My Dubai Food Blog : The Farm

If you told me months back that I will be having brunch in the middle of the desert with a very tropical environment, I will tell you right away “ARE YOU KIDDING?”.

But as we all know, everything is possible in Dubai.We drove around (somewhere along) Emirates Road and found this amazing “brunch haven”.

The Farm makes you feel as if you are dining in one of the posh tropical restaurants (with a modern and western touch) in the world. Coupled with a perfect weather and breeze this place is a perfect place to relax, dine and have a good chat with friends (i miss this kind of place).

As a designer, the ambiance of the place always add up to the “i like it” factor. The Farm so far is up there in my Top List.

When we arrived, they have handed us an Ipad which I was hoping to be a souvenir, but sadly it was their menu (genius). The food was amazing also, which includes a nice vegetable chip to munch on while waiting for our orders.

The food was just fine, a bit on the pricey scale, but all in all it was a great experience. During the time the we have visited, the service was a bit of a downgrade (hoping that it was just that time—let’s give them the benefit of the doubt this time).

Would I recommend this place? YES!—-and i think I will go back there before the nice weather will leave us.

Food Blog: Cafe Arabi Abu Dhabi

I have been dreaming to have a place like this. A cafe and a bakeshop in a very homey environment. In my case, i want to have an artist studio with an array of canvass—empty and painted— and furniture that i personally designed and created

ok—nuff about my dream.

Cafe Arabia, embodies part of my dream, but fell short on the whole homey feel..it’s almost there. The moment you entered the patio, I thought I will be smelling the scent of freshly baked carrot cake but instead i got fried fish being served for lunch. I ordered an apple cake and cinnamon milk tea and it was still so-so. Although the food was not that nice, i still recommend this place if you just want a place to hangout and chill after a long day from work (if you’re from abu dhabi) or to rest after long hours of driving from a road trip.
