Fish shaped cones. That’s pretty much the simplest way to describe Bungeoppang. They’re taking Instagram by storm and are quite the latest fad. Why on Earth should ice-cream be served in a fish shaped cone? I’ll never know for the life of …
There’s no better way to settle (back) in to Dubai than to waltz down to a Friday brunch, and that’s what M and I did. As usual, I wanted to try something new, and treat my insatiable tastebuds to some really good …
For the last week, I’ve been down with a really annoying cold. I’m no stranger to colds, and would even go as far as calling myself an expert of colds. I can tell exactly when a cold is around the corner and …
If you’re following me on Instagram and Snapchat (and you probably are), your ears/eyes must be bleeding from my vacation banter. I just got back from a foodie vacation–or a foodcation (as my lameness insists on calling it)– from Malaysia, and if …
M and I live in the suburbs of Dubai, or as some would put it: In The Middle Of The Desert. Believe it or not, we love it. We love Dubai and everything it has to offer, but we also love that …
We spent Eid in Dubai this year. We had lunch with our closest friends, and spent the rest of the holiday catching up on pending chores and eating from the finest Dubai has to offer. M and I have a little Eid …

Say the words “Family Brunch” and “Kid Friendly” and you’ve lost me. Don’t hate, but seriously why on Earth would anyone without kids want to spend their hard-earned Friday in an endurance test: dining amongst a bunch of squealing pipsqueaks? Sorry doting …
I’ve previously been to Ewaan for Iftar, but during my recent staycation in The Palace Downtown, I got to enjoy what was possibly the best, most indulgent and most well-stocked hotel breakfast I’ve ever had the pleasure of sinking my teeth into. …
Some of you may already know how much I love the Palace Downtown, so much so -in fact- that I recently had to ask myself if all the memorable experiences I’ve had there have resulted in a positive bias. I decided to …
Last week, I decided to submerge myself into the ultimate Center Of Now experience, and spent a night in The Palace Downtown. While I was there, I had dinner at Asado, one of the best steakhouses in the UAE, and an Argentinean …
If you ask food bloggers or IGERS for a list of the most ‘gram-able cafes and restaurants in Dubai, I can guarantee you that Pots, Pans & Boards will make the list, if not top it. Pots, Pans and Board is the …
Bitter gourd is one of my absolute favorite vegetables to eat. If you cook them right, they taste incomparably delicious, and not in a masochistic way. My favorite way to eat them is when they’re cooked the Pakistani way, which ensures they …
Did I ever tell you how much I love brunch? Only about a hundred million times, I’m sure. Brunch allows me to have a late breakfast and keep grazing till it’s time for lunch and then keep eating till it’s time for …
One of the most customary things to eat for Pakistani Iftar in Ramadan is the ubiquitous Aloo Samosa. The bad boy is made from spiced, mashed potatoes, stuffed inside thinly rolled out dough that is cut into a semi- circle and folded around …
