Royal China, Dubai
I have a little secret that I’ve been dying to share with you guys. No, I’m not pregnant, but it’s a restaurant that I’ve kept hidden from you all for far too long and it would be selfish of me not to share. You see, BW introduced me to this place a while back, and ever […]
Slider Station, Dubai
Being a tourist in a country you’ve visited probably 1000 times means you’ve done all the touristy things, again and again. Sand dunes? Check. All 500 malls? Of course. Burj Al Arab? That’s so last century. Despite having done absolutely everything, what I can’t say I’ve done is the Burj Khalifa with a full on […]
Pantry Café, Dubai
In between the fancypants dinners and lunchtime burgers, I was dying for a something a little more normal, you know? Specifically along the lines of poached eggs, fluffy pancakes, syrupy french toast, that kind of thing. So when my lovely and dearest aunt asked to meet for breakfast, I jumped at the offer, and got […]
Nusr-Et, Dubai
Having finally managed to squeeze in one date night on our most recent trip to Dubai, I forcibly encouraged BW to choose somewhere nice. I wanted to be (halal) wined and dined; not just taken somewhere last minute to put an end to my nagging! I was pleasantly surprised to find that he had booked […]
Five Guys, Dubai
This year, London was a little funny, weather wise. The snow decided to be a no-show, the summer was scorching hot (only during Ramadhan though – lucky us), and I swear autumn only lasted a day. Suddenly, winter appeared along with it’s bitter cold temperature and this crazy wind that is blowing everyone away! Lucky […]
Cheesecake Factory, Dubai
Feeling a little sad that I wouldn’t be celebrating my birthday with the family this year (the first time in 23 years!), my parents made a grand masterplan to surprise me whilst I was in Dubai. Together with BW and my whole immediate family, they made a careful plan to come to Dubai over New […]
Salt, Dubai
So you all wanted to know what the best burger in Dubai is right? The place that trumps Fatburger (one of my favourites) and even the widely beloved Shakeshack? Well here it is and I hope you enjoy 🙂
Dubai’s Burger Wars
Over the Christmas holidays, BW and I packed our bags and headed off to Dubai. I know, I know, I’ve been frequenting there quite a bit recently and you’ll probably sigh at the next few Dubai posts BUT I’ve never been more fooded out (my own term for absolute gluttony) than on this trip, and […]
Cut, Dubai
Last weekend, BW and I popped over to Dubai for a couple of days to attend an exclusive two day event hosted by Sole DXB, but more about that in a later post. Although a short trip, it was a much needed break, especially with work becoming a little overwhelming, so when we left the […]
Shakeshack, Dubai
As much as I enjoyed writing about my honeymoon, I know why you’re all reallllly here. You saw that I mentioned Shakeshack in a previous post and were eagerly waiting for this! Well, I don’t like to disappoint, so here we go.
