After our lovely relaxing drinks watching the sun set over the desert, we were very much ready for the evening’s entertainment. I had booked us a table at a wonderful place called Al Hadeerah. It’s the crown jewel of this stunning resort! For a set price of AED 495 for an Arabic BBQ style food…

Introducing Albert
I’ve been a bit busy to post much over the last couple of weeks, and one of those reasons is that my very best friend in the whole wide world is visiting from South Africa! Meet Albert:
Afternoon Tea at the Burj Al Arab
Every now and again I feel the need to act my age. Thankfully its very rare, but when it does happen, instead of doing something boring I end up having a very lovely afternoon with one of my girlfriends at the Burj Al Arab! I should confess that it isn’t exactly how this wonderful day…
So-Good? So-Confused. So-Spa!
I decided that last weekend was going to be my treat weekend. I had some yummy food delivered so I didn’t have to cook. I had my hair done (which was also essential if you had seen my roots!). I booked a massage. As it was looking to be a bit of an expensive weekend, I…
Ting Irie – Update
As you know, I went to Ting Irie for Iftar in June, and was quite impressed. However.. Now I am even more impressed!!! I went back with a friend who also happens to be an ex-Bermuda expat. She had seen it was finally open and also needed to get her fix of jerk spices. Firstly,…
Ting was indeed, Irie!
In July 2015, I was ambling my way home from the mall when I noticed a massive sign going up, announcing that a restaurant called Ting Irie would be opening soon. Well, they may have been on island time, but they got there in the end and as soon as my stomach would allow, I headed in…
The Irish Village
I’ve lived in Dubai over 5 years now, and have only been to The Irish Village twice – once for a tree lighting ceremony with carols in an attempt to feel christmassy, and the other time was because they had a seriously huge drinks deal going on for their birthday. I have never eaten there…
Dubai Roast Dinner Diaries – Part 4
A few weeks ago, my lovely friend J invited me along to a girls lunch at Gaucho. I’m pretty much always up for any kind of lunch or dinner, but this is one that really excited me… Not only do I not see enough of J (I still have both her Christmas and birthday gifts…
Dubai Roast Dinner Diaries – Part 3
I honestly did not set out to make this a weekly thing!! We had a nice (home-made) breakfast wrap before starting our pottering around this week, and it did get us further into the day than normal! However, when hunger hit, it hit HARD! As we were in Dubai Mall, the logical place for dinner…
Dubai Roast Dinner Diaries – Part 2
Unintentionally, I found myself having another roast dinner this week. That’s not even a lie in this weeks’ instance! (I’m sure it will be at some point!!) We had been out pottering around all day, as we tend to at the weekends, looking for a specific shop on Beach Road. We literally went from the docks…
