Since it offers food, it’s also recommendable for nibbles: Restaurant SoBe @ W Dubai – The Palm (6. March 2021)
Since SoBe turned into a restaurant due to the pandemic, it is actually recommendable to eat here – at least small nibbles. The “calamari (crispy calamari, chipotle dip)” (AED 65) are good as there is enough batter but still some actual calamari beneath it so it is a good and tasty bite. The chipotle dip […]
A nice elitist beach club: Cove Beach @ Caeasar’s Palace (6. March 2021)
The “Cove Beach” is a nice but kind of elitist beach club. Admission is only possible if you fit their profile – and it’s 200 AED per person to enter (although 100 AED is for consumption). However, the place is nice and the service is relatively attentive when you’re on your sunbeds. After ordering lunch, […]
A perfect place to spend the evening: SoBe @ W Dubai – The Palm (18. February 2021)
Somehow, the SoBe remains a place to come back to on a regular basis – the view in the evening is lovely. On either side, either looking over the pool and then the sea, or the other side where you ‘just’ get to see the sea. The play of colors which is very intense at […]
Jungle-like atmosphere but slow service: Amazonico Bar (17. February 2021)
I have heard about the Amazonico Bar quite a bit from different people and somehow it was about time to pay that place a visit. The bar is located on the rooftop of the building and is quite nice in terms of interior design (or rather, exterior design). The “Welcome to the Jungle (cachaça, lime, […]
A truly interesting Asian Fusion kitchen concept worth visiting: Restaurant Shanghai Me (17. February 2021)
Shanghai Me provides you with a special experience – ranging from a nice interior to good service to tasty dishes. Starting with the “Szechuan Edamame” (30 AED) which are incredibly enjoyable but messy to eat. The “seared tuna with coriander & green chili” (80 AED) is perfect in terms of consistency but also in terms […]
Close to perfect service with a delicious main course: Restaurant Torno Subito @ W Dubai – The Palm (16. February 2021)
After more than a month, I decided to give the Torno Subito another try. This time, because I was invited by the Sales Manager of the W The Palm Dubai. And it was a lovely evening with great food – their standard amuse bouche, i.e., a mixture of yesterday’s breadcrumbs, Parmesan foam, and tomato flavor […]
Commemorating the Taiwanese Din Tai Fung experience: Restaurant Din Tai Fung @ Mall of the Emirates (14. February 2021)
Din Tai Fung definitely rang a bell when I heard about it. And then I remembered! I have been to Din Tai Fung in Taipeh in 2017 – and it was a dumpling experience to remember! So, I was rather excited to try it again. We started with “spicy cucumber” (23 AED) which was rather […]
