My Top Dishes of February 2018.
Not going to lie, gang, it was a slow month. Most of that was intentional and on purpose, as I finished a book, am getting it ready for publication, and started writing my next one (I’m close to 20K words into it so far). Add […]
Oberoi Al Zorah: A modern coastal visit.
Although it may not sound that way, it’s actually been awhile since I’ve spent a night away from my villa. I’m not sure if it’s some form of nesting, or just that I’m wildly comfortable (and productive) with my current status quo, or that friends […]
The Fish House: Revisiting DFC.
We may or may not have already established that my first port of call in Dubai (circa 2007) was Dubai Festival City. Thus, I have an exceptional place in my heart for the entire property. Friendships that started at the golf club course, beautiful weddings […]

Hey gang — I’m not dead. I’ve been busy finishing a book (it’s done!), and well, I think it’s okay for a short break in reviews. I’ve been going almost non-stop for the past…forever, so focusing on getting to the gym and not drinking has […]
Scalini: Four Seasons introduces Italian.
Another day, another Italian restaurant. While Italian might be the new Peruvian in Dubai, my visit to Scalini should mark the final visit to this particular cuisine for the near future, as I’m not sure I can eat another bite of pasta. Carved from what […]
