Ladies Night @ Karma Kafe Dubai : with Dubai Fountain Views !

If you are looking for a nice chilled spot to take a guest around Downtown Dubai for a drink, consider doing the ladies night offer at Karma Kafe. I remember doing their brunch almost 8 years ago – and it was such good food and so much fun. Returned early November to take a guest […]

A Turkish Iftar @ Huqqa, Dubai Mall

Ramadan Kareem, all. Last week we returned to Huqqa in Dubai Mall with the family to review their iftar set menu. The girls were quite excited, not so much about the amazing Turkish food that they serve but about the Ipads they have in the restaurants. Priorities ay, kids these days.

A Lavish Turkish Breakfast @ Huqqa, Dubai Mall

Back to Huqqa in Dubai Mall with the family last weekend to review what they had to offer for breakfast. We normally don’t do breakfast with the entire troupe as it’s just too much effort and time to get everyone ready on a Friday morning. But hey – if it’s at somewhere nice, with views […]

A family favourite – Walnut Grove @ Dubai Mall

There are some places you go to once and you tick it off your list, and then there’s Walnut Grove. Early last year, we checked out the Dubai Mall branch as part of a review. Shortly after, they were introduced into the Entertainer and we returned again and again on our own expense for lunches, […]

Turkish Dinner by the Fountains @ Huqqa Dubai

I’m no expert when it comes to Turkish cuisine. Unfortunately spending a couple of days in Istanbul on holiday doesn’t make you a pro.  So here’s a review from someone who simply appreciates good food, a good spot and an overall good ambience 🙂

Family Lunch @ Walnut Grove, Dubai Mall

Lunch with the family is often a stressful affair. Two-year-olds and ‘pretty-looking places’ don’t go hand in hand at all. So when we received the invitation to review the newly opened Walnut Grove at Dubai Mall, I was pretty hesitant. It was either going to be Disastrous Level 3, or Disastrious Level 2. We had […]

Turkish Meatery by the fountains @ Gunaydin, Souk Al Bahar Dubai

I was quite sad when I saw Urbano closed its doors. We used to take guests there for some good Italian, with a view of the fountains. After sometime, the construction boards came down and taking over was a new Turkish meatery – “Gunaydin” it was called. We had missed the media event, so requested […]

An underrated Chinese Joint – Leten @ Dubai Mall

I’ve been meaning to write about Leten since our first visit back in January with mum. It’s one of those places that you add to the ‘to-blog’ list but then get busy. It’s reasonably priced and good so you go back again for the second, third, fourth, fifth time. I think if I put the […]

Urbano @ Souk Al Bahar

Love Entertainer Vouchers. So I went to Dubai Mall to meet up with mum after work today. Decided on dinner at Urbano as it was the first restaurant that popped up when I was scanning through the Ent Dubai book. We got there before 7 so it was pretty empty at the terrace at first. […]

Dinner at Karma Kafe @ Souk Al Bahar

Been lazy to blog lately, work’s getting busy which is great really. Dubai’s picking up very very quickly 🙂 *Excited* Short one. Last week, we took our guests to Karma Kafe, located on the first floor of Souk Al Bahar. If you sit at the terrace, you’re overlooking the fountains and the Burj – nice. […]

Dinner @ Carluccio’s, The Dubai Mall

I’m actually still sitting here in Carluccio’s as I wait for the other 3 to arrive. I didn’t plan to write on Carluccio’s as I’ve been to the one in the Marina Mall with G for a random weekend lunch and it wasn’t that super. This one on the other hand is actually, quite nice […]
