Located at: 8th Street, Dubai, United Arab Emirates Visited on: 15 March, 2020 The thing with PAUL is that they offer something new to try every few months. So, while I have previously enjoyed and reviewed a few of their specialties (https://theeatlog.com/2018/05/07/paul-deira-city-center/ and https://theeatlog.com/2019/10/19/eclairs-at-paul/), this review looks at a few items on their newest menu. Also…

The Dubai Diaries: Éclairs at PAUL @ The Dubai Mall
We’ve had plenty of their savoury dishes and cakes and pastries before, but this is the first time I tried Paul’s éclairs. And I thought they were lovely! Of course, mine was the chocolate one. The filling was creamy (but not buttery) and just right in sweetness, the pastry was firm but soft, and the…
The Dubai Diaries: Atisuto @ Al Ghurair Centre
Located at: Ground Floor, Al Ghurair Centre, Al Rigga Road, Dubai, United Arab Emirates Visited on: 14 & 16 Oct, 2019 Atisuto is a cosy and casual Japanese restaurant that we enjoy visiting from time to time. The unique décor gives the place a rather welcoming yet street-vibe feel. This review is a combination of two…
The Dubai Diaries: Rubicons Coffee’s Dulce de Leche Cheesecake @ The Dubai Mall
Located at: Financial Center Road, Downtown Dubai, United Arab Emirates Visited on: 12 Oct, 2019 This Dulce de Leche Cheesecake came highly recommended, and apparently is Rubicons’ best-seller. A bite into it and you realise why. It is an absolutely beautiful, smooth cheesecake sitting on a softly crunchy biscuit base, seamlessly topped with a layer of…
The Dubai Diaries: Amorino Gelato @ The Dubai Mall
Located at: Financial Center Road, Downtown Dubai, United Arab Emirates Visited on: 12 Oct, 2019 This little gelato ‘truck’ stationed near Galaries Lafayette on the ground floor serves these fancy little rose-shaped gelato on cones. You can get the petals done in one or several flavours, and this particular one was completely pistachio. And no matter…
The Dubai Diaries: Friday Brunch @ Radisson Blu Deira
Located at: Baniyas Road, Deira, Dubai, United Arab Emirates Visited on: 11 Oct, 2019 Radisson Blu has restructured their Friday Brunch spread a bit since our last visit, and it has quite a neat disposition. As before, most of the savoury items are arranged by cuisine type – Japanese, Middle Eastern, Indian, Thai / Far Eastern,…
Pastries by Sapphyr Lounge @ Shangri-La Colombo
Located at: 2, 1 Colombo, Colombo 02, Sri Lanka Visited on: 07 Sep, 2019 Have y’all seen the sweet stuff at Sapphyr Lounge? Those pastries look spectacular! Tucked away at the far end of the lobby, their pastry display is definitely worth taking a look at. And once you do, you’re bound to fall for something…
The Euro Diaries: Nata in Porto
You cannot leave Portugal without having a nata. Or two. Or more. BUT you must have them from some place that prepares them with care. A nata is essentially a hard pastry shell filled with an egg-custard concoction – a custard tart. Some like to sprinkle a bit of cinnamon powder on it – I’m…
The Euro Diaries: Apple Pie in Bratislava
Now, we were told that this is “untradionally traditional” (or was it “traditionally untraditional”?) – what I translated into ‘their take on the good old apple pie’. Apple pie must have been a traditionally popular dessert over the years, understandably. But frankly, I don’t care how traditional or not this was. It was absolutely delicious….
