Definitely worth visiting for the experience and the atmosphere: Restaurant The London Project (18. March 2021)
Last time I’ve been to Bluewaters, I ended up catching Corona after. Therefore, I was somewhat not fond of returning to the area but as fate had it, I ended up there again. And I must say, The London Project is actually a very enjoyable location – it is atmospheric, nice in terms of interior […]
Definitely a hyped place – not worth the visit: Restaurant #SaltBae Burger DIFC (17. March 2021)
Since I’ve paid Nusr-et a visit, it was also time to pay it’s other joint a visit – called #SaltBae Burger. And in all fairness, it’s definitely a hyped place. I mean, the “beef tacos (slow roasted beef ribs, guacamole, tomato salsa, home-made spicy sauce, sour cream)” (AED 130) looked decent but, of course, didn’t […]
A mixture of Latin American flavors – but a tasty one: Restaurant Toro Toro @ Grosvenor House Dubai (15. March 2021)
I’m often skeptical when it comes to eating Latin American food somewhere else in the world as the flavors are so often so different from the originals. And I’m not saying that Toro Toro manages to match these one to one, but what is offered here, is actually surprisingly close to the real deal. The […]
Delicious meat where you wouldn’t necessarily expect it: Restaurant Chicago Meatpackers Dubai (14. March 2021)
Somehow I was craving meat that night and the Chicago Meatpackers was recommended by the very competent concierge at the W Dubai – The Palm, Angélica. I was, admittedly, skeptical since it was at The Pointe which seemed like a collection of restaurants which were more there for the fun of it than really being […]
A great bargain and surprisingly tasty food: Restaurant Zengo @ Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort & Spa (12. March 2021)
What is great about the Zengo is the view from the balcony terrace since it allows you to sit outside and enjoy the surroundings accordingly. And, therefore, it’s perfect to start everything off with a “Yuzu Gimlet” (60 AED) which was refreshing and disappeared quite quickly. Now, the “Zengo set menu” (250 AED) is where […]
The perfect place to create a memorable evening: Restaurant Weslodge Saloon (11. March 2021)
When you’re not only greeted by good food but also by amazing service, that makes a memorable evening. And I had such an evening at Weslodge Saloon on the 68th floor of the JW Marriott. If you are lucky, you get a table by the windows so you actually see outside – but even if […]
Bring patience, patience, and patience – and enjoy the delicious cuts: Restaurant Nusr-Et Steakhouse Dubai (10. March 2021)
Talking about fancy. Talking about exclusive. And adding pseudo to all of this. If you want to dine at Nusr-Et, make sure you bring one thing – patience! We booked a table for 8pm and were there on time – and had to wait 30 minutes outside. Now, the thing isn’t so much that as […]
Exquisite service and atmosphere – average food: Restaurant Marea Dubai (9. March 2021)
Marea has one Michelin star in New York and they expanded to Dubai. And well, they do not have a Michelin star here (for good reason). Now, to be fair, they do a great job here. Especially our waitress was incredibly professional, friendly, and attentive. So big kudos to her. The evening started with focaccia […]
