ok, i hve to be honest. i am a foodie. i love baking, sweets, cakes, any desserts. i would rather have an expensive dessert, budget my main course and do away with appetizers. that is how i read menus.
i would rather eat, try restaurants than shop for clothes, make-up, shoes and bags. i guess that is why my hubby tells me i am a low maintenance wife.
i was inspired by food blogs of fellow Filipinos. however, i opted to do more than a food blog. food here in dubai is expensive, if you are for quality, michelin star chef- prepared food. I would say that competition of restaurants here is very stiff. As i hve mentioned before in "going to dubai" post, this city has so many people of diverse cultures. It is due to this type of market that hotels conceptualized restaurants that offers more than 5 cuisines in one sitting. So you can have your caprese salad, a selection of sushi and sashimi or french onion soup,then have pork char siu with yang chow fried rice, or a medium t-bone steak or a chicken biryani or lobster thermidore and finish it off with a plate of miniature desserts from creme brulee of different flavors, a small slice of baklava or that mini chocolate decadent cake or maybe yet try some fried green tea ice cream... and we are talking a la carte. Just imagine a menu consisting of more than 5 cuisines . Each type has its own app/soup, main course and dessert menu (whew), difficult choices to make....
Of course, you will never get away with friday brunches... friday here is sunday in Phils. Fri is rest day. Again, brunches go a looooong way....with overflowing bubbly, a buffet of different dishes of different cuisines, to kid's buffet, to bbq in the beach.. Brunch price starts at AED 250.00 to AED 400.00.
For the foodies out there, Dubai is a place to use that appetite for culinary adventure.
