Restarting my blog this week has already made it look like I’m a bit celebrity obsessed. Two of three posts with a famous chef. This is about to make it look even more true, when acutally I’ve generally not got a clue who anyone is. I mean, you’re talking to the girl who walked straight…

#SaltBaeBurger update!
As you all know, I went for lunch in the newly opened Salt Bae Burger in DIFC this week, and loved it! In fact, I loved it so much that I quickly wrote up about it and posted the next morning. This promoted two things…
Pizza & Prosecco
What a winning combination, right! If you then add on top an all in one price, then you win BIG time! All you can eat pizza and all you can drink prosecco all for the princely sum of AED 149 for ladies, or AED 199 for the gents. Not only can you drink prosecco, there is…
KK’s Texan Grill House, South Croydon
I have mentioned before that one of the bonuses about being an expat is all the lovely people you meet that you normally wouldn’t have, but that it’s sad when those lovely people leave. It’s not as bad though when they end up just down the road from your family! Lesley is one of those…
Le Raj, Banstead, Surrey
The spot of “My Favourite Restaurant” is a really tricky one to fill. I like so many different types of food, and have been fortunate enough to eat in so many different countries, that I can never quite decide on an absolute winner. I mean, how do you choose between your favourite steak place vs…
Jacoby’s Tavern & Kitchen
Every time we went to visit Grandma in the later years, and certainly since I moved abroad, she would like to treat us to a nice lunch out. There was only one or two places that would pass muster, and Jacoby’s was one of them. With that in mind, there was really only one place…
Elia, Majestic Hotel, Dubai
Does anyone ever want to cook anything after spending the day at the beach? Unless it’s a BBQ of course. That can happen. But regular cooking always seems so hard. Knowing this, we planned accordingly and booked to go out for dinner. Quite fittingly for our ‘holiday’ inspired day, we found ourselves at Elia…
Pyongyang Okryu-Gwan – Or, the North Korean Restaurant in Dubai!
Yep, that’s right. There is a North Korean restaurant in Dubai and we decided to try it! As you may have worked out by now, Mummy and I do like a little bit of food sampling from time to time. Mostly we stick to things we know we like, but every now and again we…
Blaze Burgers… the Verdict
There are no good words to start this, so have a picture instead….. Blaze Burgers on JBR is where you will find the “6abooc-a Burger”, aka the Brick Burger. The Boy and I have been borderline fantasising about this place since the restaurant launched itself in a blaze (!)
Brunch at Coya
Hello everyone! I’m back… sort of. I never meant to be away. It just kind of happened. I ran out of words again. But thanks to my friend’s birthday brunch at Coya this weekend, I have plenty! Coya is the Four Season’s Peruvian offering, and I’ve heard some really good things about it. I’ve also…
