😉 ). We took a seat outdoors – and at 3:30pm in the […]

Dubai decided that the beachfront to the west of the Palm trunk was not wide enough. What did they do? They made it wider. More space means more footfall and of course – F&B outlets. I’m happy they decided not to over-populate this area and keep it a bit more bare and serene with just […]
