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: 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.

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.

Perhaps partly owing to it being the weekend, it was packed, and we…
The Dubai Diaries: Red Lobster @ The Dubai Mall
Located at: Financial Center Road, Downtown Dubai, United Arab Emirates Visited on: 16 Nov, 2018 I remember having to queue to get a table for three at this very restaurant a couple of years ago. Alas, times have changed, economies have changed – Dubai has changed – and we were able to get a table for…
The Dubai Diaries: Shakespeare and Co. @ The Dubai Mall
Located at: Financial Center Road, Downtown Dubai, United Arab Emirates Visited on: 01 May, 2018 I have passed this place by several times in the past, and always thought of it as an ‘English Afternoon Tea’ sort of spot. Such is the cute, old-English style décor. However, a stop at the place on this particular…
The Dubai Diaries: Wafi Gourmet @ The Dubai Mall
Located at: Financial Centre Road, Downtown Dubai, United Arab Emirates Visited on: 24 Oct, 2017 My first encounter with Wafi Gourmet happened several years back while they had a branch at Dubai Festival City (DFC). And I immediately fell for their pita bread and hommos (quite often spelled hummus). Authentic Lebanese food is what they promised…
