A Leisure Guide for Families in Dubai
6 girls. 24 drinks. A fat juicy steak each. Bill came to be about 170AED per person, which includes a random selection of delicious sides to share. Hmm, not too bad ay, for a school night 🙂 So I’ve seen this Ruth’s Chris Steak House on my facebook wall for ages now. It’s not too far […]

Last week, I was invited to try out one of the treatments in Saray Spa. Funnily enough this is one of the few spas that I have actually been to a few times before. So, you can say that my write-up is definitely a fair one, as I’ve always had high regards of its staff […]

Been looking forward to write on this lil find in the marina 🙂 Last Saturday when K was here, we went out for a cycle around the marina and ended up at Pier 7. I had originally planned to take her to Ocacti for ladies night, supposedly sunset cocktails from 6-9pm. We wandered through the […]

How would you like to, spend 3 hours in a classy lounge in a 5-star hotel, have some scones and gourmet sandwiches, catch up with friends, whilst a lady plays live piano in the background, sip on amazingly fragrant tea (that you can get choose from a frikin’ tea box!)? When you’re done with the […]
Read MoreI bought one of those groupon deals the other day – this was 159 AED for Hair Cut, Blow Dry, Schwarzkopf Treatment & Full Head Colour ( add-on 70AED for long hair ). Spent 3 hours yesterday afternoon under the care of Alan himself – walked out a happy girl 🙂 It’s a fairly new […]

So here I am sitting cross-legged on my red carpet, all excited to blog about my random weekend rendezvous at the Le Royal Meridien 🙂 Not to be mistaken as the other SPG resort with a similar name on the same stretch about 5 minutes drive away. I’ve always wondered why the other one (where Barasti […]
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, […]

Back in June when M was here, I took her to experience brunch at The Talk in Moevenpick Jumeirah Beach Hotel. Now G and I have been to Moevenpick a few times, big fan of Chinwaggery, the bar outside, but we had never dined in the adjacent restaurant. Expectations weren’t high, as from our previous walk-throughs it […]
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 […]

I’m sleepy. DSS has kicked off and we’ve just been wandering through Dubai Mall. I didn’t buy a single thing. I’m so sad 🙁 Maybe some blogging will cheer me up he he. M’s here – thought it’ll be nice to show her some of Dubai’s nightlife. And what’s a better place than Embassy, just […]

06.06.13 He he I’m starting a post that I’ll keep updating, since I’ve completely fallen in love with the South-east Asian food in The Noodle Room. This will be a collection of my ongoing reviews of its dishes. Click here for its menu. *Gasp* – yes it is what it looks like – Char Kway […]
Read MoreSitting cross-legged on our black dining room chairs, warm summer breeze wafting in, Sheikh Zayed Road’s traffic overwhelmed by the constant drilling from the adjacent site. I wonder what they’re going to do there? Please built a park! It’s nice to be home again. Here’re some snapshots from my little work trip to Makati : […]

Harry Potter theme song playing in the background…. We never get sick of this ay Beautiful isn’t it? Taken, Sunday morning 12th of May 2013 around 7 am.

So disappointed 🙁 I’ve read and heard good reviews about this place. We cycle pass it a lot of time now and it’s always pretty packed with asians, so we figured – it must be good?
Read MoreDon’t drink too much of that pink stuff. It gives you the worst hangover ever the next day. We brought some guests from Singapore there on Thursday night to “check out Dubai nightlife”. It was busy as hell, music was so loud and crowded with expats. Quite different to the last time that we were […]

Updated post, 13th March 2015 Been two years since I’ve been back to Dek on 8 for their ladies night. Wasn’t the best experience back then to be honest (read review below), but I’m glad I gave it a second chance 😉 So last Wednesday, after one drink (Ps – not the best white wine, […]

Best to blog when it’s still fresh, otherwise I tend to get lazy and then kinda forget about it 😉 First off, Happy New Year everyone! Been absent for weeks now as we’ve gone back home for the holidays and well, just been lazy really. My dad keep telling me during brunch today – you […]

Us girls have been here probably more than 10x now, since I’ve moved here. That’s gotta say something for itself 🙂 Over summer we’ve always contemplated trying a different Ladies Night. Timeout Magazine lists a few. But the thing is – it’s always so much easier/better just to go to Embassy because It’s a 10DHS […]

Didn’t do the food justice with my lousy camera skills. Sorry! 😉 A girl friend was in town and I hadn’t planned anything. Opened up the HSBC Ent Book and thought I’ll choose something that’s nearby and nice. Saw the Hunters Room & Grill and thought – why not? I hadn’t been to the Westin […]
Read MoreAnother nice little mid-week outing 🙂 We had planned to check out Z-One before heading over to The Med, as it was Ladies Night on Tuesdays. Girls get 4 tokens, 2 for house white/red, and another 2 for selected cocktails. You drop your name in and if lucky (aren’t we all), you’ll get a Lush […]
