Ramadan in Dubai | The Iftars And Suhoors Around Town
Ramadan is just around the corner. So are the summer holidays. While previously, you would expect the summer expat story to begin with many expats leaving Dubai for their respective homes during the summers, nowadays I find that a lot of families are actually staying back here (where else would you get air-conditioned car parks?) and are joined by their extended families. This post … Read More Ramadan in Dubai | The Iftars And Suhoors Around Town

How Did I Fare In Showcasing My Bengali Cuisine? | On Zee TV Middle East
The Bengali Gourmet evening at BookMunch was very important and special to me. This was the first time I had attempted to showcase Bengali Cuisine in a bit more elaborate way – a modern menu that had been created with all the nuances of traditional Bengali cuisine. It was for the ‘Cook The Books’ in BookMunch, an unique monthly event where the host Chef … Read More How Did I Fare In Showcasing My Bengali Cuisine? | On Zee TV Middle East

Eat Greek | Kadaifi Jumbo Prawns Or Flamed Grilled Whole Calamari?
It’s after a long long time that eating in a Dubai restaurant felt like a dream. Not because of the sun rays that reflected off the blue sea waters over the terrace or the dreamy, lit-up white nests hanging from the ceiling cast magical shadows on the distressed wooden floors. But simply because of a few stunning dishes that we ate at Eat Greek. … Read More Eat Greek | Kadaifi Jumbo Prawns Or Flamed Grilled Whole Calamari?
Book Munch | Join Me For A Bengali Gourmet Meal On The 4th June

Often I am inundated with mails from readers – Where can we have a Bengali Meal in Dubai? Is there any good Bengali Restaurant in Dubai? I don’t have any answers. I try to showcase Bengali cuisine … Read More Book Munch | Join Me For A Bengali Gourmet Meal On The 4th June

Mahec in Le Meridien | When Mango Is The Hero in A Love Story
I know that promotion for Mangoes are everywhere around the city at this hour. I am on a severe meal plan and Mangoes are no where mentioned in the plan. I read Madhu’s post Look Who’s Returned to My Mango Trees (she hasn’t written much about mangoes though) and felt hopelessly romantic with the thought – yes, I truly love Mangoes! Mahec, in Le Meridien … Read More Mahec in Le Meridien | When Mango Is The Hero in A Love Story

Daal Baati Churma | An Evening of Traditional Marwari Food

Yuan In Atlantis | Dim Sum-ing All The Way On A Friday
I just came back from a Friday Yum Cha brunch at Yuan in Atlantis and I am still thinking about it. This would be one of those fine dining Dubai brunches (mostly dim sums and what a mind boggling variety of them) that comes at a casual dining price. Priced at Dhs 188/person (why such an unusual figure? 188 is a lucky number in … Read More Yuan In Atlantis | Dim Sum-ing All The Way On A Friday
