Out and about this week at The Lighthouse (and stopping in to say hello at Akiba Dori) in D3. I visited ages ago for lunch, and I’m happy to note that the consistency has held up. They’re offering a fairly amazing 3-course set dinner now, AED200 with drinks that is definitely worth a trip. Similarly, visiting KUSHI by Reif was an easy ‘yes,’ for lunch on Thursday. I’m pleased to advise that portion sizes are massive, and a lot of Chef Reif’s signature flavors are in effect (order the Portobello Kinoko Katsu for a treat).
El Grocer was kind enough to send me products by Marks and Spencer, which are available on the app (save 15% by ordering by September 20th). Not having to leave the house is my favorite form of cooking, how about you?

This weekend, I’m on numerous deadlines, so I’ll be keeping close to home. Next week, I’m venturing out to Kaffee Bloom at 1004, a belated lunch at LPM, and off to brunch at Bull & Bear, my first brunch in ages, provided everything is still compliant with changing rules. I’ll also be sent food as part of a weekly meal plan from Meal Plans by Home Chef.
