Kinoya is a fantastic ramen spot that was recently a receipient of the MIchelin Bib Gourmand award (an award for restaurants that have been impressing customers over the past year) and I just had to check out what they had to offer. Here’s what me and my family had on our visit at Kinoya!

Quite frankly, I can’t think of many urban food legends quite like the LSE Fried Rice. I had heard about it from friends raving about it - usually more of a way to sober up after a night out on the town - and I was absolutely intrigued.

I really love writing about brunch offerings because there’s so much to talk about! This post will go into the brunch offering (or “Buranchi”) of Reif Kushiyaki! This is a multi-award-winning restaurant by Chef Reif Othman (a Singaporean). This restaurant is a recipient of the Michelin Bib Gourmand in Dubai for 2022, so I’m super excited to share their brunch offering with you guys!

Just a quick review of a breakfast me and my girlfriend had in Brighton. This time it is Tart by Sugardough and Shelter Hall, Brighton (right by the beach). This is actually an excellent spot to have breakfast, lunch, or dinner because it is basically an ‘atas’ kind of food court with lots of different options here.

Seaside town means seafood is definitely a must - especially if it is caught fresh! So this is one of those options for you to consider when at Brighton! (don’t do what I did and order the mixed grill haha!)

On SO MANY of the food guides of Brighton, I see this popular spot: Bankers Fish & Chips Brighton. Of course, this had to be a spot that I tried on my short trip over in Brighton.

A few snippets from my Brighton trip are coming up next on my blog, and the first one is CK Bistro! This is a comfy and homely spot my girlfriend found in Brighton and one that I thoroughly enjoyed on our short trip to the seaside town. Here’s what I thought of CK Bistro!

Not usually someone who blogs too much about lifestyle pieces, but I thought that this is something that I should definitely share with you guys! Here’s a blog piece about Drift Beach Club and their Chic Wednesday offering.

I love blogging about Malaysian food because that’s what I’m most familiar with (being a Malaysian of course), so I’m really excited to bring you guys one of the newer Malaysian food offerings in Dubai - Peach Blossom Teahouse Restaurant!

I would say that a lot of the Japanese restaurants in Dubai are a bit more on the fusion side - namely Roka, Zuma, 3 Fils, & Goldfish (many more examples, but these are what pop into my head). I would say that 99 Sushi Bar & Restaurant is probably up there in terms of being one of the more authentic Japanese cuisine spots in Dubai. Here’s what I thought of it!

Heya guys! No food blog this week, but I want to update you guys with some exciting news! I’m starting a new blog and I’m excited to share this journey with you guys!

I’ve been trying a lot of business lunches around Dubai, and you really don’t want to miss this one. I honestly think that this is perhaps the most bang for your buck (most value-for-money) business lunch that I’ve tried so far, so definitely check it out!

Today, I’m sharing with you guys the business lunch offering from Ce La Vi, The Address Skyview! This is actually the winner of the Favourite Business Lunch on the What’s On Awards Dubai and the place where I brought my girlfriend for her recent birthday here in Dubai, so definitely check this business lunch out!

Really excited to be sharing Akira Back with you guys this week! The price may be a bit on the steeper side, but the food at Akira Back really is oh, so delicious. There are seriously a lot of photos, so even if you’re not eating here, just stay for the pictures of the food (if you’re not too hungry right now!)

Really excited to share with you guys the Time Out “Best Thai” restaurant 2022, Cafe Isan at JLT! The food is super delicious and authentic - and a fairly reasonable price point (for a “best Thai” restaurant in a hotel)

As you will see across a lot of my blog posts, I generally write about restaurants that I have positive reviews for. However, at times, like in this case, I NEED to share certain negative stories about restaurants - just so people know about these issues, and restaurants can either respond appropriately for next time or continue being disappointing.

Kojaki is a brand new Korean-Japanese concept popping up in the Expo by highly distinguished chef Chef Kim Jin Chul (Jimmy). This is one of many pilot restaurants looking to open a branch in Dubai after the Expo concludes at the end of March.

3 Fils is the super trendy spot in town right now, having won the top spot on MENA’s 50 Best Restaurants list for 2022. And it is absolutely deserved. The restaurant serves up super yummy food at a fairly reasonable price point that everyone can enjoy.

Up on the blog this week is one of the newer additions to the Dubai food scene - Sushi Samba @ St Regis! This is a Japanese-Peruvian fusion restaurant that has already welcomed the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Sheikh Hamdan.

This week on the blog, I wanna share some of the most authentic Japanese cuisine experiences I’ve had since I’ve had in Dubai, and it is none other than Tomo! This is a comfy Japanese restaurant near Wafi Mall (Raffles Hotel is connected to Wafi Mall).
