Great local experience with lovely view on the balcony: Restaurant Bait Al Luban (5. January 2018)
The Bait Al Luban is apparently among the best restaurants in Muscat and I must say that it is definitely an interesting local experience. It is not entirely easy to find as the entrance is a bit in the back and you have to get to the second floor, but once you’ve found it, you […]
Amazingly relaxing for an afternoon and evening shisha: Courtyard Lounge @ Sheraton Oman (5. January 2018)
The Courtyard offers more than just breakfast – you can also enjoy a shisha in the garden restaurant which is amazing. The place is just truly beautiful and the “double apple shisha” (5.110 OMR) in combination with a “Peppermint Tea” (2.726 OMR) really makes for a great combination. As I had a shisha in the […]
Theoretically a lavish selection but practically half-empty: Restaurant Courtyard @ Sheraton Oman (5. January 2018)
Upon entering the Restaurant Courtyard, I was a bit skeptical at first as it didn’t look like there was much food left but once I’ve walked through the buffet I figured the selection is actually quite nice. It ranges from a variety of fresh fruit to … … cheeses … … spreads … … cold […]
New dishes aren’t always better: Restaurant Paul’s (4. January 2018)
If you are looking for some kind of healthy option in the Bahrain City Centre Mall, then Paul’s is kind of an option. The place is nice in terms of interior and you’re served “bread & spread” including butter once you’ve placed your order. I had the “salad fraicheur et avocat (mixed green salad with […]
If you want to feel bloated the next day, go to: Restaurant P.F. Chang’s (2. January 2018)
While I like their food a lot while I eat it, I regret it every time afterwards as it is so heavy you will sleep incredibly uncomfortable, respectively it’s too fatty for one to rest. However, the “Crispy Green Beans (tempura battered green beans with a spicy sweet dipping sauce, more addictive than French fries)” […]
Not much has changed into 2018: Restaurant Persian Garden (2. January 2018)
Once a month, it’s “Persian time” and it was time in the very beginning of the year. I went, as always, for the “hummous” which was fine as always. I think, they slightly pimped their “salad” as it now also comes with cabbage, so you have a decent selection of all kinds of different vegetables […]
Fine for breakfast, better for dinner: Furn Bistro & Bakery @ The Westin Bahrain City Centre (2. January 2018)
So far, the Furn was just a dinner place for me but turns out they also offer breakfast. And while the Westin is definitely better than the Le Méridien in terms of their hotel rooms, this is not so true for the breakfast. The breakfast at the Furn is rather limited in terms of selection. […]
A lovely place to relax in the afternoon: Epona Lounge @ Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club (1. January 2018)
It is always good when you’re shown around by a local – as else I’m pretty sure I would have never ended up at the Dubai Polo Equestrian Club. The Epona Lounge is nice but has – due to the horses – a bit too many flies for my gusto. However, the “Coco Rosemary (coconut […]
