Perfect for a shisha and loud DJ music: Andreea’s Beach Club (5. February 2023)

Since I had only been to the restaurant last time, I decided to give the Beach Club itself a try as well. I went, as always, for a “double apple shisha” (150.00 AED) and a “Corona” (50.00 AED) to spend some time by the pool. The place is quite nice, but the DJ blasts up […]

A lovely little patio with decent dishes: Restaurant Nola Eatery & Social House (5. February 2023)

The Nola Eatery was recommended to me by a friend the previous day, so, I decided to give it a shot! I went for the “hot spinach cheese dip (oven baked, served with sourdough crostini)” (46.00 AED) as a starter, which was quite lovely. The bread was not entirely easy to eat, since it was […]

An absolutely delicious, dry experience in The World’s 50 Best MENA number 1: Restaurant Orfali Bros Bistro (4. February 2023)

And it was finally time for number 1 on the list of The World’s 50 Best MENA! The Orfali Bros Bistro! I was surprised that they hadn’t called in advance to re-confirm the reservation, but they worked according to the bookings, and since the place is rather small, I would highly recommend you to book […]

Amazing atmosphere for a nice sunset drink: Jetty Lounge (4. February 2023)

Amazing atmosphere for a nice sunset drink: Jetty Lounge (4. February 2023)

The Jetty Lounge at the One&Only is quite a find. I mean, it’s not really a secret place, but it’s also not one you ‘just walk into’, since you need to pass the entry gates of the One&Only Royal Mirage, and they only let you in if you know the place behind. The atmosphere is […]

Decent shisha lounge with service going the extra mile: Salamar Shisha Lounge @ Habtoor Grand Resort, Autograph Collection (4. February 2023)

Decent shisha lounge with service going the extra mile: Salamar Shisha Lounge @ Habtoor Grand Resort, Autograph Collection (4. February 2023)

I was misled by the concierge since they told me the Salamar Shisha Lounge served shisha from 5pm on, but in fact they only started serving shisha at around 5.30pm. However, they made it possible nevertheless, and I got my “double apple shisha” (100.00 AED) already then and there. It was a bit cold outside, […]

Simple but enjoyable noodle experience – with not enough noodles: Restaurant The Noodle House – JBR (4. February 2023)

Simple but enjoyable noodle experience – with not enough noodles: Restaurant The Noodle House – JBR (4. February 2023)

I was looking for a quick and easy bite and found The Noodle House in JBR. And frankly, I was quite positively surprised! The “Asian kale salad (local curly kale, red cabbage, carrot, cashew nuts with a miso-ponzu dressing)” (46.00 AED) was rich in ingredients and quite refreshing in terms of flavour and taste profile. […]

Good, but not number 2 of The World’s 50 Best MENA: Restaurant Trèsind (3. February 2023)

Another day, another try of The World’s 50 Best MENA – this time, number 2! I was surprised how easy it was to get a table, but I was also ensured that it was a high-class dining experience since they had called in advance to reconfirm the booking. I went for the “Tasting Menu” (400 […]

A perfectly lovely place for a meal with a shisha by the pool: Andreea’s Beach Club (3. February 2023)

Since I was somehow not able to get up early enough, I missed breakfast and the lounge completely. Hence, it was time to find a spot, which offers food and shisha – and the Andreea’s Beach Club is pretty perfect for that. If you want, you can go to the place to enjoy your time […]
